Trump pardons a US soldier who killed an unarmed Iraqi prisoner during an illegal interrogation
Former American soldier stripped Ali Mansur naked before fatally shooting him in what was seen as a revenge killing of an innocent man.
Michael Behenna was convicted in 2009 for unpremeditated murder of Ali Mansur, a suspected Al-Qaeda detainee. He is among the tainted US servicemen who have found a savior in shape of Trump. But a military interrogation did not find any conclusive evidence linking Mansur to the explosion in which Behenna lost two of his friends.
A military court convicted Behenna of the unpremeditated murder, sentencing him to 25 years in prison.
