Looks like the espionage charges against Muslim chaplin James Yee have evaporated:

According to this Fox News (!) story, the charges against him now are "adultery and storing pornography on a government computer".

Yee's lawyer, Eugene Fidell, said he was not told of the new charges. "I will look forward to seeing what they say because I haven't heard anything," he said.

And he's been released from custody and allowed to return to duty. Guess he can't be much of a threat to national security....

Well that was sure a sharp turn of events. I wonder why his charges got dismissed.

I think the other charges are still standing, too.

I don't know the status of adultry under Muslim law that he apparantly follows.

[J-Excel]

Maybe they're hoping his congregation stones him to death.

nothing worse than a chaplain who gets stoned and looks at pornography.......

It's probably one of those porno popups that everyone gets.
