SASC hearing on sexual assault

C-Span video of today's Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on sexual assault can be found here. Scroll to the lengthy remarks of Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY); they are riveting. "I don't think you [the Judge Advocates General] should fight me on this," she said, referring to her proposal to transfer disposition authority for major offenses from commanders to trained military prosecutors outside the chain of command.
