COVID-19 and military justice (USS Theodore Roosevelt)

Hon. Lou Leon Guerrero
Governor of Guam
What happens when a sailor violates quarantine? We will soon find out, judging by this article in the Pacific Daily News. Excerpt:
Surveillance footage captured a USS Theodore Roosevelt sailor leaving the hotel room and violating quarantine orders, according to Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero.

The sailor is under investigation, Joint Region Marianas Commander Rear Adm. John Menoni said on Monday.

Menoni also said that the sailor was taken back to Naval Base Guam

“According to (Menoni), the individual broke free of his room but never left the confines of the hotel. The individual was immediately returned to Naval Base Guam and is subject to discipline under the Uniformed [sic] Code of Military Justice,” Leon Guerrero said.

“It was caught on camera and the person was removed from the hotel and sent back to the naval facility,” the governor said at Tuesday’s press conference.
