"Army Chaplain Gets Six Months in Sex Case

Jun 24, 2013

At Fort Bliss, Tex., last week, Maj. Geoffrey Alleyne, a chaplain and 24-year Army veteran, was sentenced by a court-martial jury to six months in jail for repeatedly groping a civilian employee at the West Texas base.

Following the conviction and sentencing the victim in the case went public to charge that her long-standing complaints about Alleyne’s attempts to fondle and kiss her were initially ignored by base officials and other chaplains. "He might have been sentenced and going to jail but I lost," Michelle Ten Eyck told KFOX 14 news in El Paso, Texas."

I worked for the Post Chaplain at Fort Bliss in 86/87. I was not aware of anything like this going on there at that time. I was also at Fort Meade Maryland when a Chaplain was shot dead by his mistress after an afternoon quickie. Earlier in the day he had been notified that he made the list for full bird colonel, it was assumed that he apparently told her that the relationship had to end.

Clergy are normal people, many of them have the same flaws and shortcomings as the rest of us. As a society, the things we allow to go on, the behaviors we condone and the crap we except as entertainment is slowly but surely sending us into a downward spiral. We no longer require personal responsibility, everyone is a victim, and everyone is supposed to get a trophy.

Since I am just as flawed as everyone else I will step off of my soap-box.

Do the best that you can people, treat others the way you would like to be treated (not necessarily how you were treated).

I wish I was surprised, but I am not. Sickening! The other morning the Headline below was on the CNN website in big bold letters.

How in the hell did it get to this point? The military is all about leadership for a good reason and the leadership on this issue is piss poor, which is evidenced in this news story.

T Bird, This is just a sign of the times unfortunately! As long as this country is virtually being driven by SEX it will continue. I think this mother and daughter are being realistic..
