I don't know about that Ruff. The best I can find on it right now is this piece from USA Today which states....

<Ware reviewed evidence against Wuterich in a preliminary hearing known as an Article 32. His recommendation is nonbinding, and the final decision about whether Wuterich should stand trial rests with Lt. Gen. James Mattis, the commanding general overseeing the case at Camp Pendleton.

If Mattis accepts the recommendation for Wuterich and a similar one for one of his corporals, which appears likely based on past practice, no one will face murder charges.>>

The Article 32 is nonbinding and only a recommendation. Has the General actually made a decision on this? Can't find the answer anywhere.....

Looks like the trial can only start once that decision is made. The General's decision determines whether the charges are murder or negligent homicide.....that's what I'm getting from it anyway?
