Four U.S. Troops charged with soldier cruelty

A 19 year old soldier named Keiffer P. Wilhelm, shot himself inside a portable toilet a few days after arriving in Iraq. He was harrassed because he was over weight and the Sgt.'s were extremely hard on him. He stopped going around crowded areas to prevent further harrassment.

The four guys, "Sgt. Enoch Chatman, Staff Sgt. Bob Clements, Sgt. Jarrett Taylor, and Spc. Daniel Weber were all of B Troop, 2nd Squadron, 13th Calvary Regiment from Fort Bliss, Texas."They were picking on keiffer every day because he was over weight. They were also accused of picking on other soldiers as well. They are being charged with false statements, cruelty and mistreatment and reckless endangerment. If they are found guilty of the charges against them, they are all facing a good amount of time in prison.

I think these soldiers deserve what they being charged with. It is not right to treat anyone in a terrible way at all. People should treat everyone how they want to be treated.
