Air Force Academy Corruption: Evidence that demands a just verdict

It is appalling that the Air Force Academy (Superintendent, Lt. Gen. Silveria) is basing its decision to disenroll these cadets (denying them their degrees) because of an unproven charge of Conspiracy to Commit Obstruction of Justice, when it is clear that these cadets told all witnesses to be truthful in questioning, and the Academy itself may have falsified evidence against them.

This investigation was initiated based on the word of a single freshman accuser, while ten other witnesses granted immunity in exchange for testimony (freshmen who had the same experience as the accuser) told an entirely different story. The witnesses felt threatened and intimidated when AF OSI Agents called them “liars” and threatened their careers by pressuring them to conform to the Academy’s contrived narrative. Asst. Trial Counsel further attempted to coerce the same freshmen witnesses into either signing documents they did not believe in or providing testimony that was not accurate.  

When the defense was days away from a motion to dismiss for Unlawful Command Influence & Prosecutorial Misconduct, and just hours away from an expert sociologist witness having unfettered access to observe Recognition rituals, the Academy, cornered, abruptly dismissed all criminal charges facing the three senior cadets. Hannigan’s defense had already rejected a plea deal because they wanted their day in court. However, Lt. Gen. Silveria did not. Silveria stripped these cadets of their right to Due Process making himself judge and jury. Pulling the case under administrative purview, Silveria accomplished in secret what he could not do in open court. Unyielding in his erroneous opinion that the senior cadets obstructed justice, despite the video and witness immunity testimonial evidence to the contrary (see below), Gen. Silveria disenrolled these cadets.

‪‪Mr. President, 4 AF Cadets falsely accused of “Conspiracy to Commit Obstruction.” A Biased INVESTIGATION seniors not allowed graduation. See video evidence & statements proving these Cadets told witnesses to TELL the Truth. No Obstruction. Justice4AFCadets.com‬

Mr. President, 4 Cadets denied Due Process! Biased INVESTIGATION! No Hazing! Biased Superintendent was going to lose in Court-Martial, and offered a plea deal. Cadets turned it down! They knew they would win – Believe evidence! Justice4AFcadets.com

 Tweets to the Secretary of the Air Force:

‪Madam Secretary, Gen Silveria has attacked 4 Cadets endlessly. Don’t believe OSI report. It omits critical evidence! No Hazing- No Obstruction. Gen Silveria ignores evidence. Continues to report obstruction, but testimony denies this. Help Justice4AFcadets.com‬

‪Madam Secretary, Gen Silveria used fake OSI report to justify his bias. Days away from UCI and Prosc. Misconduct hearing dismisses charges of Hazing & Obstruction. Cadets rejected the plea deal to expose the truth – Due Process denied. Please overturn Gen Silveria.‬

Honorable, Mr./Madam/General/Congress Person/President:

I am aware of what appears to have been a corrupt investigation against four Air Force Cadets regarding Conspiracy to Commit Obstruction. This investigation was initiated on the word of a single freshmen accuser, while ten other Immunity Witnesses (also freshmen and had the same experience) told an entirely different story.

I understand that there was a motion hearing for Unlawful Command Influence and Prosecutorial Misconduct that never saw the light of day. The Air Force Academy Superintendent dropped all the Courts-Martial charges but is disenrolling these cadets for those very charges. On the face of it, this seems vindictive. I ask that you look into this issue and work to determine the truth and overturn the decision of Lt. General Silveria.

Sincerely,
