51 - United States v. Warda and Character Evidence

In this episode I discuss the recent Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces case of United States v. Warda, which held that the military judge abused his discretion in denying a defense motion to abate the proceedings when a separate federal agency refused to provide evidence that was relevant and necessary and, therefore, essential to a fair trial.  We then turn to Major Ciara Ryan for a quick discussion on Character Evidence (a powerful tool).
