After a brief yet terse tribunal that lasted only 3 hours and saw a bitter, resentful, and combative John Brennan battling Rear Adm. Darse E. Crandall, who presented the military’s case on behalf of the U.S. Navy Judge Advocate General’s Corps, a three-officer panel formed of 1 male and 2 females convicted the former CIA director of murder and treason and sentenced him to be hanged.
At 10:30 a.m., military police escorted a handcuffed Brennan into GITMO’s south courtroom and seated him at the counsel table where his legal advocate, David H. Anderson of Howrey LLP, awaited his arrival.
From the moment Brennan entered the courtroom, he scowled menacingly at both Rear Adm. Crandall and the three officers charged with weighing the merits of the case against him. His scrunched face and sour puss regarded them with what can be described only as hateful contempt.
