Army Officer found Not Guilty at Article 15

I have been representing an Army Captain who came up hot on a urinalysis for THC. He swore he had no idea how it happened, and we did some digging. Turns out he had been to a music festival in Atlanta. When he got home there was a batch of cookies on the kitchen table that his roommate had left there. You guessed it. One of his roommate’s friends had made “special cookies” and my client unwittingly ingested them. We got statements from the roommate, the “baker” and one other. My client accepted adjudication at Article 15, where the CG found him not guilty of the charge of wrongful use of marijuana. My client starts law school in the fall, so this is a great result for him.
