Article 89—Disrespect toward a superior commissioned officer

Elements.
(1) That the accused did or omitted certain acts or used certain language to or concerning a certain commissioned officer;

(4) That the accused then knew that the commissioned officer toward whom the acts, omissions, or words were directed was the accused’s superior commissioned officer.

(5) That, under the circumstances, the behavior or language was disrespectful to that commissioned officer.

It has come to this courts attention that LTJG Eugene Williams USN has, is or may be under psychiatric care, so

Pursuant to 18 USC § 4241 - Determination of mental competency to stand trial to undergo postrelease proceedings

If, the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant is presently suffering from a mental disease or defect rendering him mentally incompetent to the extent that he is unable to understand the nature and consequences of the proceedings against him or to assist properly in his defense, the court shall commit the defendant to the custody of the Subsim Psychiatric Hospital.

When the director of the facility in which a defendant is hospitalized pursuant to subsection (d) determines that the defendant has recovered to such an extent that he is able to understand the nature and consequences of the proceedings against him and to assist properly in his defense, he shall promptly file a certificate to that effect with the clerk of this court

[Armistead]

To Capt. Goose.

It has come to my attention that LTJG Eugene Williams was previously ordered by this court to be admitted to Subsim Psychiatric Hospital
to determine "combat fitness". That this court to this date has not received an approval of fitness form as demanded. Please determine
if LTJG Eugene Edwards is still in the custody of Subsim Psychiatric Hospital


Regarding further charges against LTJG Williams by Dr. Steve O.L.D, I hear by order LTJG Eugene Williams to be evaluated by Dr. Steve O.L.D. to determine if he is capable to stand trial regarding charges made by Dr. Steve O.L.D. If LTJG Eugene Williams has been found capable of combat
by Dr. Steve O.L.D, and also found competent to stand trial of the second offense by Dr. Steve O.L.D, I order him taken in custody and delivered
to this court for trial. I then also order counsel on his behalf and appoint Dr. Steve O.L.D to represent him.

I also need you to research the law, if If LTJG Eugene Williams is found mentally incompetent in the first offense, but mentally competent in the second offense, is he mentally competent to face the second offense while being mentally incompetent in the first offense at the same time?

Admiral Armistead,
We have just received confirmation below that LTJG Williams is still in SPH, although there appears to be a question of the name of the facility.

By the way Admiral, do you have any relatives that work on base?
Capt. Goose, USN

Capt. Goose.

Please determine the following"

Where is LTJG Williams being held?

Regarding this charge, charges were filed by Dr. Steve O.L.D {or his office} against LTJG Williams / Article 89—Disrespect toward a superior commissioned officer based on the following statements made to Dr. Steve by LTJG Williams.


"Does LTCMDR Williams get to return to the USS Grenadier or not?!
Uh...

Damn....forgot you were the Office Assistant too...
*strips to underwear*

That's as far as I'll go. If you want more, you'll have to pay.

It's your job because the court appointed you to perform this task.
The Admiral needs an answer. "

The question before this court is did LTJG Williams use the emoticon " ". which along with his statements does indeed warrant the charge of "Disrespect toward a superior"

As to the charge of mental competency, the court previously only charged him of incompetency of combat fitness. If he is found mentally incompetent of the first charge, was he mentally competent generally before the first or second charge? If he was generally competent after the first charge, then this court can prosecute him for the second charge. However, if he again became mentally incompetent after the second charge, even being competent before the charge, is he competent now? If not, he will need further evaluation by Dr. Steve OLD.

Please find out if Dr. Steve did indeed file said charges or if it was done by a member of his office.

Please bring in LT. Les Green for questioning to this court.

It is no concern to me or this court if I have relatives on this base at this time....

Admiral Armistead.

No, have him report here for a few questions, based on his answers, we may need another hearing.

At the moment I need the question of Dr. Steve answered.

Did he file charges against LTJG Williams?

If so, he was assigned to defend LTJG Williams, does he plan to prosecute as well? If so, will he be spell checking as well?

If Dr. Steve doesn't care and just stirring things up and has no further desire to be involved, then I will drop all charges against LTJG Williams, except the first charge and any new charges that may arise.
