Last week, former Taliban POW Bowe Bergdahl broke his media silence about his reasons for abandoning his Army unit by way of the popular Serial podcast. And just a few days later, the Army made the decision to try Bergdahl for desertion and misbehavior before the enemy via a general court martial — not the lower-level tribunal that had been recommended in the military's version of a preliminary hearing. Eric Montalvo is a former Marine Corps lawyer who spent 21 years as both a military prosecutor and defense attorney. He now works for the firm Federal Practice Group. In this week's Legal Loop, he talks to Jared Serbu on Federal Drive with Tom Temin about the latest developments in the Bergdahl case, including the Army's sudden decision to try the matter in a general court martial, not a special court martial.
