Legal Question in Military Law in Kentucky
Soldier Needs Advice
My boyfriend is a Staff Seargent with 14 years of service and asked me to post this. After being harassed by his chain of command he went to Mental Health and told them he was having homicidal thoughts of killing his chain of command . They put him on sleeping pills and told him to go home. He went to see a civilian doctor and was involuntary commited to a state mental hospital. After being there for 2 weeks he was discharged with a reccomendation from his doctor(a retired brigadier general) that he be discharged because of personality disorder and a MMPI(personality test) has been conducted. When he was returned to Fort Campbell his commander charged him with communicating a threat and put him in jail. Is there any way that his mental state can help him out of this? Now that he is heavily medicated he is fine and is not having these thoughts. It took the medicine time to work and even the mental health doctors said wow something must be wrong with you the medicines they have put you on at the hospital. So if anyone has any advice or any insight into what will happen to him please let me know. My father is an attorney, but military law is foreign to him of course and we really would like to find out more about this for him.
