PFC Green
Green stands convicted of:
-Conspiracy to commit murder
-Conspiracy to sexual assault
-Premeditated murder, four counts
-Murder committed during the act of sexual abuse, four counts
-Aggravated sexual abuse
-Use of a firearm during a crime of violence, four counts
-Obstruction of justice
A jury of nine women and three men deliberated for a total of ten hours and forty minutes before convicting ex-U.S. Army Private Steven Dale Green on all sixteen counts. Eight of these counts could bring the death penalty.
In 2006 while serving in Iraq, Green and four others raped 14-year-old Abeer al-Janabi, then murdered her, her parents and her 6-year-old sister. Green's four accomplices were convicted in a military tribunal. Two of these men testified during Green's trail, fingering him as the one who instigated the massacre. Green, unlike the other four, entered a plea of not guilty.
