re: Medic testifies that he, not Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher, Killed ISIS fighter

This shite is effed up:

“Why did you kill him?” Parlatore asked Scott during one point of the cross-examination.

“Because I knew he was going to die anyway,” Scott answered. “I wanted to save him from what was going to happen next to him.”

Scott also told the defense counsel that during his time serving overseas, he had witnessed the Iraqi Emergency Response Division “torture, rape and murder prisoners.”

“Is this why you asphyxiated him?” Parlatore asked. “Yes,” Scott replied.

Why the hell are we over there helping the Iraqis? The medic straight up murdered the ISIS fighter as a mercy killing because he knew the guy would be raped and tortured in Iraqi custody.
