FORT HOOD, Texas, Dec. 4 (UPI) -- A Texas soldier was convicted in a court-martial of adultery and patronizing a prostitute after allegations he helped run a military prostitution ring.
Army Master Sgt. Brad Grimes was ordered reprimanded and reduced in rank by one pay grade, from E-8 to E-7, the Austin (Texas) American-Statesman reported Wednesday. The sentence is far lighter than what Grimes could have faced -- a year in confinement, reduction in rank to private and a bad conduct discharge.
