This Report Says Black and Hispanic Service Members Are More Likely to Face Trial
Men in the military are much more likely to go to court-martial than women, according to recently compiled data, and black or Hispanic service members of either gender are more likely to face a trial than their white counterparts. However, once service members get to trial, the likelihood of a conviction is nearly the same across all demographic backgrounds.
Those are the key findings of a Government Accountability Office study released Thursday.
