The Law Firm of Puckett & Faraj, PC wish to thank all the concerned Americans who have written in to express their support for the SEALs, written letters to the senior Military leaders, or donated to the defense funds of the Navy SEALs. We’d also like to thank the military defense counsels, LT Kevin Shea and LT Kristen Anastos, USN whose dedication to justice was unwaivering.

Every single thought, offering of expertise, letter written on the SEAL’s behalf, blog or social network that spread the word, and donation received for the three SEALs has been very much appreciated. The Law Firm of Puckett & Faraj, PC would especially like to thank those who made extra efforts to set up defense funds for the SEALs, organize rally’s, and take their time, effort and money to raise funds for the SEALs. We could not have succeeded without each and every person who volunteered their time.

Thank you one and all for everything you did. This is a great victory for the SEAL and Special Forces communities. May they all continue to do their jobs, unafraid of prosecution from our own government. Thank you for your service to our country!

Neal A. Puckett, Esq. and Haytham Faraj, Esq.

Rally: Saturday March 27, 2010, Scottsdale Arizona

In early September 2009, U.S. Navy SEALs secretly captured one of the most
wanted terrorists in Iraq, Ahmed Hashim Abed, the mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. Now, three of the SEALs who captured him are facing criminal charges because Abed claims he was hit in the stomach by one of the SEALs.

These terrorists are trained to claim abuse despite no physical evidence of such. More importantly, they know the powerful influence of our mainstream media & legal system and are using these facets as tools against us. This tactic with resulting media attention is effective in causing our heroes to question their training and decisions, placing their missions, lives and our security in jeopardy.

Because this story was under reported, a group of patriots started a Facebook group called Americans United Against the Prosecution of 3 Navy SEALs to show solidarity against what we believe to be an inappropriate and politically correct court martial against these SEAL heroes. No evidence has been released or offered to warrant these charges to date. Over 260,000 supporters from all over the world have joined the forum to voice their concern, support and outrage these heroes are facing.

The Navy SEAL advocates have created a fundraising event in Scottsdale, Arizona, to give awareness, show support and to raise money for these SEALs legal costs. Attending this event will be one of the SEALs, Matthew McCabe, his lawyer Neal Puckett and various political figures from across the country to show their support.

A CALL TO ACTION! You are invited to donate, attend and help spread the word to this seemingly and apparent injustice these SEALs are facing. We need YOUR support! They defend us. Now you have the opportunity to defend them!

Visit www.supporttheseals.org for more information and to RSVP to the
event or to donate to their defense funds.

Of the five potential witnesses, two of them are officers who led the SEAL detachment that captured Ahmed Hashim Abed in Fallujah, September 2009. The attorney for SO1 Huertas appeared in court on March 12th to request the military judge stop the proceedings due to the lack of immunity granted to these witnesses.

This motion to abate the proceedings argues that a fair trial of the Navy SEALs cannot proceed unless these 5 Sailors are provided immunity and testify. The military judge order Major General Cleveland to grant immunity to the witness by March 26, 2010 or he would stop the court-martial.

Who:
Rep. Dan Burton (R-IN-05)
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA-46)
Neal Puckett, Lt. Col, USMC (Ret.), attorney for Matthew McCabe

Over a dozen retired Navy SEALs and other special forces personnel

When:
Thursday, March 4, 3:00pm

Where:
The Capitol Visitors Center, Room HVC-201
Washington, DC

Background:
In September 2009, SEALs Matthew McCabe, Julio Huertas, and Jonathan Keefe, were part of a team that captured Ahmed Hashim Abed, the al-Qaeda mastermind behind the murder and mutilation of four American contractors in Fallujah in 2004.

In December 2009 and January 2010, the SEALs were arraigned in military court on charges of abusing Abed and giving false statements to investigators.  At that time, Reps. Burton and Rohrabacher, along with 38 other members of Congress, asked Major General Charles Cleveland to drop the charges, but the effort was unsuccessful.

With the trials set to begin for Huertas and Keefe in April and McCabe in May, Reps. Burton and Rohrabacher will again call for their exoneration and show the signatures of over 100,000 Americans on petitions that have called for the same.  The Representatives plan to deliver those signatures to Maj. Gen. Cleveland and Admiral Gary Roughead, Chief of Naval Operations.

Neal Puckett and Haytham Faraj, attorneys for Matthew McCabe, will provide an update on the case.

Capt. Larry Bailey, a Navy SEAL and combat veteran who served in the U.S. Navy from 1962-1990 will speak about the impact of this case on SEALs in the battlefield.
