When a service member gets to the point where they're seriously thinking, “I'm done; I can't do this anymore”, I think telling them that they will be tried and put in jail.... I just don't see how that fixes anything. I don't think it's beneficial to the service member. I don't see it as beneficial to the military.
That is not going to produce a soldier, airman or someone who is going to be out there being a benefit in any way whatsoever. It's just going to make them feel worse. To me, it pushes along the decision they make.
