The Army has decided to charge a northeast Georgia soldier with murdering an Iraqi detainee. 25-year-old Christopher Shore of Winder faces a third degree murder charge. Shore and his platoon sergeant are accused of killing the detainee during a nighttime raid in a village near the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk. Shore testified that his platoon sergeant ordered him to quote “finish” killing the Iraqi man, but that he intentionally missed and only fired because he was afraid of openly disobeying an order from the sergeant.
