Why does this upset me?
(AP) - Events leading up to an U.S. Army deserter's release Saturday from military prison:
January 1965: U.S. Army Sgt. Charles Robert Jenkins, then 24, disappears across the Korean Peninsula's Demilitarized Zone separating North Korea and South Korea while on patrol. 1970s: Jenkins' voice is heard on anti-U.S. propaganda broadcasts blasted from North Korea across the DMZ. He is later identified as an actor in anti-American films produced by the North. 1978: Hitomi Soga, a 19-year-old Japanese nurse, is abducted by North Korean spies. In North Korea, Jenkins later becomes Soga's English teacher. August 1980: Jenkins and Soga marry in North Korea. They later have two daughters. 1996: Pentagon confirms that Jenkins and three other suspected deserters are still alive in North Korea. September 2002: Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi meets North Korean leader and North admits to kidnapping 13 Japanese nationals to teach communist agents. October 2002: North Korea allows Soga and four other surviving Japanese abductees to go home. July 9, 2004: Jenkins and his two daughters fly to Jakarta, Indonesia, for a reunion with Soga. July 18, 2004: Jenkins, Soga and their two daughters arrive in Tokyo. September 11, 2004: Jenkins surrenders at U.S. Army base Camp Zama. November 3, 2004: Jenkins pleads guilty to desertion and aiding the enemy at court-martial at Camp Zama south of Tokyo. Sentenced to 30 days in jail. November 27, 2004: Jenkins released from jail five days early for good behavior. Are we to now give this coward amnesty and allow him to return to America? No! I think we should send him back to North Korea. Bill the North Koreans for the air fare necessary in getting him there. Bill the North Koreans also with the cost of prosecution and cost of lodging, clothing and food we so gratuitously gave this worm since he has been in our custody with first class room and board charges for the last twenty-five days.
