Army Scam: Congress Wants Review of Army Recruiting (Pt 4)
01:42  - 2 years ago
There's new information on an exclusive NewsChannel 5 investigation of Army recruiters. Now, members of a congressional committee are asking that the Army give a full report about the Dishonorable Deceptions that we caught on hidden camera. The request from a House Armed Services subcommittee comes in a letter, signed by both Democrats and Republicans, to the Secretary of the Army. In it, they ask the Army to explain what they call the "troubling" findings of our NewsChannel 5 investigation. Our hidden cameras caught recruiters urging a potential recruit to lie about his use of psychiatric medications... in this case, Zoloft... for depression. It follows the suicide of Private Jay Mallard, who killed himself during basic training after -- his family says -- a recruiter urged him to lie about his mental illness to get into the Army.
