"We miss him every day," Tur's sister, Aline Byrnes, said after the court proceeding, according to the station. She said the matter"has been an emotional, draining and traumatic time for our family."by the Navy in January 2019.
The incident kicked off at a party at the Guantanamo officers' club, where Tur yelled at his spouse and Nettleton, accusing them of having an affair, according to an indictment filed in the case. But when questioned by investigators, Nettleton falsely claimed that he last saw Tur at the officers' club, prosecutors said. Nettleton said nothing about the fight at his house or the allegation that he was having an affair with Tur's wife, according to prosecutors.
"Today's verdict demonstrates the department's steadfast commitment to holding accountable those who abuse their positions of public trust and obstruct justice," Benczkowski said.
