Frankly, I find mind-boggling, your adamant contrarian refusal to give the benefit of the doubt to the guy who does this for a living, has probably interviewed over 1000 recruits in the last 10 years, and recently vetted Brandon Marshall, over a kid who grew up in turmoil,
no doubt surrounded by denials, lies and lawbreakers, has lied on several occasions to the NCAA, possibly has accepted gifts and support he shouldn't have and whose cognition and comprehension is muddled on such mundane tasks as practice times and bringing along his cleats on pro day.
I'll use this example since you're in the infantry (and thank you for your service).
Let's say you're on a house-by-house patrol in Baghdad and a woman of il-repute propositions you after signalinng you to enter her house. Your rejection of the overtures infuriates her and she starts scratching at you in an attack that leads a tell-tale mark. You extricate yourself but a day later she brings charges against you of attempted rape. Your commander wants this to go away and orders you to issue an apology that you are sorry for touching her forcefully (without saying it was to protect yourself).
You've served with your unit for a few months now and everyone knows each other pretty well. You have some comrades come up to tell you that these "he said/she said" charges, which might be investigated are bogus however, you have others who may not like your blunt style who opine that as someone who likes control and the last word, they wouldn't put that past you if you were rejected. You are hurt and upset that not only are they not standing by you, but they're petitioning the CO to take these charges very seriously and suspend your daily activities in the meantime. You wonder why they don't accord you the benefit of the doubt and have your back over the word of an outsider with a track record of questionable behavior since in your mind you've done little other than being assertive, to earn their suspicions. But because you are who you are, no matter how well you've performed, to some who just don't like you because you're you, your version will always ring contrived and false. And there ya have it.
