A Marine on Trial (Kindle Single)

After a flawed sexual assault investigation, a Naval Academy instructor fights to prove he has done nothing wrong. But did he?

Innocent. Thatâ€™s what Marine Maj. Mark Thompson declared the first time he met with Washington Post reporter John Woodrow Cox. Heâ€™d been fighting to prove it ever since two young women accused the former history instructor at the U.S. Naval Academy of having sex with them while they were students. One of the women said the 2011 liaison was consensual and part of an ongoing relationship. The other called it rape. In 2013 at his court-martial, a nine-member jury acquitted Thompson of the sexual assault charge but still found him guilty of charges including conduct unbecoming an officer and indecent conduct. But Thompsonâ€™s story didnâ€™t end there â€” and what happened to him next, involving deep faults in the military justice system, a critical missing piece of evidence, and belated confessions, makes his story unlike any other.

John Woodrow Cox is a reporter on the local enterprise team at The Washington Post. Prior to joining the Post, he worked at the Tampa Bay Times in Florida and at the Valley News in New Hampshire. He attended the University of Florida, earning degrees in journalism and business. In 2014, he won first and second prize in the Society for Features Journalismâ€™s Short Feature category and was named a finalist for Scripps Howardâ€™s Ernie Pyle Award for Human Interest Storytelling.
