FORT HOOD, Texas - A US Army reservist convicted of attaching wires to an Iraqi prisoner in a photographed scene that outraged the international community has been sentenced to six months in prison.
A military jury at the nation's largest Army base recommended a six-month prison term for Sabrina Harman, 27, less than the maximum of five and a half years. The prosecution had asked the jury for a three-year sentence.
Harman was credited, however, with 51 days already served.
She also will receive a bad conduct discharge.
