BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

CRS
Docket No: 6287-09
20 July 2009

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant te the provisions of title 10 of the United
States Code section 1552.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 1 July 2009. Your allegations of error and
injustice were reviewed in accordance with administrative
regulations and procedures applicabie to the proceedings of this
Board. Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of
your application, together with all material submitted in support
thereof, your naval record and applicabie statutes, regulations
and policies.

After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire
record, the Board found that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice.

The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 4 May 1991. On
24 February 1993 you were convicted by civil authorities,
pursuant to your pleas of guilty, of first degree murder and
conspiracy to commit capital murder. The court sentenced you to >
confinement for life for murder and confinement for 20 years for
conspiracy to commit capital murder, with the sentences to run
concurrently.

On 20 April 1993 an administrative discharge board recommended
that you be separated with a discharge under other than honorable
conditions by reason of misconduct due to the commission of a
serious offense. After review by the discharge authority, the
recommendation for separation was approved and you were
discharged on 15 June 1993 with a discharge under other than
honorable conditions.

In its review of your application, the Board carefully considered
your contention to the effect that you were innocent of the
charges. As noted above, you pleaded guilty to the charges. In
addition, the Board could not find any evidence in the available
records or your application which corroborates that contention. _
Accordingly, and as you have not demonstrated that it would be in
the interest of justice for the Board to upgrade your discharge,
your application has been denied. The names and votes of the

members of the panel will be furnished upon request.

It is regretted that the circumstances of your case are such that
favorable action cannot be taken. You are entitled to have the
Board reconsider its decision upon submission of new and material
evidence or other matter not previously considered by the Board.
_In this regard, it is important to keep in mind that a
presumption of regularity attaches to all official records.
Consequently, when applying for a correction of an official naval
record, the burden is on the applicant to demonstrate the
existence of probable material error or injustice.

Sincerely,

La

W. DEAN P
Executive Wi tor
