Military Sexual Assault

FILE - In this April 14, 2021, file photo, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin poses for photographers as he arrives at NATO headquarters in Brussels. The Associated Press has learned that a Pentagon panel is recommending that decisions to prosecute service members for sexual assault be made by independent authorities, not commanders. It would be a major reversal of military practice and a change long sought by Congress members. (Kenzo Tribouillard, Pool via AP)
