The median confinement was 4 months, down from 1.8 years in 2016–2018\. 50% of cases were contested, the same as the Air Force rate. Based on 10 cases · 2021–2023 · Air Force records · data updated October 24, 2026 ## Most Cases Were Tried at the Highest Court Level 8 of the 10 cases were general courts-martial. That is 80%, compared with 56% in the Air Force as a whole. A general court-martial can impose any lawful sentence, including long confinement and a dishonorable discharge. A special court-martial caps confinement at one year and cannot impose a dishonorable discharge. The accused were also more senior than in the rest of the Air Force: 3 junior enlisted members, 5 NCOs, and 2 officers. ## Shorter Confinement Than in 2016–2018 9 of the 10 convictions included confinement. The median term was 4 months, close to the Air Force median of 5 months. A quarter of the terms were 9 months or longer. In 2016–2018, the median confinement at Robins AFB was 1.8 years. A punitive discharge followed 8 of 9 enlisted convictions then, and 5 of 8 in 2021–2023\. With so few cases, a handful of trials can move these figures, so they show direction only. All sentences here are adjudged sentences, before any plea-agreement cap, clemency, or appeal. | | 2016–2018 | 2021–2023 | | ----------------------------- | --------- | --------- | | Cases | 12 | 10 | | Contested (of pleas recorded) | — | 50% | | Convictions with confinement | 91% | 90% | | Median confinement | 1.8 years | 4 months | | Punitive discharge (enlisted) | 8 of 9 | 5 of 8 | | General courts-martial | 100% | 80% | ## Pleas and Verdicts 5 accused pleaded guilty and 5 contested at least one charge.
