I understand that this is news, but when will I see a headline that reads, "Banker Charged After Deadly Crash," or "Doctor Charged After Deadly Crash," or "(fill in the blank) Charged After Deadly Crash?" Why is their occupation so important. Maybe the headline should have read "Teen Charged After Deadly Crash." People other than Marines do wrong things. Go to the base and find some good things to report on.
