United States v. Spenhoff

OPINION OF THE COURT

GAMBOA, Judge:

Appellant was convicted, contrary to his pleas, by a military judge sitting as a general court-martial, of maiming a girl by burning *773her buttocks. Article 124, UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. § 924 (1988). His approved sentence is a bad conduct discharge, confinement for 42 months, forfeiture of $500.00 pay per month for 42 months, and reduction to E-l. Appellant claims the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the findings of guilty and argues that his sentence is unduly severe. Finding neither argument persuasive, we affirm.
