Las Vegas Review-Journal: Air Force major pleads not guilty to sex charges at Nellis court-martial
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports:
Maj. Charles L. Cox Jr. pleaded not guilty to charges of sexual assault and abuse of an enlisted man in a court-martial proceeding Tuesday at Nellis Air Force Base.
Cox’s defense counsel, Capt. Trenton Norman, entered the pleas for Cox, a nurse in the 99th Medical Operations Squadron at Nellis, as they stood in blue uniforms before Lt. Col. Christopher Schumann, the military judge hearing the case.
Cox is accused of touching the buttocks and anus of an airman first class “with intent to arouse or gratify his own sexual desire” while the man was asleep on Aug. 4, 2012.
