Maj. Jason Watson is currently being held in solitary confinement for 24 hours a day while he awaits trial, as reported by Military.com. This development comes as the Air Force moves forward with a general court-martial against the officer, who has been in jail since August.
The situation surrounding Maj. Watson began on July 1 when he demonstrated on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. He appeared in uniform while carrying a sign that read “Impeach. Convict. Remove.” after he spoke at a news conference to call for the removal of President Donald Trump.
