Retired Marine speaks out in support of Maj. Matt Golsteyn, charged in Afghanistan killing: 'He is not a murderer!'

"A retired U.S. Marine who worked with former Green Beret Mathew Golsteyn — who’s charged with murdering a suspected Afghan bomb maker — recalls the once-decorated hero as extremely respectful and unlikely to slay in cold blood.
"Emir Hadzic‏, a retired infantry gunnery sergeant who has served in Afghanistan and Iraq, worked briefly with Golsteyn at the 29 Palms training camp in the Mojave Desert in California.
“ 'He chose to take time away from his family to train my Marines in Unconventional Warfare, in prep for our Afghan deployment,” Hadzic tweeted in a message of support Sunday. “His love for fellow servicemen and tremendous respect for Afghans was crystal clear. He is not a murderer!”
"Hadzic told the New York Daily News on Monday what it’s like to serve in Afghanistan — including what could have happened if the alleged bomb maker was let go. He said a murder charge does not make sense, even if Golsteyn did kill the man, as he has admitted.
“ 'If he violated anything, it would be rules of engagement,” Hadzic said. “I think that he knew that this person that he killed was a bad actor.' ” . . .
