Military judge rejects two trials in Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair case

A military judge Monday denied a motion to split the court-martial of Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair into two trials and heard other motions during a hearing on Fort Bragg.
Lawyers on both sides of the case - which centers on allegations of misconduct, adultery and forcible sodomy - made more than a dozen motions.
They include routine requests for discovery and an attempt by defense lawyers to invalidate government search warrants.
Sinclair, a former deputy commanding general of the 82nd Airborne Division, is accused of having an illicit affair and engaging in wrongful sexual conduct with several women under his command.
