Trainer bragged of sex, witnesses say
Air Force Staff Sgt. Craig LeBlanc boasted to a colleague that he'd had sex with a trainee in a supply room before she left for technical training school, according to testimony at Thursday's evidentiary hearing against LeBlanc, one of 12 instructors under investigation at Lackland for illicit sexual relationships with trainees.
“I believe he said he's just gotten laid,” said Staff Sgt. Christopher Beck, who ultimately reported the conversation to authorities at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland.
“I was speechless,” Beck said. “I didn't understand.”
Beck testified as part of the Article 32 hearing against LeBlanc, who is charged with aggravated sexual assault, obstruction of justice, adultery, violating a no-contact order, absence without leave and making a false official statement.
An Article 32 hearing, which is similar to a grand jury, can be the first step to a court-martial. If LeBlanc is ultimately found guilty, he could be sentenced to up to 45 years in prison.

But women are still getting punished for reporting rapes. Their male supervisors are often more likely to punish the victims.
The recruits had reason to be afraid of reporting the crimes. Their names are likely to be broadcast in the military newspapers, thus ensuring that they will be subject to scrutiny and/or harrassment as soon as they leave Lackland. It's really sad.
