Judge Orders Release of Detained Marine Veteran Brandon Raub

Breaking: Raub’s Lawyer Says Psychiatrist Threatened to "Brainwash" Brandon

Thursday, August 23rd, 2012

HOPEWELL, Va. (WTVR) – A Hopewell circuit court judge has ordered that a Marine veteran detained over anti-government Facebook posts be released from a psychiatric hospital.

CBS 6 News’ Catie Beck said the judge dismissed the case Thursday against Brandon Raub. The judge said the original petition for Raub’s detention contained no facts. In other words, there was no information on why Raub was being held — and the judge deemed this violated his civil liberties.

As a result, the judge ruled law enforcement has no grounds to hold Raub.

Beck said the judge is in the process of writing an order for Raub’s release. He is expected to be released from a the hospital in Salem, Virginia Thursday afternoon.

And its about time they released Raub .Its not his fault that the truth is bitter.

All the people involved in his kidnapping should have a good look in the mirror,looking past the horns and deep into their inner self,I know they wont like what they see but it will be a start.
