Anti-War YouTube ‘Vet’ Admits He Is Faker

From ABC news..

Remember Jesse McBeth?  It seems so long ago that the lies of this faker were uncovered by blogosphere.  Well Jesse has had his day in Federal court where he has admited he is a fake.

A Washington man, whose claims to have slaughtered civilians as a U.S. Army Ranger in Iraq were seen by millions on YouTube, admitted in federal court in Seattle today that he was a fake and a liar.

Jesse Adam Macbeth, 23, pleaded guilty to charges he faked his war record.

“He was in the Army for 40 days before he was kicked out of boot camp for being unfit,” said U.S. Attorney Jeffrey C. Sullivan.  “He was never in Iraq.”

For all the bad publicity he created against the military, he gets a slap on the wrist.

Macbeth, the phony U.S. soldier who claimed to have committed atrocities, was sentenced to five months in jail.

The article didn’t say if the leftists that used Jesse were at his trial to support him.  More than likely after getting their mileage out of him, they dumped like spoiled meat.

I’m amazed ABC is the one popping this. Seems to me they were one of the “media” outlets that bit on this to start with.

Alot of people won’t remember this story. BUT they will always remember the false story.
