Sgt. Maj. Gerardo Trevino was arrested last week and confined in a military brig.
A senior enlisted Marine at the San Diego Recruit Depot is in the brig and facing charges. KPBS military reporter Andrew Dyer has the latest.
Sgt. Maj. Gerardo Trevino was arrested by Naval Criminal Investigative Service agents Sept. 11, the Marines said."An NCIS investigation is still ongoing, and charges have not been preferred at this time," Steve Posy, a base spokesperson, told KPBS in a statement."We will remain transparent on these issues but mindful of not to interfere with administrative or legal processes."
