Military judge’s error in excluding accused’s testimony that alleged rape victim allowed accused to engage in a full, mostly nude, body message of her while they were alone in his house prior to subsequent alleged rape incident, was not harmless beyond a reasonable doubt, considering that government’s case was not particularly strong, and that such evidence could have led to panel’s acceptance as reasonable accused’s belief that alleged victim consented to sexual activity on the night in question. U.S. v. Zak, 65 M.J. 786, Army Ct.Crim.App.,(2007.)

Accused’s guilty plea to larceny was not rendered improvident by the government’s introduction at sentencing of a videotape that contained pretrial statements by accused that were inconsistent with his plea, where videotape did not create a substantial basis for questioning the plea; fact that accused denied any wrongdoing in an early interview with the Coast Guard Investigative Service (CGIS) was of only marginal consequence in light of his subsequent statements and testimony.

In U.S. v. O’Donnell, 65 M.J. 795, C.G.Ct.Crim.App.,(2007.) the court stated that a guilty plea’s providence is only brought into question by inconsistent evidence presented by the government on sentencing if the sentencing evidence creates the appearance of a substantial basis in law or fact for questioning the plea; if the government does so, then the military judge must reopen the Care inquiry to ensure a provident plea.
