Army Specialist Leo Church was sentenced to 8 months for going AWOL to support his family. Shortly after completing A.I.T. Spec. Church was informed of his families’ dire financial situation, and went AWOL to attempt to solve this issue, after being rebuffed by his command. During the subsequent trial and time spent fighting for his freedom, it was decided that his youngest child would need to be put up for adoption.
