A mentally ill US soldier, Daniel Sandante, fled to Canada and was deported by Canadian authorities after attempting suicide; the Iraq war veteran and sufferer of severe PTSD was then sentenced to 8 months in the stockade at the end of a brief court-martial at Ft. Carson, Colorado on Monday, November 17, 2008. Upon being released from Army custody Daniel has been working with peace and justice groups in Oklahoma.
