Monica Benderman Interview

Posted by Mary Mancini on June 20, 2006 under Uncategorized |

Last Monday we interviewed Monica Benderman who is the wife of Sgt. Kevin Benderman, a conscientious objector who was convicted of desertion and sentenced to 15 months in the brig for refusing to deploy to Iraq for his second tour.

Their story is heartbreaking and moving and Monica’s retelling of it is eloquent and heartfelt. Thank you for being our guest, Monica.

Listen to the interview.

Kevin and Monica’s websites are www.bendermandefense.org, where you will find three direct ways you can support Kevin, and www.bendermantimeline.com, which is a chronology of facts surrounding his conscientious objection case.

More information about becoming a conscientious objector can be found at Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors (CCCO).
