The email has a physical address at the bottom that turns up a recent Staten Island realty listing. Nice digs.
Their website is no help. And Who.Is tells us nothing because everything is "redacted for privacy."
The FEC shows no money activity in its financial summary but we do get a name and address, just not as nice and not on Staten Island. Logan Kyle Russell's got a nothing internet profile (leaving out the middle name helps) and it's just not worth my time or money to buy an online report.

They can fight it by demanding court-martial, right? But the incentive is not to?
If a service member refuses an administrative reprimand or NJP, they could demand to be tried at court-martial... If service members are tried and convicted by a court-martial and the punishment triggers an appellate review, the case is brought to the respective branch’s Court of Criminal Appeals, such as the Army Court of Criminal Appeals or the Navy-Marine Court of Criminal Appeals. If they are tried and convicted in the appeals court, the case reaches the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces. If a service member is convicted in this court, they would likely receive a dishonorable discharge, a bad-conduct discharge, or, in the case of an officer, a dismissal.

The cost model with all costs for the pilot programs shows that each FEO will cost the government $104,316 per FEO for one year, which is significantly higher than $30,500. None of these costs include the salaries of the FEOs. [More]
