The prisoner dies in their custody&mdash;and the SEALs from Alpha Platoon accuse their chief, Eddie Gallagher, of war crimes.</p> <p>The accusations are one more scandal in the SEAL community, which is hurting after nearly two decades of war. What is happening to the Navy SEAL?</p> <p>In 2018, a group of Navy SEALs broke ranks and accused their chief, Eddie Gallagher, of murder&mdash;sucking them all into the biggest war crimes trial in a generation. Did a Navy SEAL cross the line in Iraq? Dan Taberski (&ldquo;Running from COPS&rdquo;) takes you inside that courtroom for the first time, peeling back the curtain on how America wages its wars now and revealing the story that the media covering the trial blew right past. Through intimate conversations with over 50 special operators, the series explores just how blurred the line between right and wrong has become in the forever wars&mdash;and what that&rsquo;s doing to the hearts and minds of those we send to fight them.</p> <p>An Apple original podcast produced by JigSaw productions.</p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-line/id1560743789">Listen and subscribe</a> on Apple Podcasts.</p>
