USMA Prep School private court-martialed

WEST POINT – A cadet candidate at the US Military Academy Preparatory
School pled guilty during a general court-martial at West Point on Tuesday.

Private Lawrence Gore pled guilty to five charges of sexual assault under
the Uniform Code of Military Justice. As a result, he was sentenced to
be reduced to the grade of E-1, receive a dishonorable discharge, and
be confined for five years.

The charges arose from criminal misconduct on several occasions involving
a classmate at the Preparatory School in January 2015
