Jury urges prison for midshipman

The decision will be reviewed by academy superintendent Vice Admiral Rodney Rempt.
Kenny Ray Morrison, 24, showed little reaction as the jury’s decision was announced. The jury of seven Navy and Marine Corps officers found Morrison guilty Monday of indecent assault and conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman.
