Biography

Patrick Hart was a US Army sergeant who publicly opposed the Iraq War while seeking refuge in Canada. He later returned voluntarily and was imprisoned following military prosecution for his refusal to deploy.

Case

Charges: Desertion following refusal of Iraq deployment
Sentenced: March 2011
Incarcerated: 2011
Sentence: A March 27, 2011 support notice identifies him in Christian County Jail after sentencing the previous week to twenty-five months. Later reporting confirms completed military imprisonment and release. Conflicting chronology prevents entering a reliable release date or actual total served. Military discharge is separate from jail release.
