00:00I was 19, fresh out of high school.
00:02Thought I knew everything that there was to know,
00:04but man, I was really, really wrong.
00:07Five U.S. soldiers stand accused of shocking crimes
00:11that include murdering Afghans for sport.
00:14This was the platoon from hell.
00:17We were smoking, we were high, and Morlock's like,
00:19man, you know, we straight murdered that dude.
00:23You guys set this guy up to get shot.
00:26Whatever.
00:27Right on, man. We gotta kill.
00:28Well, whether, you know, we know he's a bad guy or not,
00:32well, I'm not the only one that's not okay with this.
00:42After the first murder,
00:44everything that I believed in an army was gone.
00:48People on my platoon, they just changed.
00:51Something in them changed.
00:52Specialist Adam Winfield's father, Chris, warned the army,
00:55but tragically, army officials refused to investigate.
00:59His son, now charged in the third killing.
01:02I never wanted to kill anyone, ever.
01:10In the middle of nowhere,
01:12he had the Taliban shooting him at him on one side,
01:14he had his own guys threatening to kill him on his other side.
01:17Of all the people out there,
01:19he was the only one that did anything.
01:21He had guns pointed at him in both directions.
01:24What do you do?
01:34I wish that I could fix it.
01:40There was no way for me not to be a part of it.
01:43It was impossible not to surrender to the insanity of it all.
01:47It's all about getting that first kill
01:49and going home with a mark that says you killed somebody.
01:52We're training you from the day you join
01:54to the day you're out
01:55to kill everything that gets in your way.
02:00Well, then why the hell are you pissed off when we do it?
02:04Well, then why the hell are you pissed off when we do it?
