WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio (AP) – An Air Force major general in Ohio who was convicted on one of three specifications of abusive sexual contact allegations has been told he will receive a reprimand and must forfeit $10,910 of monthly pay for five months. Maj. Gen. William Cooley was found guilty Saturday in what was the first-ever military trial of an Air Force general. The weeklong court-martial at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio had three specifications, one accusing Cooley of a forcible kiss and two alleging forcible touching in 2018. The 56-year-old Cooley was convicted of the forcible kissing specification but acquitted of the other two. (Photo: AP)
