Lt. Cmdr. Robert J. Cleary faces charges of conduct unbecoming an officer and gentlemen.
A Navy officer is facing court-martial over allegations he masturbated while sat at his desk and used his government-issued commuter to search for child pornography online.
He also faces two charges of conduct unbecoming an officer and gentlemen after allegedly masturbating at this desk during the same period. He is also accused of posting a handwritten note on his cubicle desk in July 2017 which contained alleged internet search terms including “Jail bait in bikinis, nn Tweenies” and “nipples pre teen girls,” reports Navy Times.
The case against Cleary was referred to a general court-martial by Rear Adm. Yancy Lindsey in February. He approved that felony-level proceedings be brought forward before relinquishing command of Navy Region Southwest the following month, spokesman Kevin Dixon confirmed to Stars and Stripes. The officer has been assigned to the Mine Warfighting Development Center in California since March 2014 and was still on active duty when he was arraigned earlier this year.
