Expert says Green suffered brain damage

By Carrie Pond

Paducah, KY – A neuropsychologist says the ex-Ft. Campbell soldier facing a possible death sentence for rape and murder in Iraq has brain damage in the areas that control impulses. The Director of Neuropsychology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine testified in the sentencing phase of former Private First Class Steven Green. A jury convicted Green last week of raping and killing an Iraqi girl and her family.
