Tech Sergeant Robert Andrew Condon (called Andy by his family) had grown up playing superheroes, pretending to save the world from villains.   He was influenced by the men in his family and war stories he heard in his youth.   His Grandpa Condon served in WWII and lost a leg, fighting at the Battle of the Bulge.  His Father left his full scholarship to college and enlisted in the Army, volunteering to serve two tours in Viet Nam.  His maternal Grandfather served in Korea and Japan; as did his four brothers, one of which did not return.  There was no doubt after 911 that Tech Sergeant Condon would choose to serve his country in the military.

 

            He joined the Air Force in April 2003 and wanted to become a para-rescue man, to save lives, but it was not to be.  So, he went into his second choice, military police.  From there he eventually went to school at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, and became an OSI Agent (detective for the Air Force). 

 

            Tech Sergeant Condon excelled in the Air Force and received the highest rating on every evaluation for over 10 years.  He deployed 6 times in defense of his country and had received several medals for his service.  He also had continued his education and had achieved his Associate and Bachelor’s Degree (with Honors) in Criminal Justice.  While overseas he excelled in Counterintelligence and received recognition for this work as well. 

 

His first deployment was in 2005 supporting the Hurricane Katrina Relief Effort.  This deployment meant a great deal to him, as it dealt with American citizens on our own shores

 

In 2007, he served a combat tour in Iraq; where, “SSgt. Condon provided leadership when his patrol was hit by an explosively formed projectile improvised explosive device which wounded his squad leader and two others.  SSgt. Condon first aided by lending self-aid and buddy care of the injured and then took overall command of the patrol.  His leadership led to the prompt security of the disabled vehicle and the expedient medical evacuation of all wounded personnel, who were then treated by medical personnel standing by for their arrival.”

 

  In 2011, he deployed to Afghanistan where, “Agent Condon conducted 42 ground combat support missions outside the base security perimeter focused on intelligence threat collections and leading to the publication of 109 intelligence information reports, neutralizing 21 insurgents targeting Kandahar Airfield.  His expert informant operations identified two Taliban cells, totaling 11 insurgents, liable for direct attacks against Coalition Forces.  Additionally, his efforts led to the identification and cultivation of 5 new informants, developing 11 new targets.  Agent Condon’s ability to fuse threat information with other special intelligence methods was the impetus for a collection effort against a target with direct ties to the Taliban Quetta Shura.  Agent Condon’s tactical expertise enhanced the unit’s deliberate operations, facilitating the capture of 78 Taliban.”  

 

Also, in his career he deployed to Jordan and twice to Africa, where he conducted counterintelligence operations in support of Air Force special operations missions.  

 

            In the spring of 2013, he returned to Hurlburt Field, Florida from Africa.  His leadership suggested to him that he needed to stop deploying so often and concentrate his efforts on criminal investigations stateside, if he wanted to make himself more promotable. 

 

As always, Tech Sergeant Condon threw himself into the mission full force and had uncovered a 9-person drug ring, operating on the base at Hurlburt Field, Airmen selling marijuana and molly to other Airmen.  Suddenly, before his paperwork was even completed on these arrests, his command shipped him back to Africa.  His partner (later made into a victim against her will) continued the cases and took 2 of them to court martial.  The first 2 of the drug dealers were found guilty, stated their actions in court, were incarcerated and serving their time; when Tech Sergeant Condon returned from Africa in August 2013. 

 

            On September 4th of 2013, Tech Sergeant Condon came under investigation for the sexual assault of a woman he had been seeing for a few months.  His conviction stems from this single allegation that was completely contradicted by the evidence.     

 

For Example:  The injuries she claimed she had, did not exist:

 

            She claimed that he inflicted multiple injuries all over her body.   When she went to the hospital to report this “assault”, just a few hours later, it was documented that she had not a single injury on her body. 

 

            In an effort to validate her claims, investigators flew in a special subdermal camera from Washington.  They knew this special camera was working, because they could see the subdermal imprints of her tattoos below the skin.  This camera, which can see up to 3cc below the surface of the skin, did not reveal any trauma. 

           

         During her vaginal examination there were no signs of vaginal trauma nor any signs of consensual sexual contact.  On the DNA swabs, neither his DNA or semen was found in her vaginal region or mouth.   

 

All of this supported Tech Sergeant Condon’s statements that there was no sexual contact that evening, and certainly not a violent attack.

 

 

Destruction of evidence, that would have proven his innocence:

 

            When she spoke with AFOSI agents, she gave them a burner phone with only 5 days of communication on this phone between Tech Sergeant Condon and herself.  Even on this phone, she deleted 7 messages of a sexual or romantic nature, to further hide the truth of their relationship.

 

            Anyone that knows anything about cell phones, knows that the same messages from the sender’s phone will be on the receiver’s phone as well.  However, when they collected his phone with over 55 days of communication between the two of them, saw the true nature of their relationship as overwhelmingly consensual – that phone was destroyed while in their custody and these messages were lost “forever”. 

 

 

Why, did she do this?

            It was later discovered that this woman had entered the Air Force hiding a previous felony level conviction.  Although the Defense requested background checks on all parties involved in this case, the AFOSI agents investigating either failed to find this conviction or more likely, failed to disclose it to the Defense.  Disclosing this conviction would have shown that this complainant already had a history of lying to the Air Force to achieve her own goals.

            However, in 2013, when she made this accusation, she was undergoing a top-secret security clearance for her job with the Special Operations Command.  If this conviction had not already been found, it would soon be found, and she knew that.

So, she made her accusation to save herself punishment, separated from the Air Force, and has been paid ever since – because her false allegation of sexual assault provides this as a previous military sexual assault survivor.  

 

 

The Air Force Investigator’s continue a bogus complaint:

 

            Instead of dropping this case, Air Force OSI (Office of Special Investigations) agents placed Tech Sergeant Condon under investigation.  They confiscated his phone and contacted virtually every woman he had ever known in an attempt to find or create victims to save their case.  They contacted women that he had dated in high school a dozen years before.

 

These investigators eventually contacted and interviewed four additional women whom he had previously dated and with whom he had a consensual sexual relationship.  Every single one of these women signed sworn statements stating all that everything that had happened between them and Tech Sergeant Condon had been consensual.

 

Sounds like a pretty open and shut case, right?  Here’s what happened next…

 

Manipulating Witnesses & Altering Statements

 

One of these women stated that she was “100% willing every time” and that anytime she would tell him to stop, he would stop “a split second later.”
 

An Air Force OSI agent met this woman at Starbuck’s, where she gave him a typed statement that she had agreed to make for the agent.  She was told that what she had typed did not meet the level of any crime and then he told her to change her sworn statement because it did not sound enough like sexual assault.  She crossed out a portion of her typed statement and hand wrote in as directed. 

 

She followed these instructions and produced an incriminating sworn statement that was used to place him in pre-trial confinement, essentially taking away his ability to assist in his own defense.  He remained in pre-trial confinement for 344 days, awaiting trial; violating his constitutional right to a speedy trial, not once but twice. 

 

At the time of his trial, he was found NOT GUILTY of all charges alleged by this complainant, as her text message to her friend the following morning stated that she “had fun with Rob” the night before – the same night that AFOSI agents had her allege was a sexual assault.  These text messages would have been available to the agents, to ensure that she was a   sexual assault victim – however they did not bother to investigate anything that might prove his innocence – they simply didn’t ask for them.  Sadly, this young lady was put through the embarrassment and stress of this trial, not because she was a sexual assault victim, but because she was being used by the Air Force for their own agenda.    
 

Two more of the women (one of whom was Tech Sergeant Condon’s ex-wife), who signed sworn statements saying everything was consensual, were later called and interviewed telephonically by an Air Force Captain.

 

Nobody knows what was said on these phone calls.  They were not recorded and the only other witness was told to leave the room.  Yet after these calls, both women, for reasons unknown, changed their stories and signed new sworn statements alleging sexual assault. 

 

And if these agents can’t create “victims” thru coercion, there are always other ways . . .

 

What happens to women who don’t follow the narrative:
 

One of the four women who gave a sworn statement of consent stuck to her guns and refused to change her story.
 

Here’s how she was treated…

 

During an interview with OSI agents, she asserted several times that she did not feel like a victim.   She should know, she was a trained OSI Special Agent herself and had just completed the Advanced Sexual Assault Investigation course.
 

She later said that during this interview, she was “bullied” by OSI agents who took her phone from her against her will and told her she was victim of sexual assault.  When she expressed her discomfort with this, one agent began “criticizing” her.   After this interview, they allowed her to keep her phone.
 

About a month later, when she stopped cooperating with this bogus investigation, they threatened her with criminal charges for not turning over the phone they allowed her to keep.
 

They said if she turned over her phone, they could issue her a grant of immunity for “not turning over evidence.”  This forced her to agree to a second interview to get her phone back.
 

You have no say in whether you are a victim.
 

As if the slimy behavior of these agents isn’t despicable enough, the Convening Authority (the commander in charge of establishing a court martial) only perpetuated this nonsense.
 

Despite the fact that this “victim” said she did not feel like she was sexually assaulted and that she was responsible for her sexual encounters with Tech Sergeant Condon…

 

The Convening Authority ordered her to testify as a victim at his trial against her will.
 

Being active duty Air Force, she had to comply with this order.

 

She even wrote a letter to the convening authority in which she asked that Tech Sergeant Condon not be charged and if she were forced to testify as a victim, it would be bad for her mental health.   I imagine as a sworn law enforcement officer, it would be hard on your mental health to get on the witness stand and testify to things you believe to be lies.

 

This request fell on deaf ears. (possibly link the letter here)

 

 

What was the Air Force agenda?

 

            Once Tech Sergeant Condon was place into pretrial confinement and more than 100 days before he would be charged with any crime; the Convening Authority (Colonel West) went to the military judge and demanded that all nine drug cases that Tech Sergeant Condon had charged, be dismissed.  Even the 2 that had already been through their court martials and found guilty.  Remember: as part of their court martials, they had admitted in court their guilt – so guilty men were being freed – while Tech Sergeant Condon was just being investigated.

 

            The Air Force made the decision, before Tech Sergeant Condon was charged with any crime, let alone found guilty, to allow nine drug dealers on their base to go free.  How could they then allow Tech Sergeant Condon to go free?  The answer is that they could not.  They had already decided that Tech Sergeant Condon would be found guilty, despite the evidence to the contrary. 

 

            And Tech Sergeant Condon’s partner, the one that went to trial while he was away in Africa during the court martials of the first 2 drug dealers – well she was forced to be a victim against her will and so not considered reliable to continue those prosecutions. 

 

            When the smoke cleared, Tech Sergeant Robert Condon, who on one of his last deployments facilitated the capture of 78 Taliban insurgents, was sentenced to 30 years at the USDB at Ft. Leavenworth, KS.

 

 

The Air Force was able to appear hard on sexual assault suspects to Congress.

They were able to hide the fact that drug dealers were operating on their base.

And, Colonel West was promoted to General West.

 

            To achieve this, they only had to sacrifice one Tech Sergeant.  They just needed to erase the previous 29 years of no criminal history.  The previous 10 years in the Air Force where he was never brought up for any disciplinary action.  Undo the vetting process done by the OSI originally to vet him for the position of Special Agent. Just sacrifice my son’s entire life and future. 

 

What if it were your son?
