NEWS ALERT - Two soldiers arraigned

U.S. Army said Thursday that two soldiers will be arraigned May 20 on criminal charges stemming from the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse case.

The military set the arraignment date for Staff Sgt. Ivan Frederick II and Sgt. Javal S. Davis. Charges against the two soldiers were announced Wednesday.

At the arraigment, they must enter pleas of guilty or not guilty to the charges. The military said the date and venue for their trials have not been set.

Spc. Jeremy C. Sivits, of Hyndman, Pa., goes on trial May 19 before a special court-martial, which cannot levy as severe a sentence as a general court-martial which Frederick and Davis face.
