(KPBS) A group is calling for an investigation into East County Congressman Duncan Hunter in light of his claim that he likely killed hundreds of civilians while he was a Marine serving in Iraq.
Members of the local chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) made their case outside Hunter’s El Cajon office Monday. The group said it has collected more than 8,000 signatures asking for the U.S. House of Representatives to investigate Hunter[‘s] actions while in combat.
“I mean it’s clear from the level of things he’s done he should resign,” said CAIR’s executive director Dustin Craun. “He’s not a good representative of this county — someone who’s literally a war criminal should be in prison.”
