The “kill team murders” were a series of murders carried out by members of the 3rd Platoon, Bravo Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry Regiment, and 5th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division. They were based at FOB Ramrod in Maiwand, in Kandahar Province during the war in afghanistan. In 2010, three innocent afghanistan villagers, (including a child) were murdered in cold blood by,

PFC. Andrew Holmes

Staff Sgt. Calvin Gibbs (not pictured in thumbnail)

Cpl. Jeremy Morlock

Specialist. Adam Winfield

These four men engaged in violence on the population of afghanistan simply out of their own hatred for what they perceived as the enemy (unarmed farmers and elderly). They have three known victims all claimed overseas during the war.

Gul Mudin.

Gul Mudin was a 15 year old boy, having lived in afghanistan his entire life in the village of La Mohammad Kalay. In January 2010 Gul was out doing work on his fathers farm when Jeremy Morlock and Andrew Holmes approached him. They ordered the boy to stand still, with him stood still, the two proceeded to throw a frag grenade at him. After the explosion they shot the boy multiple times with standard issue M4 carbine rifles until he was dead. Attention was immediately drawn to the commotion, and the two fabricated a story about this lone child wandering up to them with a grenade of his own, about to throw. Morlock claimed to his superior, “i had to shoot the guy”. Specialist Adam Winfield would later claim they bragged to him about the murder. Afterwards, as is standard procedure amongst US combat kills overseas, the soldiers proceeded to strip the boy of his jacket and cut his clothing to document wounds, also documenting the iris and fingerprints of those very same victims.

The soldiers then took turns posing with the body of the boy, with Staff Sgt. Calvin Gibbs even taking out a razor, and removing one of the boys fingers as a personal trophy, something he was well known to do.

I have much less info on their latter two murders.

Marach Agha

On February 22, using thermal imagery, the soldiers discovered Marach Agha curled in a ball by a roadside. The soldiers killed him and kept part of his skull as a trophy.Morlock pleaded guilty for his death. The Army later said it believed Marach Agha to be deaf or mentally disabled.

Mullah Adahdad

On May 2, 2010, Gibbs, Morlock, and SPC Adam Winfield attacked and killed Mullah Adahdad with a grenade and gunfire in front of the man's wife and children, Gibbs amputated and kept the man's finger. Three days after Adahdad was murdered, members of a Stryker platoon returned to his village. Tribal elders had complained to Army officers that the cleric had been unarmed and that the shooting was a setup.

Later, Adam Winfield would come forward and re-tell the events leading to Adahdad's murder. As told by Winfield, Sgt. Gibbs and Cpl. Morlock brought him out that day specifically to find a civilian to murder, after a minor amount of recon they would come to settle on Adahdad, who was alone sat in a ditch. According to Winfield, Gibbs, Morlock and himself ducked behind cover overlooking the villager, Gibbs instructed them to fire into the air, yell out “grenade” and then open fire on the man. They would then throw a grenade of theirs at the man, and upon inspecting his body plant another, undetonated grenade, claiming it was his. On Morlocks command, they enacted their cruel plot exactly as instructed, with Gibbs even firing two more rounds into the mans head at point blank range. Immediately after the murder, Staff Sgt. Gibbs told Specialist Winfield he was a “made man”. Specialist Winfield and Cpl. Morlock would later come to claim feeling coerced by Staff Sgt. Gibbs, even claiming to be scared of him, fearing repercussions for refusing to comply. When interviewed in regards to the murders, Specialist Winfield referred to Gibbs as “evil incarnate” and remarked, “He likes to kill things” and Cpl. Morlock stating “he likes to kill people, animals”. Specialist Winfield would later claim that after the murder, he would go on to call his parents and report to them what happened, appointing Gibbs as the ringleader. Winfields father would claim to then call the Army's investigative unit and inform them of his concern in regard to what his son had told him. He was reportedly told by a US Army rep that they were “not interested, couldnt do anything,- and told him to tell his son to “lie low”.

Specialist Adam Kelly, who worked under Staff Sgt. Gibbs, would also claim in an interview that they would consistently plant weapons and grenades of non US origin on their kills, so as to stage a combat interaction. This brings an entirely mew element to the horror in that we could be looking at an untold number of civilian deaths reported as combat casualties. Specialist Winfield was however not the only whistleblower, another unnamed soldier who reportedly instructed his superiors of the violence, was confronted by Staff Sgt Gibbs and several other members of the Kill Team.

One Cpl. Quintal would report on the incident saying that once they located their would be snitch, he was ripped off of his cot by the group, essentially being jumped on the spot by his fellow soldiers. At a point of brief pause, Gibbs would confront the man, saying that “if he snitched again, he would kill him, that he had killed before and has no problem killing again” at that time Cpl. Quintal claims Gibbs stood up, revealing a cloth in his hands. Upon unraveling the cloth, three human fingers fell to the ground in front of the group. Gibbs was known to take trophies of his murders on every occasion possible, taking teeth, fingers and even pieces of skull and shrapnel.

Charges

At the and of all this madness this group of murderers would eventually be caught, although wether or not they faced justice can surely be debated. Lawyers would claim many things as mitigating factors in regards to their specific clients mental state during the murders, including

Addiction to painkillers

Addiction to opium laced hashish

PTSD

Undiagnosed mental illness

However many of these claims were easily dismissed and the core four members of the kill team were charged as follows.

Staff Sergeant. Calvin Gibbs - Life Imprisonment with the possibility of parole after 10 years.

Corporal. Jeremy Morlock - 24 years imprisonment.

Specialist. Adam Winfield - 3 years imprisonment (paroled after one)

PFC. Andrew holmes - 7 years imprisonment (paroled after 4).

Cpl. Jeremy Morlock.

Specialist. Adam Winfield.

PFC. Andrew Holmes.

Staff Sgt. Calvin Gibbs.

Some photos taken by the kill team.

1. Exploded torso of an enemy insurgent killed via helicopter strike. Reports would claim that members of the group took turns stabbing the torso with their knives. 2. Cpl. Jeremy Morlock with a pistol looted off of the enemy insurgent. These guns would routinely be stolen off of the bodies of enemies in order to later be used to stage combat scenarios to cover up their crimes. 3. That very same pistol. 4. Decapitated, blown apart head of a random insurgent, being poked with a stick. 4/5. Two afghan farmers, bound to eachother by the wrist. Murdered by a different group of US soldiers and left in the road as a marker, the sign reads, “TALIBAN ARE DEAD”. 7. Corporal. Jeremy Morlock. 8. Blown apart legs of a random individual. 9. Staff Sgt. Calvin Gibbs, pictured relaxing. The pair of scissors seen fixed to his vest are the very same pair he would use to sever the fingers of two of the three victims to keep as trophies of his crime.

These murderers definitely skated justice if you ask me, and its still a mind-boggle how they did not all receive life sentences for these gruesome and malicious acts. Let me Know what you guys think about this captivating story. Is the US Army responsible or implicit for these crimes at all? Did they attempt to cover these murders up? How did these violent psychopaths get deployed? Or is the fact that they were violent psychopaths the very reason for that deployment. Unfortunately three innocent lives had to be taken for us to even ask the question.

Thanks for reading!!! This took alot of research and effort so i hope you all enjoy!!
