A Cape Coral man is the focus of an Independent Lens film airing on WGCU World (30.2/Cable 201) January 21 at 7:30pm. Adam Winfield was a soldier in Afghanistan. He tried to blow the whistle on war crimes his troop was committing. The men were killing Afghani civilians and planting weapons on them to stage the incidents. Winfield’s life was threatened after he started telling his father Chris Winfield through Facebook chat sessions about what was going on. Then he says he was forced to become part of one the murders. He was arrested and tried.
WGCU’s Amy Tardif spoke with Chris Winfield.
