2. The Army routinely investigates these claims before granting a soldier conscientious objector status.
3. The Army determines that Abdo qualifies as a conscientious objector.
4. The Army begins to initiate administrative procedures to discharge Abdo because of his conscientious objector status.
5. In a separate investigation, Abdo is implicated on child pornography charges (not much information on any details).
6. This jeopardizes Abdo's status as a conscientious objector, so this puts a temporary halt to his discharging process until the Army can investigate it further.
7. Abdo goes AWOL. (Now he's in real trouble.)
8. Abdo resurfaces again in Killeen, TX, outside of Ft. Hood, where he is turned in by a local gun shop owner for suspicious behavior.
