in many ways, that's a piece of fallout from gdma right there.hout this investigation, he probably would still be nr. brian: let me drop back 23 years. aow you some video of former chief of naval operations. frank. i want to run this, because this is another time in navy's past that was not so stellar. [begin video clip] >> i think the greatest lesson learning is we have to be more attentive to our house and what we do and how we act so we can prevent something like this from happening. i greatly regret i did not have the foresight to be able to see the actions could occur. in hindsight, i clearly concede that. we need to work harder to be able to understand the changes taking place and deal with it at an earlier time than to let us get into a case like tailhook, where we have a difficult problem. as you know, this is very difficult. i think this is the end of tailhook.

not nearly on the scale that gdma was at. navy set it up -- brian: consolidated disposition authority, what in the world is that? chris: the idea is that justice runs its own investigation, and justice is looking for criminal activity. justice is not about ethics, it is about criminal behavior. if they have people, they investigated somebody, if they find no criminal behavior and nothing they can charge anybody with, they are done with that person. they then turn that investigation over to the navy run consolidated disposition authority, consolidated in the sense that there are different entities within the navy that could be investigating this. why have all of these different units? we will do it one effort consolidated. so the navy runs its own investigation on these people looking for ethics violations. right, you did not break the letter of the law but certainly broke the standards of behavior that you were sworn to and that we expect people to adhere to. that has turned into its own, that has taken on a life of its own.
