HINESVILLE, Georgia (WJCL) — A military trial begins this week at Fort Stewart for Army Sgt. Quornelius S. Radford, who is accused of shooting five people during an August 2025 attack on his logistics unit.
Radford previously pleaded guilty to domestic violence and several aggravated assault charges, but prosecutors are still pursuing more serious attempted murder charges. Officials say five soldiers were wounded and a sixth person was shot at during the incident.
According to court testimony, Radford said he was suicidal and wanted to provoke a confrontation with military police, but denied intending to kill anyone. He has remained in pretrial confinement since the shooting.
The trial on the attempted murder charges is scheduled to start Monday with jury selection set for Tuesday.
