Initially her mother, Angelique Hughes was going to care for her son, but after spending a week with the infant she realized it would be too much and she told Hutchinson she was was unable to provide child care.
Hutchinson informed the Army and received a 30 day extension --it is incredulous that the Army believes this is enough time to find child care for an infant! During this time Hutchinson was unable to find child care, and didn't report on the day of deployment.
Hutchinson's attorney says "That's when it put her in this horrible situation of having to choose between abandoning her child or disobeying her superiors," Sussman said.
Hutchinson is now under arrest, but has not been charged with any crime while her attorney continues to fight for her.

As far as I am concerned, the woman neglecting her baby son is a domestic issue. And disobeying to report on the day of her deployment is unethical to fellow soldiers.
Could you please provide the source of the article? And please explain how does this involve ethics in journalism?
Thanks!
