A decorated United States Army Green Beret was charged with murder after he confessed to killing an Aghan man during a Fox News interview, according to reports.

Shortly after Major Matthew Golsteyn's confession, the US Army Special Operations Command spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Loren Bymer, in a statement said: "Major Matthew Golsteyn's immediate commander has determined that sufficient evidence exists to warrant the preferral of charges against him." Golsteyn has been charged with first-degree murder, which carries the death penalty.
