He was court-martialled, and served six months in a military brig for disobeying orders to deploy to [[Afghanistan]]; orders he believes were illegitimate because of unresolved doubts about President Obama's birth. Lieutenant Colonel Lakin was released from prison in 2011, and returned home to his family in [[Baltimore]], [[Maryland]].
