Before joining the DOJ, Babu served on active-duty in the US Marine Corps, and is presently a Lieutenant Colonel in the Marine Corps Reserve. Babu has served as a prosecutor, defense counsel, supervisory attorney and commander, and taught law as an adjunct professor at the Naval Academy. While deployed to Iraq, he was assigned to conduct critical investigations into allegations of friendly fire, detainee abuse and potential war crimes.
Among his high-profile cases, he prosecuted a senior officer for crimes related to the suicide of a Muslim recruit during basic training, and prosecuted a Naval Academy professor who engaged in sexual misconduct with students.
As a defense counsel, he handled appellate litigation for the purported ringleaders of the Haditha and Hamdania killings, two of the most significant war crimes cases from the Iraq war, winning a full reversal in the Hamdania case of all convictions, including murder, and securing his client’s release from prison.
