NBC must use the same background checkers as Fox, because their Prince Charming is looking like a toad. The Smoking Gun reports that Rob Campos, the bachelor on "For Love Or Money", was expelled from the JAG training program as a result of a drunken grope of a female Navy officer.

According to Campos' NBC bio, he "joined the U.S. Marine Corps as a Judge Advocate". Contacted Friday, "Love Or Money" producer Bruce Nash also confirmed Campos told them there was "absolutely nothing irregular" about his JAG service. In actuality, Campos was formally disciplined, kicked out of the program, and shuffled to a low-level position helping enlisted personnel and military personnel prepare their taxes. Unlike successful graduates of the JAG program, Campos was never promoted above his initial rank of second lieutenant, and he was allowed to leave before completing his service commitment. Campos did not disclose this information to NBC, saying he "thought it was a private matter".
Interestingly enough, this news comes out as NBC has been showing promotions where Campos is apologizing to the women for his drunken behavior. According to executive producer Bruce Nash, Campos had pushed a woman's backside with his boot. Guess you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
