Memorial of Spc. Vanessa Guillen Vandalized Again

Memorial of Spc. Vanessa Guillen Vandalized Again My heart breaks thinking of the disrespect that Spc. Vanessa Guillen endured in her final moments, and now again with the destruction of artifacts at a mural that serves as a memorial for Vanessa. Vanessa Guillen was just 20 years old when she was brutally murdered by fellow soldier, Spc. Aaron David Robinson. This time the candles that were placed in a heart shape with crosses were destroyed. In their place, an array of sunflowers spelling "VANESSA" has been left by volunteers. In the post, LULAC thanks Sgt. Williams, "for cleaning up all the broken candles and damage done, and leaving the mural once again beautiful and radiant."

How NCIS changed in the wake of that scandal was discussed during congressional testimony Tuesday. The hearing was held one week after proposals to redesign CID were outlined in briefing documents obtained by Army Times. One proposal suggested recasting CID as an independent organization with civilian leadership, similar to what NCIS looks like today. A second proposal, which was labeled “recommended” in the documents, would retain the current military police leadership while hiring more civilian agents.
