Description

In the chaos of war-torn Iraq, a young American soldier was found dead under suspicious circumstances—and her family refuses to believe the army’s explanation- alleging that the truth has been buried under red tape, silence, and fear. This case doesn’t just tell LaVena’s story—it screams the truth about the silent, brutal struggles of women in uniform. This episode is dedicated to Private First Class Johnson and with sincere appreciation for all the brave men and women of the US armed forces.
