What in God's name is going on down there? This is the third time that a southwest Ohio woman was killed down at Fort Bragg.

Fayette-Nam is a horrible, horrible place. Spend enough time down there, and you're probably begging to get sent to Iraq.

I was there for six weeks for training. I never want to go back.

The first woman lost down there was the niece and god-daughter of someone who works here. Very sad.

My brother in law is a Special Forces Operative currently deployed in Thailand and I distinctly remember him telling me that he'd rather spend the night in the mountains of Afghanistan than the streets of Fayetteville NC....that place is straight up scary

Anyone know her? An article I read said that she was a 1997 high school grad...a 2001 Xavier grad most likely

My cousin's husband as been stationed there in the past and has told me the horror stories. Does anyone remember earlier this year about the photos have the bathrooms there. From what i saw there are better rundown prisons to live in then at Bragg.

She graduated in 2000, which was my class. I can't say that I remember her, though.

Jumpy, I believe she graduated in the 2000 or 2001 time frame. I talked to someone in the communications department who knew her well and she seemed like a sweet girl. Worked hard to pay her way and graduated early. Horrible news, especially with her husband under arrest. Prayers to her family, especially her parents.

Jumpy, I believe she graduated in 2001-2002, possibly the winter semester in between. I talked to someone in the communications department who knew her well and she seemed like a sweet girl.

That may explain why she wasn't familiar. Channel 12 is falsely reporting that she gradated in 2000.

They think the husband did it?!? Wow.

I did think the story odd that two soldiers were walking together and the female got stabbed to death by an unknown assailant with no apparent injury to the husband. Seemed like a pretty brazen attack. Sadly, this makes more sense.
