LaVena Johnson

#100 - In 2005, 19-year-old Missouri native, LaVena Johnson was deployed to serve in Iraq. Eight weeks into her tour, fellow soldiers found LaVena's body inside a contractor's tent on base. She had been shot with her own M-16 automatic rifle, which was found lying next to her on the ground. After a quick investigation, the Army ruled her death a suicide. However, her death became suspicious after the Army released her body to the Johnson family.Support My WorkIf you love the show, the easiest way to show your support is by leaving us a positive rating with a review.
