Her death was quickly ruled a suicide by army investigators, however it didn’t take long for questions to arise. Was this a case of suicide? Murder? A systematic cover-up by the U.S. military? More than a decade later, questions still linger … Women & Crime: Reconsidered is where we revisit our episode catalog and bring new insights, behind the scenes or updates.
