Ask Congress to Investigate LaVena Johnson's Death

Created on 2008-08-05 07:19:35

Things like this disgust me. I can't believe our military and our government is allowing this sort of stuff to happen without punishment. It's getting worse every day. Please read the below article and sign the petition. Just imagine this being your daughter, your sister, or your best friend. Maybe then you'll realize how horrible this actually is.


Dear Friend,


LaVena Johnson was 19 years old, serving in Iraq as a private in the Army, when she was raped, murdered, and her body was burned--by someone from her own military base. Despite overwhelming physical evidence, the Army called it a suicide and closed the case.[1]


For three years, LaVena's parents have been fighting for answers. At almost every turn, they've been met with closed doors or lies. But together we can help achieve justice for LaVena and other families who have suffered similar tragedies.[2]


Will you join me in standing with the Johnsons and calling on Henry Waxman, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, to investigate the Army's cover-up of Lavena's death?

Send Karl Rove to Jail

Send Karl Rove to Jail because he deserves it. He was served and totally ignored it. Nobody is above the law. Do you think if I ignored a subpoena that they wouldn't arrest me?
