A Daughter's Death (2011x5)

Ausstrahlung: Feb 15, 2011

It was a hot summer morning in St. Louis when John Johnson got the news in his doorway: His daughter was dead. LaVena was 19, a former honor student, and a freshly deployed soldier in Iraq. Devastated, her father asked the Army how she died. The answer that came back stunned him: 'Self-inflicted gunshot wound.' Johnson couldn't believe it; not his little girl. For the past five years, Johnson has waged an all-out war against the Pentagon to disprove the Army's suicide finding.
