Help the family of LaVena Johnson uncover the truth about their daughter's murder. I don't think an upbeat girl tries to burn her body AFTER she inexplicably commits suicide. Apparently the military believes this to be the case.

Fighting the Army one determined step at a time

The parents are forced to exhume their daughter's body. Waveflux at Shakesville:

The Army claimed that Pfc. LaVena Johnson killed herself in Iraq in 2005; LaVena’s parents maintain that their daughter was murdered. Last week, the Johnsons had LaVena’s body exhumed for autopsy. St. Louis CBS affiliate KMOV-TV (channel 4) will air a report on the autopsy findings tonight at 10 pm Central. The promo for the report is available on the station’s website. The full report will likely be posted there after the broadcast.

KMOV was the news station whose report on the LaVena Johnson story in February sparked renewed attention to the case.

Update 5/5: Autopsy inconclusive.
