Title: Slain soldier told kin to investigate if she died
Post by: Foxy Brown on October 06, 2007, 03:06:43 PM

The Quincy soldier mysteriously slain by a bullet to the head on a secure Afghanistan airbase feared something might happen to her after discovering “something she didn’t like,” her devastated family revealed.

Massachusetts National Guard Spc. Ciara Durkin, 30, was found with a single gunshot wound to her head behind a building at Bagram Airbase on Sept. 27.

“The last time she was home she said she had seen things that she didn’t like and she had raised concerns that had annoyed some people,” said Durkin’s sister Fiona Canavan, 44, of Quincy. (http://news.bostonherald.com/news/regional/general/view.bg?articleid=1035668)

Something about this seems fishy to me, and its not the first time that the military has tried to cover-up something, the Pat Tillman incident being most recent example to mention.

I think that the military is stonewalling, and hopefully the family of the soldier can get their answers and find out exactly what happened.

Sounds like a suicide. Military just don't want the bad publicity.
