7th Special Forces Group soldier charged with wife’s murder
My son is stationed there now, he says domestic abuse, arrests and tab revocations are increasingly common there now. Sad to hear the caliber of SF Soldier has changed so much in the Red Empire.
A Special Forces soldier assigned to Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, has been charged in the shooting death of his estranged wife in their home on Sunday night, according to a statement from the Crestview Police Department. Authorities arrested Staff Sgt. Derek McKinney, 32, after he called 911 to report a gunshot victim, following a domestic dispute, the release said. “We do not have a record of calls to this particular family before, so it’s one of those very tragic things that often happens in a community, when somebody grabs a weapon to settle a dispute, and it’s just a terrible shame,” Crestview Police Department Public Information Officer Brian Hughes told local news station WJHG. Natasha McKinney, 34, was found dead in the bedroom. McKinney is being held without bond in the Okaloosa County jail while he awaits a hearing, according to court records. “We are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of one of our family members,” Col. Patrick Colloton, 7th Special Forces Group commander, said in a statement. “Our focus now is to provide the best care and support possible to the family and loved ones. I ask that you please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.” https://www.armytimes.com/news/your-...-wifes-murder/ |
Have they changed so much? I wonder.

The force is frayed, getting worn out.
Prayers for the family, may she Rest in Peace. |

At the end of the day, "work-life balance" is just a buzz word commanders like to say, but no one has truly been able to solve this problem. Guys deploy, train, and deploy again. After a time, some folks just can't handle that AND their "regular" life problems that come along. It's tough all around. |
