“They told me that he had
passed away,” she said. “I was
in disbelief. It never occurred
to me he would be gone .”
The investigation is expect

Court from Fort Rucker, Ala.,
will begin conducting an on

two weeks, Harris said.
“We will have a full account
that will take a couple of weeks
then we’ll issue a full report,”
he said.
The Journal-News reported
