Special Forces veteran and Connecting Vets.com Investigative Reporter, Jack Murphy, describes how a recently unsealed grand jury indictment is shedding light on murders that occurred on Ft. Bragg in 2020.

When the bodies of an Army Delta Operator, William "Billy" Lavigne, 37, and U.S. Army veteran Timothy Dumas, 44, were found shot to death on the base there were instantly many unanswered questions.

Murphy has tracked the investigation over the years and spoken with law enforcement officials and other sources close to the investigation.

The recently unsealed indictment reveals a case that includes murder, drugs, firearms, a cop turned smuggler and obstruction.

We also discuss the events surrounding the recent arrest of former Navy SEAL, Rob O’Neill, the self-proclaimed shooter of Osama Bin Laden, who was allegedly drunk at a Dallas hotel, and got into an altercation with a security guard.

Later, we take a closer look at the issue of drinking and drug use among the elite Special Operations and veteran communities.
