This month, a Virginia jury convicted Ronnie Marshall on murder and weapon charges for the deaths of Edward and Brenda McDaniel in Fairfax, Virginia, according to WJLA. The couple, who were both U.S. Army colonels, were found dead on May 26, 2021.
Marshall is set to be sentenced at a later date. He faces life in prison.

“This was a highly emotional and tragic case that ended the lives of two respected members of the Army and our community,” Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano said, according to WJLA. “Mr. and Mrs. McDaniel were killed in their own driveway while taking their dog for a walk.
“We in Fairfax County have no tolerance for such disregard for human life and I’m pleased the jury saw this shooting for what it was — cold-blooded murder,” Descano said. “While there are no winners in a case like this, I’m glad Mr. Marshall is being held accountable for his crimes, and I hope this conviction brings some level of closure to the McDaniel family.”

Investigators said that Marshall worked with the victims’ son at a Fed Ex facility and accused his coworker of stealing from him, according to NBC Washington.
Marshall broke into the family’s home, where Edward McDaniel confronted him with a shotgun and ordered him to leave, according to the TV station.
Two days later, Marshall returned and killed the couple in the driveway of their home because he did not want them to identify him to police, according to NBC Washington. The killing was described as an execution-style murder.

The son saw Marshall approach the victims but ran and hid in a bathroom when he heard gunfire.
D’Angelo Strand was also charged in connection to the case and is accused of driving the killer to and from the home. His case remains active.

A Hulu docuseries released Wednesday explores the 1979 murder of a North Carolina Marine and the sordid world of drugs and violence that may have been underlying the crime.
The trailer for “Where Is Private Dulaney?” begins with Pvt. Leroy Dulaney’s mother, Carol Dulaney, reading aloud a letter she penned to the then-president as she sought to discover what had happened to her son.
Then a man’s voice, presumably belonging to a police officer, narrates the grisly discovery of Dulaney’s body.
The Marine Corps had initially maintained that Dulaney, a Marine stationed at North Carolina’s Camp Lejeune, was AWOL, according to the trailer.
But it later became clear that Dulaney was the victim of murder — by a fellow Marine. The series recounts Carol Dulaney’s investigation into her son’s fate.
“She could have never imagined what she would uncover: a world of drugs, rumored satanic cults, and a possible serial killer,” Hulu’s description of the series says.
The trailer teases at the murderer’s identity, suggesting he was a cult leader who was prone to violence and drug-dealing.
“We stopped a serial killer,” Carol Dulaney says.
The three-part series was produced by ABC News Studios and released on Hulu.

I never understood why recruits flee basic training/boot camp.
Fort Jackson recruit accused of hijacking bus full of schoolchildren may plead insanity

An order requiring that Jovan Collazo submit to an evaluation of his “criminal responsibility and capacity” was filed in the Richland Circuit Court on Sept. 27.

(Tribune News Service) — The Fort Jackson recruit accused of hijacking a school bus full of children with an empty rifle has indicated he intends to assert he is “not guilty by reason of insanity,” according to documents filed in the Richland County Court.
An order requiring that Jovan Collazo submit to an evaluation of his “criminal responsibility and capacity” was filed in the Richland Circuit Court on Sept. 27. The order requires that Collazo, who fled Army basic training at Fort Jackson in May 2021, be evaluated by the state Department of Mental Health within 60 days.
Circuit Judge Debra McCaslin issued the order with the consent of both the defense and the prosecution “after defense counsel has indicated the intent to assert the defense of not guilty by reason of insanity.”
Collazo, 24, has been charged with nineteen counts of kidnapping as well as armed robbery, carjacking, pointing a firearm, carrying a weapon on school property and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, according to court records.
In South Carolina, the defense is responsible for proving to a jury that Collazo is not guilty by reason of insanity. If Collazo is found legally insane, he would not be incarcerated in a state prison. Instead, he would be confined for “care and treatment,” according to South Carolina law.
The 5th Circuit Solicitors Office, which is prosecuting the case, said its policy is to not comment on ongoing prosecutions.
Following his arrest, Collazo allegedly attempted to escape from the Richland County jail. Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said Collazo assaulted a guard before breaking his leg in the escape attempt.
But Collazo’s attorney, 5th Circuit chief public defender Fielding Pringle, characterized it as a desperate act by a troubled man on suicide watch.
“People who are thinking clearly and normally do not run around jail dorms completely naked with their hands cuffed behind their back running into locked steel doors and jumping from the second tier to the floor below,” Pringle said at the time.
“These are not the actions of a healthy and clear-minded individual who is trying to escape. They are the actions of a very troubled young man who was on suicide watch at the time,” Pringle said.
The State was not able to reach Pringle for this story.
Collazo fled basic training at Fort Jackson on the morning of May 7, 2021. After hopping the perimeter fence of the country’s largest Army basic training facility, Collazo attempted to hitch rides from passing cars on Interstate 77. Armed with his unloaded rifle, Collazo then hijacked the school bus, Lott said at the time.
Authorities say that Collazo ordered the bus driver to take him to the next town. But he got frustrated when the children began asking him questions, and he told the bus driver to stop after traveling about 3.5 miles. He ordered the children and driver off the bus and then drove a few more miles before being arrested by sheriff’s deputies.

Despite what recruiters say and even the DI's say, you CAN leave training although it's not easy.
