A black woman in the military was found dead and it appears that she was raped and murdered. However, the military is not seeking to conduct an investigation. Dr. Watkins is a regular guest on CNN, FOX News, BET, CBS, ESPN, and other national media. He was the source of some controversy with Bill O'Reilly from the O'Reilly Factor, and has been a guest on other Fox Shows such as Hannity & Colmes. He has also publicly disputed Bill Cosby for stating that african-american youth and the hip hop generation are not very productive. Watkins wrote "What if George Bush were a Black Man?" and "Everything you ever wanted to know about college", which he argues is an appeal to the MTV generation to look past 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, TI, Kanye West and others to explore their educational potential. Dr. Boyce is a Finance Professor at Syracuse University and a graduate of The Ohio State University. He recently spoke at The University of Kentucky and demanded that they increase their numbers of black students and faculty. He was also one of the instrumental black leaders behind the scenes during the cases with the Jena 6, Don Imus and Michael Vick. He worked closely with Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson, appearing on the air with them to suggest strategies to get Imus off the air. It was Dr. Watkins' idea to challenge his corporate sponsors that led to Imus' dismissal. He was also outspoken on Barry Bonds' situation and the OJ Simpson trial. Watkins argues that Barry Bonds might be a jerk, but his alleged indiscretion is no worse than the evidence against Lance Armstrong for the use of performance enhancing drugs. He made his comments on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Wendy Williams Experience, CNN, FOX, BET, CBS and other networks. Your Black World is the top black news and commentary site in America.

Aug 1, 2008 - She is one of MANY women of MANY colors in the military that were raped and killed. Unfortunately her case like the other cases in Iraq will go unresolved, this is one of MANY reasons WHY I don't encourage women to go into the military.

Aug 1, 2008 - This is such an obvious cover up. I feel so bad for those parents. WOmen have been the most abused and persecuted creatures of our kind.

ebonycody Says:
Aug 14, 2008 - This is the worst of the worst thing that I have heard with regards to military women. It is time for a change in our administration, especially if they are allowing these types of things to happen and not do a thorough investigation. I really think they need to stop sending women into combat zones. Congress need to do further investigation with regards to this case. I feel for her parents and my prayers go out to them.

Aug 17, 2008 - I am an ex-military member..I was raped, and they put me through hell, the guy who did it got away with it, and he was also a fellow service member. I was kicked out. They do lie and will threaten you to keep quiet or else.
s13ge Says:
Aug 19, 2008 - And it's sad. As a fellow veteran, I know exactly what you mean. Most guys who rape chicks in the service get off scott free. It pisses me off to no end.

Aug 25, 2008 - I'm sorry for what you went through.
AngelStarDust1212 Says:
Aug 25, 2008 - I want to thank those of you who expressed their condolences. I want to make ppl realise the truth from someone who has experienced this first hand, I think I am lucky I didn't end up dead, but I was forced to abort my baby. This crime occurs more often then reported, it happens to men as equally as to women, and ethnicity is not a factor of rape, but will be utilised against you if each party is of another ethnic origin, as was in my case. She was more then likely murdered to keep her quiet.
AngelStarDust1212 Says:
Aug 25, 2008 - I want to emphasise that they will cover this up and more then likely know who is/are responsible. Men get raped, but most never report it, it's not a random issue within the military for yr fellow service members to rape or be raped. The Government recieves a official document with limited information. It is best to request/push for a congressional investigation, as I did. I would also recommend the family to contact a rape crisis counselor, they can help you and are free service. cont..
AngelStarDust1212 Says:
Aug 25, 2008 - Also the family is entitled to restitution. They probably did investigate and are lying about it. I know how the process is in the military, they will lie. also, for those of you who are ignorant and rude..Rape does not discrimminate against ethnicity, gender, age, etc...Rape is a horrible assault to endure, it's not about sex, it's not about "race", it's about hurting & destroying ppl. You are not safe, yr fellow service member is not yr friend, trust no one of them, I know.

Sep 23, 2008 - And you're just as equally fucked up. What, you made, because a woman can get the job better than a man? You disgust me. RIP to this woman, my soul sista; you didn't deserve this. May your rapist/killer rot in hell for eternity.
ParlayMommie88 Says:
Sep 23, 2008 - And the US makes me sick to my stomach. All evidence points to foul play, yet all they are doing is "looking into it." WTF kind of BS is that? Sad thing about it is, that no matter how much we as people may want her murder solved or how much her parents want it solved, the US army can and will cover it up and no one will ever know the truth. Fucked as this country is, and now they decide to be worried about their reputation and their not so "good name." Stupid ass country. Beautiful black woman.

Sep 26, 2008 - If you have any daughters I'm quite sure theya are all whores too. A fool should really keep their opinions to themselves so as to not let everyone know that they are indeed a FOOL.
