Have You Heard The Story of LaVena Johnson?
BY CPLPUN
LaVena Johnson was a soldier who enlisted in the Army in 2003. She was the first woman from Missouri to die in Iraq. What happened to this young black woman was appalling. She was found in her tent with a gunshot wound to the head, a broken nose, black eye, loose teeth, acid burns on her genitals, and a trail of blood leading away from her tent. What’s even more appalling is the Department of Defense has officially ruled her death a suicide.
The autopsy report and photographs revealed that her death was inconsistent with a suicide, and looked consistent with a rape-murder, but as far as the U.S. Criminal Investigative Command for the Army is concerned the case remains closed. Her father became suspicious when he saw her body in the funeral home and decided to investigate. At first the Department of the Army refused to release information, but eventually it did under the Freedom of Information Act after Pat Tillman’s death.
This is my homeless friend, Sean. My children and I have known him for several years and taken him food, clothes, and blankets. Sean is Special Needs. He can’tread or write and sounds like an 8 year old child when he talks. He recently told me that he is here because he got lost and can’t find his way home. He was on a Greyhound Bus to visit someone and got on the wrong bus at a rest stop. He’s been lost ever since. He thinks he’s from Springfield, Missouri. Someone has to be looking for him. He’s such a harmless, gentle soul. Please pray for him.

Love is all things. The Creator is love, and He resides within you. Each time that you express your love, you have created. And each time you pass up a chance to show love, you have also passed up your chance to develop your birthright of being a creator.

Just gonna say this is actually the first picture I’ve actually seen of wounded female veterans. Now that I think about it they are (in my eyes at least) hugely forgotten. Some female service members have been in combat and hit by IEDs outside the wire but it’s always the males you hear about and never the females. I think this picture is great and everyone should see it so please share it!

My 16 year old cousin Kiera has gone missing. She left her home in Spokane, WA where she lives with her grandparents around 4:00pm on Sunday, May 1st, saying she was going to go on a walk. She brought with her her favorite stuffed animal and a blanket which her grandmother found strange, but Kiera said she wanted to show them to a friend and would be back in 30 minutes. Her grandmother had a bad feeling and tracked the GPS on her phone to find that she was 4 miles away 10 minutes after she left making it extremely likely she got in someone’s car.
More information has been found and it is known that Kiera left her grandparents a letter that stated “By the time you read this, I will probably be dead. If not, I will be heading south.” No other information about her whereabouts was included in the letter, but she also kept a diary in which she wrote in there “I must to go as casually as possible, get into the car as quickly as I can, don’t make a scene, definitely drive, don’t fly” which makes it very likely that this is something much more serious than a teen running away from home. She has an cognitive disability (I apologize if that is not the correct wording) which hinders her decision-making skills and makes her a much easier target to be preyed on as such.
The main suspect of who picked her up is the man in the bottom photo, Zachary Wayne Jones, who she likely met online in a chat forum as she spent a lot of time on sites such as deviantArt, furAffinity, and other gaming/chatroom sites and was coached into letting him pick her up. The police are currently doing everything that they can to investigate the case so that we can get Kiera back home but please, please keep an eye out.
Kiera is 17 years old, 5′ 3″, 110 lbs with long dark brown hair. She has thick rimmed glasses and a BRIGHT GREEN CAST on her arm from a roller skating accident, and was last seen wearing a gray hoodie and blue jeans. The suspect Zachary Wayne Jones is 30-year-old man with blond hair and blue eyes, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and 118 lbs. They may be traveling in a 1997 blue Acura with Virginia license plate VGD6867.
If anyone sees either of these two, PLEASE report it to the police immediately!!! And please share this post!!!! Our family is terribly worried about Kiera and we want to get her home as quickly and as safely as possible. Thank you!!!
