Vanessa Guillén's death was not only a tragedy; it exposed deep concerns about military culture and the safety of women serving in the US Army. The 20-year-old soldier was murdered by fellow soldier Aaron Robinson at Fort Hood in Texas in 2020, prompting widespread calls for reform after allegations that she had experienced sexual harassment before her death.
More than five years later, a new investigation by The Intercept suggests Guillén's case was far from isolated, raising fresh questions about the risks faced by women serving alongside their fellow soldiers.
