Braulio Castillo was sentenced to life in prison<\/a> last summer for the murder of his estranged wife, Michelle a few years ago. He broke into her home and strangled her while their children were asleep just down the hallway. Before that, he founded Signet Computers (renamed Strong Castle in 2013) doing so with his status as a service-disabled veteran. He became famous as the target of Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth’s <\/a>ire in a House Committee investigation into his status as a service-connected disabled veteran.<\/p>\n

See, while attending the US Military Academy Preparatory School, he injured his foot during orienteering training and left the program. If he hadn’t been injured, he wouldn’t have even been considered a veteran. Even though he played football at the University of San Diego the following year, he still had that status as an injured veteran 27 years later. It was more about the system that would allow it, than it was about Castillo, and I noticed that Duckworth didn’t do anything about the system while she was at the Department of Veterans’ Affairs or in Congress, so whose fault is it really?<\/p>\n

I don’t think his records were ever called into question, but here they are anyway;<\/p>\n
