For this episode of “As the Army Turns”, we have a case involving three Soldiers. Two of the Soldiers were married to each other. The female Soldier was having an affair with another Soldier. Both plotted the murder of the husband, one carried it out.<\/p>\n
Apparently, what the woman was getting out of the extramarital affair was such that she wanted to “cash in” on her husband’s death benefits, and share the windfall with her lover.<\/p>\n
Considering the lack of judgment involved with this plan, perpetrated by two of the Soldiers, one wonders what could’ve happened if they would’ve gotten away with it.<\/p>\n
This brings back a story that I heard when I was in the Navy, possibly another urban legend, of when a couple of Ship Servicemen stole from the ship store, then successfully brought enough of the goods off the ship to hopefully make “a killing” converting them into cash. These guys couldn’t agree on how to apportion the goods, so one made a killing of another kind.<\/p>\n
Didn’t either one of the Soldiers think that if they could do that with someone else, they could do that to them? If the wife could easily negotiate away the life of her husband, what’s stopping her from negotiating away the lover’s life? What’s stopping the lover from shooting her if it were to financially benefit him?<\/p>\n
I wouldn’t be surprised if they turn against each other in court.<\/p>\n
Regardless of the situation, both Soldiers won’t be playing Soldier in the future… A good thing as Soldiers with that kind of judgment, and mindset, aren’t needed in the Army.<\/p>\n
From Michigan Live:<\/span><\/p>\n An investigation into the killing revealed the woman was having an affair with another soldier stationed in Georgia, where she lived with her husband and 1-year-old child, the release said. Police say the pair plotted to kill Hassel in order to continue their relationship and reap financial benefits resulting from his death.<\/p>\n Hassel and his wife were staying with his father in St. Joseph Township while home on military leave over the holidays. He was at a family gathering in Benton Harbor on the night of his death.<\/p>\n When he returned to his father’s home around 11 p.m. to bring his wife some food, he was confronted by “an assailant who shot and killed him,” the release said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n …And from WWMT:<\/span><\/p>\n Police said both Kemia Hassel and 24-year-old Jeremy Cuellar, both of whom are active duty members of the Army stationed at Fort Stewart in Georgia, were engaged in an extramarital affair and plotted to kill Tyrone Hassel III in order to cash in on his Army death benefits.<\/p>\n Cuellar is said to have traveled from Georgia to Chicago, where he waited several days before receiving directions from Kemia Hassel on where to ambush Tyrone Hassel III. He also is charged with premeditated murder and felony firearm. He remains in custody in Liberty County, Georgia, and is awaiting extradition proceedings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n More details could be read on Michigan Live<\/a> and on WWMT<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
