In a bizarre release and a story that sounds like an investigation from an episode of Law and Order Special Victims Unit, Military.com is reporting that a Marine stationed in Hawaii remains in custody this week in connection to the death of a dependent and that his wife is missing as per the reports from Military.com
A service member’s dependent died Sept. 1 at Marine Corps Base Hawaii, or MCBH. This comes after a soldier in Hawaii whose pregnant wife went missing was arrested in August as part of a separate case. The Naval Criminal Investigative Service is investigating the dependent death, officials said, and the Marine has been in confinement for nearly two weeks.
The Army said Tuesday it has filed charges against a junior enlisted soldier in Hawaii who was arrested earlier this month after another soldier was arrested after his pregnant wife went missing.
Pfc. Dewayne Arthur Johnson II, of Frederick, Maryland, was charged with 14 counts on three charges: providing false official statements; obstruction of justice; and production and distribution of child pornography, the U.S. Army in Hawaii said.
