Spate or Trend(?) of US Military Veterans Being Slain in Unusual Manner Disconcerting

Posted by HCN on Tuesday, June 2, 2026
These matters need to be looked into now; not after the court cases and hearings months down the line.
As the slayings and cases are being investigated into, maintaining preventative and abatement measures has to be as well.

Here are a few incidents. You will see what we mean by spate, or sudden spike and cluster in unusual activity.

Look, people make big money off of selling body parts on the black market, and the same for films of real life gratuitous activities. In an era now of rapidly advancing AI, (art. intel.), there may be a stronger demand for real life stuff to watch on whatever screen people watch, perhaps to get their high off visual activity.

There is the sincerest hopes that this sort of thing is not going on in regards US soldiers.

Honestly, in today's climate of decadence and greed, where less and less respect is given to values that used to be upheld, and less care for dignity, (considering those negatives, in the effort) to be on the safe side, any incidents that remotely ring that there might be something strange going on, needs to be marked and continually observed, and monitored. They can also be signs and heads up that unusual incidents of the same class might be going on elsewhere, such as in the same region, or far away.

The few I incidents found in about 5 minutes of looking through, without specifically looking for sordid incidents, (I can't imagine how many will be found when purposely looking for incidents of the kind for 50 minutes); AI assisted information collection:

Shana Cloud, 50, held without bail in the death of Clinton Bonnell, 50. She is charged with first-degree murder and dismembering human remains. 

Mr Bonnell was a Green Beret (status not discussed).

The/a tipper to this post:
"His torso was found a month later in a pond about 3 miles from the Butler Nursery Road home he shared with Cloud. His head, arms and legs were not recovered.

“She [defendant] is not a danger to the community and will appear in court,” Moore told the judge.

“Mr. Bonnell was shot four times in the back while he was wearing a backpack with his school laptop inside.”

As he prepared to deny the motion for bond, Judge Gregory also addressed what he saw as a curious piece of evidence against Cloud that nudged his “reason and common sense.”"
