Sexual Harassment

Fort Hood officials are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of Pvt. Ana Basaldua Ruiz, a 21 year-old combat engineer with Mexican roots. The soldier died on Monday, according to a release from the base.

Spc. Vanessa Guillén was murdered by a fellow soldier in 2020. "My little sister shed light on the epidemic of sexual misconduct in the military" Mayra Guillén said.

A federal bill was recently reintroduced, proposing sweeping changes to the way the military investigates sexual assault and harassment allegations. Texas lawmakers are urging Congress to make it law.

The investigation found that HillCo lobbyist Rick Dennis did not slip GHB into the drinks of two legislative staffers. But the incident laid bare larger questions about a Capitol culture that many female staffers say often leads to allegations of harassment being brushed under the rug.
