Episode 3: ‘Dereliction of Duty’
November 22, 2024
How did leaders of the Army Reserve respond to the many, clear warning signs about the Lewiston shooter, a part-time soldier who was in a dangerous, downward spiral? And why didn’t they take further action?
The Army has acknowledged some failures but also cast blame elsewhere. In Episode 3, we look at questionable medical decisions, missed communication and lack of follow up by the Army.
Finally, we’ll learn why the shooter’s family believes the military could do more to prevent brain injuries in troops.
