TL;DR Summary

Private Ana Basalduaruiz, a 21-year-old combat engineer at Fort Hood, Texas, was found dead on Monday after reporting sexual assault by a higher-ranking soldier. The Army Criminal Investigation Division and chain of command are investigating the death, which Fort Hood says shows no evidence of foul play. Basalduaruiz's death comes after the murder of Army Specialist Vanessa Guillén at Fort Hood, who was sexually assaulted by a fellow soldier. Sexual assault has been a major problem in the military for decades, with only a few hundred convictions handed down every year.
