Pregnant Soldier Found Dead In Motel - “Suspicious”
Police are calling a pregnant soldier’s death “suspicious” after officials found her body Sunday at a Fayetteville, N.C., motel just days after she arrived at Fort Bragg from Germany.
Spc. Megan Lynn Touma was identified Tuesday, two days after her body was found in a motel room after guests complained of a foul odor. The 23-year-old dental specialist with the 19th Replacement Company was from Cold Spring, Ky., and was born in Seoul, South Korea.
The Fayetteville Police Department called the death suspicious. Police told FOX affiliate WRAL-TV it appeared Touma had been dead for a couple of days and the condition of her body made it difficult to determine the cause of death.
The state medical examiner has completed an autopsy on Touma, FOX News has learned, but those results have not been released yet to authorities.
Authorities said in a statement that Touma was seven months’ pregnant at the time.
Touma had just arrived at Fort Bragg less than two weeks ago after spending three years assigned to the United States Army Dental Activity Clinic Bavaria in Bamberg, Germany.
Touma was awarded the Army Achievement Medal, the Good Conduct Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and the Army Service Ribbon, according to the paper.

I am being stationed there in Nov, I hope i don’t get murdered in my hotel!
I hope they find the sick shit that killed her, who kills a pregnant woman or a soldier, let alone both!
