1/ Private first class Vanessa Guillén vanished on an April Sunday, in broad daylight, from Fort Hood, the 3rd largest Army base in the country. Her family would later say she spoke of being sexually harassed there, and of being afraid to report it.

2/ Guillén’s disappearance went largely unreported in the national media until her relatives began holding press conferences, accusing officials of deliberately misleading them. National marches followed and politicians and celebrities took up her cause.
