The Army has named the five members of the independent panel that will soon review the command climate and culture at Fort Hood, Texas, in the wake of Spc. Vanessa Guillen’s murder.

The president said, "We're going to look into it very powerfully, and we'll get to the bottom of it," pledging a strong investigation into the death of Vanessa Guillen.

"The Army is committed to taking care of our Soldiers, civilians, families, and Soldiers for life, and this independent review will explore the current command climate and culture at Fort Hood," said McCarthy in a statement announcing the panel. The panel's findings will be submitted to James McPherson, under secretary of the Army, and Gen. Joseph Martin, the vice chief of staff of the Army, who will co-chair an implementation team to consider the recommendations and implement any changes, as needed.Guillen's family has said that 20-year-old Vanessa Guillen was sexually harassed at Fort Hood but that she was too afraid to step forward with her allegations because she feared retaliation.

Candles and flowers adorn a mural of Vanessa Guillen, a soldier based at nearby Fort Hood on July 6, 2020 in Austin.Since her disappearance, Guillen’s family has demanded justice for Guillen and other service members who have been victims of sexual harassment or violence. Shortly after Guillen's remains were found, the top commander at Fort Hood requested that inspectors from Army Forces Command carry out a review of the Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention program office at Fort Hood.On Wednesday, Congress received details of that unreleased inspection that showed 94% of surveyed soldiers trusted their base leaders and had a high willingness to report sexual infractions to the SHARP base's office.
