For 20 year old Vanessa Guillen, it had been a dream of hers to join the US Army and proudly serve her country. A native of Houston, Texas, Vanessa joined the army after graduating from high school, and was stationed at Fort Hood, nearly 200 miles from home. Around the beginning of April of this year however, Vanessa's mother began to notice a change in her daughter's behavior when she would speak with her. The normally happy and outgoing Vanessa had suddenly become withdrawn and wasn't herself. When asked what was wrong, Vanessa confided in her mother that one of her sergeants had been sexually harassing her. When her mother tried to get a name for the sergeant so she could call in a complaint, Vanessa wouldn't reveal it out of fear that she would get in trouble, and she just promised her mother that she would take care of it herself. On the afternoon of Wednesday, April 22, Vanessa Guillen would disappear with nothing more than the clothes on her back. Her family has been searching for her ever since with the added help of a congresswoman and even a few celebrities. But two months later, no trace of Vanessa has been found, and now foul play is suspected.
