What is the name of the murdered Marine, subj. of "A Few Good Men" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I have checked this site including the episode list and have tired looking for the information. Maybe someone can help me.

What was the name of the Marine who had been a defendant in the Guantanamo Bay hazing incident and later was found murdered in Massachusetts. He had red hair and at the time of his death was interviewing for a job at UPS.

I think his first name was David and there was speculation his death was related to his criticism of the movie "A Few Good Men". If you know the air date that would be great too.

Thanks, Chris

I believe his name was David Cox. Is that right, CD?

His name was David Cox. Many other people who were the inspiration for A Few Good Men were upset about how the film. One of people from the legal team David Igelisas became U.S. District Attorney. He spoke at my high school and said he didn't like the film and that many people in the NAVY and JAG corps were upset Deborah Sorkin for giving her brother Aaron facts and ideas on the case.

Thanks for the last name.

If I can be so bold to ask for help 1 more time, does anyone have any links to this story? I did a power search on the name David Cox and Massachusetts thru my local library and got a big fat zero.

The Boston Globe must have something but I don't see any archive section. Oh the confusion

I did find an old article about his murder:

Thanks CD

I sent an email to the Boston PD. They were supposed to form a new cold case unit this year which means his murder might get a second look. I hope so.

I don't expect a response but you never know.
