UPDATE: William Bennett Was a Retired U.S. Army Special Forces Lieutenant Colonel
Via: Washington Post:
According to military and court records, William Bennett was born in Rochester, Minn., and had retired as a lieutenant colonel from Army Special Forces. He joined the Army in October 1977, and his postings included Vicenza, Italy; Fort Lewis, Wash.; and the District. He had received numerous commendations.
Cynthia Bennett also served in the Army, as a captain. She had joined in 1978.

A lot of people who serve the beast feel as though they’re safe, as long as they play by the rules and keep their mouths shut.
And then the white van pulls up…

A man killed while apparently exercising with his wife on a trail in Loudoun County over the weekend had worked for the CIA until 2000, sources said.
Early Sunday morning, deputies found William Bennett’s body in a grassy area next to Riverside Parkway in the Lansdowne area. His wife, Cynthia Bennett, was found injured nearby. She was airlifted to an area hospital in critical condition.
The couple apparently was attacked by three people in a white van, investigators said. Both were wearing jogging outfits.
Investigators still do not know the motive for the attack or whether it was gang-related or random.
“If this does turn out to be strictly random, that’s probably our worst nightmare and for people who live in this community,” Loudoun County Sheriff Stephen Simpson said.
The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office got a call at around 5 a.m. Sunday. When deputies arrived, they found William Bennett’s body. He had suffered severe head trauma.
Cynthia Bennett wasn’t discovered until the sun started to rise. She was in a grassy area across the street, over a fence.
“We found the blood on the fence and then we found the female laying over the fence as though she may have been injured and crawled over the fence and was out of sight of the suspects,” Simpson said.
Investigators ask anyone who might have seen or heard anything unusual in the area Sunday morning to call the sheriff’s office at 703-777-0475. Those who wish to remain anonymous can call Loudoun Crime Solvers at 703-777-1919.
