European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - February 27, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Thursday february 27, 1986 the stars and stripes Page 11 aft Rii Landers dear Ann Landers i am enclosing a newspaper article from the Houston chronicle that appeared several weeks ago. It is about a Man who was convicted of killing his adoptive Mother to collect insurance Money. According to the article prosecutors claim that this Young Man killed three other relatives Tor the same reason. He received almost a half million dollars by killing the four people. Hardly a week goes by that you Don t read in the newspapers of others who have committed murder in order to inherit Money or collect insurance. Several years ago in Houston a father kilted his son for the insurance by feeding him Poison Candy. That father was sentenced to death for that crime Ever time i read of such a tragedy wonder Why there in t a Law against a person inheriting Money from someone they have murdered. It seems insane to let a person collect Money on the death of someone he killed or am i crazy sign me ashamed of Mankind san Antonio dear san you Aren t crazy. Allowing a murderer o collect insurance on the death of the person he or she murdered is the height of injustice and lunacy. According to my consultant. Jack  assistant counsel with Prudential life insurance in Minneapolis the common Law says that one who latently Nauy Aad Fec Mimsy takes the life or and her Caa Aat receive the benefits result ing fam Natl Crone. The problem is thai state Fen wry. Ana4fcer Cam polion a person is not Gordha Valr Jaimini a murderer until conf Khejl to fact a the Crux of our Justice system often there is a delay in the Coots Alai the Money May come through before Ike Brill Heth by or before the Perpe Trator is cart Chat. Sib another complication the insurance policy is a contract with the policyholder and not with the beneficiary. Or. Pfeilsticker says most insurance Compa Nies if they Are aware of the situation would turn the Money oter to the court and let the court decide who is the proper recipient. Whoever said the love of Money is the Root of All evil knew what he was talking about. Dear Ann Landers this is for awaiting your reply in California the woman who wanted to know if she would Ever get Over her Lover who was a married Man. Slop fooling yourself. Time has a Way of filtering out things you Don t wish to remember. You recall Only the fun and pleasure of your escape from the real world. You never had to live with the Guy Day in and Day out. In other words your time together was mostly storybook stuff. You remember the excitement of your Clandestine meetings the to null of anticipation and the passion of stolen sex. You never shared the problems of kids overdue Bills troubles at work and in Law garbage. What you remember is not a real life relationship but fantasy. Why Don t you face the fact that your Lover needed to run away from a life he found difficult to Han dle like most married men be used you As an escape valve from the pres sures. You were the Little bit of heaven when things at Home were rough. As Ann Landers would say it s time you woke up and smelled the c no exceptions to joint travel rules Usa eur says i am married to a  army. I recently got out of the service on a pregnancy discharge. We were stationed in Germany when i got out. We had one child which was not my Hus band s. We lived in government housing on my command sponsorship before my expiration of term of service ets from the army. My husband was not command sponsored at the time. When i was in the process of getting out he tried to get his tour changed to with dependent to become command sponsored because i wanted to go to the United states to have the baby and then return to Germany to live with him. His personnel and administration Cen Ter regional personnel Center Pac rec told him be could t apply for com Mand sponsorship until i got out of the army and got a passport because they could t Cut orders without a passport number. Therefore we had to ship All of oar household goods bade to the states and move out of government quarters because we did t have any place to store our Bons goods in Germany even though i d planned on returning after having the baby in september. After we got the necessary paperwork submitted my husband received his com Mand sponsorship. I received dependent travel orders in november. But to my Surprise they weren t what i d hoped for. The orders did not authorize us a guaranteed ticket on a Mac flight Only space available travel. Can you imagine me a 3-year-old and a 2-month-old baby sitting at the Airport on a Wing and a prayer waiting for four to seven Days hotel and food expenses were mine. Well i decided to go commercial. Things got worse As i read the orders. We were not authorized shipment of household goods either even though we were now command sponsored and had been assigned government quarters. I questioned the transportation office that Cut the orders it. Binning and it. Mcpherson As to Why we weren t authorized tickets and household goods ship ment. They told me because my husband and i were not married when he made his permanent change of station pcs to Germany we were not entitled to this even though we were married when he received his command sponsorship. He even extended to become command sponsored. Now we Are Here in Germany with a couple of items we mailed att or own expense. Everything we own is in the states in storage. Now we have to stay Here for three years and buy everything we have in storage All Over again just because we decided to marry months after we both had a permanent change of station to Germany. Even though we weren t married upon his pcs to Ger Many does t mean that when we did marry we did t accumulate anything. I was really shocked and disappointed when i received those useless orders. Is there an exception to policy or something somewhere to help us  Imbu.
