[Owen]

Jeff Reid, one of my buddies, was shot and killed by a guard. A piece of wood was leaning against the warning wire and he went at night to get it to try and make a fire to keep us warm, in doing so he was shot at twice but the guard missed, he put up his hands , the guard came up to him within five yards and shot him again (with his hands still up) and he was laying on the ground the guard put another bullet in him, it was plain murder.

I know dates are out by 3 days but this has to be him.
