## Resource

A former Fort Bliss soldier faces 35 years in prison for his role in a July 2023 bar shooting that killed two and wounded four—charges he accepted to avoid trial. Claiming he only fired into the air, prosecutors say he also targeted witnesses. Another ex-soldier, already sentenced to life with parole, was also involved. His sentences will run concurrently, meaning full time behind bars. The DA stressed accountability and the lasting trauma on victims’ families, underscoring how such violence leaves scars no sentence can erase.
