Slain Marine's Kin Blasts John Murtha
The aunt of slain Lance Cpl. Miguel Terrazas, whose death in a roadside bombing in Haditha, Iraq last November prompted his fellow Marines to launch what military critics are calling a massacre of innocent civilians, is blasting Rep. John Murtha for prejudging their actions. "Putting Michael's battalion in a bad light, it's like putting Michael in a bad light," Rosario Terrazas told radio host Steve Malzberg, filling in on Bill Bennett's "Morning in America" show. "It's especially hurtful when certain people make statements that may be opinions but come across as facts," she added. "It's a little difficult to hear people making statements indicating that these allegations are true. There's an ongoing investigation and nothing has been concluded to this point." Asked if she was referring to Rep. Murtha specifically, Mrs. Terrazas told Malzberg: "Yes, his statements come across as though they are facts at this point and it's a little bit unfair."

Of the allegations against Lance Cpl. Terrazas' fellow soldiers, she said: "It's very difficult to believe that Marines would react in the way that they're being accused of."
