Reid Calls for Probe into Death of Adam Hermanson
-------------------------------------------------



Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has asked the State Department and
Pentagon to investigate the death of Adam Hermanson, the
twenty-five-year-old private security contractor who died after being
electrocuted in his dormitory in Baghdad. Hermanson worked for the firm
Triple Canopy. Reid said he wants to know whether Hermanson’s death
resulted from faulty electrical work. Visit democracynow.org to listen
