👆 Fisher grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska. His mother, Connie, married a man who, she says, was abusive. Then she somehow managed to marry a second husband who was also physical, she says. Fisher dropped out of high school, then got his G.E.D. at a Job Corps program out in Chadron, in the northwestern corner of the state. He scored average to below average academically. He was convicted of attempted possession of a destructive device while he was there. Timing devices were found in his possession, and there were indications that he was contemplating getting back at someone he didn’t like. In Lincoln, he had held a series of menial jobs—at McDonald’s, at TGI Friday’s—and he couldn’t even do the McDonald’s job particularly well.

The S.L.D.N. has also discovered numerous cases that amounted to witchhunts, in which soldiers were pursued for alleged homosexuality with almost religious zeal. In one case, an air-force senior airman named Bryan Harris, while being prosecuted for sodomy and assault on Hickam Air Force Base in Hawaii, was given a lesser sentence after supplying the names of 17 other soldiers who had allegedly engaged in homosexual activity. In another case, involving a navy senior chief petty officer named Timothy McVeigh, a navy investigator allegedly violated federal law by misrepresenting himself in order to obtain confidential information about McVeigh from America Online. He told an employee of AOL that he was a close acquaintance of McVeigh’s and was trying to find him, when in fact he was investigating him for alleged homosexuality. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2000/05/kentucky-murder-200005
