Soldier's drinking questioned as cause for murder trial
Attorney reports West Germany trip found Army neglect in treating Pvt Todd A. Dock's alcohol problem. Dock, 19, was convicted last November for the June 12 1964 stabbing of a West German taxi driver near Giessen. He awaits execution at Fort Leavenworth as the sole U.S. military death row inmate. Authorities dispute the claim, noting an Army Inspector General letter denied a link to prior discipline.
