Among other things, Vanessa Guillen also complained about s*xual assault in her workplace to her mother. There are numerous problems with the U.S. Army, and this documentary plans to address them, much like the social media uprising after Vanessa Guillen’s death. Talking about the film, Director Christy Wegener said:
After Robinson killed himself while being pursued by cops, Cecily Aguilar was arrested for being an accomplice to the murder. She is still awaiting trial at the McLennan County Jail in Waco, Texas.
Who was Cecily Aguilar, and how was she involved in Vanessa Guillen’s murder?
Cecily Aguilar is a 22-year-old local woman who was married to one of the soldiers at Fort Hood. She and her husband, Keon Aguilar, were estranged, and she was dating another soldier, Aaron David Robinson. This was in violation of the Army’s fraternization rules. When Vanessa found out about the relationship, Aaron killed her with a hammer in fear of getting discovered.
Aguilar spoke to the authorities multiple times after Vanessa Guillen went missing and repeatedly denied knowing anything. But after Vanessa’s remains were found along the Leon river, Aguilar changed her story and revealed that Robinson had killed Vanessa.
After killing Vanessa, Robinson allegedly took Aguilar’s help to dispose of the body. He also reportedly confessed to her about the murder. Aguilar is accused of helping Robinson dismember the body and bury it.
Aguilar later claimed that Robinson held her at gunpoint and asked her to help bury Vanessa’s body. But according to documents recorded at the time of her confession, this claim did not stand. The document read:
Aguilar’s trial has been set for January 23, 2023. She recently went to the Waco Federal Court House for a hearing. According to reports, she will remain at the McLennan County Jail in Waco, Texas, till her trial, which has already been delayed multiple times, commences.
