Who was Lynn Armstrong Reister and what happened to her?
The upcoming episode of Dateline: Secrets Uncovered will look at the death of Lynn Armstrong Reister, who was a U.S. Army Captain.
During her career in the military, she was posted in Germany between 1994 and 1997. It was during her time in Germany that Lynn reportedly met her future husband Sergeant Roger Raymond Reister, who was also posted in Germany.
Soon after their meeting, they fell in love and in February 1996, the military couple tied the knot. In June 1996, Captain Lynn Armstrong Reister gave birth to her son with her husband Sergeant Roger. Later, Lynn, Roger and their son moved to El Paso in November 1997.
Initially, everything was great between the couple and they even seemed like a happy family to the outsiders. However, in December 2000, the couple reportedly began having some marital issues and decided to separate for more than a week. By January 2001, however, the couple had reconciled.
Soon after their reconciliation, Captain Lynn found out that she was pregnant with her and her husband's second child. She had also received a job offer from a university in Minnesota to teach ROTC. However, the heartbreaking murder took place, cutting her life short.
On May 24, 2001, the pregnant Army Captain's life was brutally snatched when she was fatally stabbed to death in the bedroom of her house in Texas. She was six months pregnant and 30-years-old when the horrifying incident took place.
As the investigation proceeded, it was revealed that Lynn's brother-in-law Rodney Reister was the one who had killed her. Reportedly, Rodney had stabbed his sister-in-law with a knife at the command of his brother and Lynn's husband Roger Raymond Reister.
The Army Sergeant was found guilty on four accounts in the brutal murder of his wife and was sentenced to life in prison. Meanwhile, Rodney also pleaded guilty to the stabbing of Lynn Armstrong Reister and was also given a sentence of life imprisonment.
