Laura Lee Vickery-Clay was 18 and serving as an Army Private when she was shot to death at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, on December 15, 1986. The investigation identified Specialist 4th Class Ronald Adrin Gray as one of the perpetrators connected to her killing.

Gray’s court-martial produced testimony and forensic evidence describing a pattern of premeditated sexual assaults, robberies, and killings. Military jurors convicted him on multiple counts under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for the rapes and murders of Vickery-Clay and another victim, Kimberly Ann Ruggles. Civilian proceedings in Cumberland County Superior Court resulted in multiple life sentences after Gray pleaded guilty to a string of felonies, including murder and rape; authorities indicated a possible parole eligibility in 60 years. Military prosecutors described the crimes as brutal and calculated.

Are there family members, fellow soldiers, or investigators who can add detail about Laura Lee Vickery-Clay’s life or the events at Fort Bragg in December 1986?
