William Alfred Sport Holloway was a 96-year-old World War II U.S. Army veteran from Fairmont who died on April 8, 2018, while hospitalized at the Louis A. Johnson Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Clarksburg. He was admitted in March 2018 for confusion, hallucinations and anxiety; although diabetic and treated with insulin, his hospitalization focused on stabilizing psychological and behavioral symptoms and discharge was being planned by late March.

In early April Holloway suffered a prolonged, severe hypoglycemic episode. Family filings say hospital staff administered concentrated dextrose repeatedly—more than 15 ampules of D50 plus IV dextrose over roughly 30 hours—but his blood sugar remained dangerously low and he died. His family was initially told pneumonia and sepsis caused the death; his body was later exhumed on December 17, 2018, for further examination that documented the persistent hypoglycemia.

Investigators later linked Holloway’s collapse to unexplained insulin administrations affecting several veterans on Ward 3A. Attention focused on overnight nursing assistant Reta Mays; federal filings identify Holloway by the initials W.A.H. and prosecutors say Mays admitted to deliberately administering insulin to cause deaths. Would anyone who knew Holloway at the VA around March–April 2018 come forward with information about his care or room assignments?
