Congress Seeks Benefits for Family of Winchester Man Killed in Benghazi

Congress is “really close” to obtaining proper death benefits for the family of a Winchester man killed in the 2012 Benghazi attacks.

U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch told the Boston Herald that Congress is nearing a solution, but work still needs to be done.

Glen Doherty a former military contractor, was one of four Americans soliders who were killed in the attacks on Benghazi. Doherty’s family has yet to receive death benefits because he didn’t have a spouse or child.

His family not only wants the benefits, they also hope a law will be passed to avoid such an incident in the future.
