An Army spokesperson said that Sgt. Gabriel Ceville was not detained after he was accused of killing Misty Delatorre in North Carolina.
Sgt. Gabriel Ceville, an Army soldier stationed at North Carolina’s Fort Liberty, had a preliminary hearing this week after he was accused in the killing of his 8-month-old daughter.
Ceville is charged with unpremeditated murder and involuntary manslaughter following the 2023 death of Misty Delatorre, a spokesperson for the Army Office of Special Trial Counsel told HuffPost.
The spokesperson noted that Ceville is also charged with domestic violence, but that this is not connected to Misty.
Despite the serious allegations, Ceville has not been detained or discharged, the Army spokesperson said, adding that the “charges are merely allegations and Sgt. Ceville is presumed innocent until proven guilty.”
Alina Delatorre, Misty’s mother, told ABC’s WTVD that she “cannot grieve properly” while knowing that her “daughter’s murderer is walking free.”
