NEW YORK (CNN) -- A Fort Drum soldier has been arrested in the deaths of two fellow soldiers found stabbed in an apartment near the upstate New York military base, the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office said.

The suspect, Joshua Hunter, 20, is being held at an undisclosed location in Ohio after being charged with two counts of second degree murder, Undersheriff Tim Dowe told CNN.

The sheriff's office identified the victims as Spc. Waide T. James, 20, of Cocoa, Florida, and Spc. Diego A. Valbuena, 23, of Port St. Lucie, Florida.

The two men were found dead with multiple stab wounds Tuesday in an apartment at Meadowbrook Apartments in LeRay, New York, Dowe said. The complex houses mostly military families near the main entrance of Fort Drum, he said.

1. I heard about this on local Columbus news last night. They said

that he had a post on his my space account about being "mad at the world" and "will take it out on anybody". So So sad!!!:cry:
Also wanted to add, he just recently (within the last few months) returned from the middle east.

2. but of course it's not "terrorism"...

because this guy's probably white. I somehow doubt that Lieberman will be forming a special committee to look into this.

3. It's called homicide

Timothy McVeigh was white, and there were plenty of inquiries. Read the definition of terrorism.
