MS NOW’s
@priyareporter and
@lindsey.pipia spoke exclusively with the wife of a sailor who jumped from the USS Abraham Lincoln after struggling with his mental health. His wife shared his final text messages before he went overboard and says his concerns were repeatedly brushed off as families and lawmakers demand answers about conditions aboard the ship.
A Navy spokesperson said in a statement, “We take every service member’s well-being seriously and have medical and mental health professionals available to assess and address concerns as they arise.”
