Bush ranch neighbor lets 'Peace Mom' use land Peace mom's husband files for divorce
The husband of Cindy Sheehan, the California mother camped outside President Bush's ranch in Texas to protest the death of a son who was killed while serving with U.S. forces in Iraq, filed for divorce, according to court documents.
Patrick Sheehan filed a petition for the dissolution of his marriage Friday in Solano County Superior Court. His lawyer did not immediately return a call seeking comment Monday. The couple's eldest child, Casey, 24, was an Army soldier killed in April 2004. Cindy Sheehan said the stress of the death led to the separation of the couple, who were high school sweethearts.
It also led her to take her activism just short of the president's door step, where she has held an anti-war demonstration for more than a week. Sheehan, who has been joined by more than 100 anti-war activists, vowed to remain in Texas through Bush's August vacation, unless he meets with her. She wants to ask Bush what cause her son died for and ask why he hasn't encouraged his daughters to join the military. The Sheehans have three surviving adult children.
