A Muslim Soldier and his wife in North Carolina, upset over how their infant son's body was handled after his death, may join a legal battle in Kansas over whether the military respects religious freedoms. Pfc. Eli Agee and his wife, Mackenzie, are angry that an autopsy was performed - over their objections - on their son after he died May 3 at his home at Fort Bragg, N.C. The Agees are Muslim and believe an autopsy desecrates the body. While doctors suspect sudden infant death syndrome, the Army said the autopsy will determine the exact cause of death.

This week, a judge set a May 27 deadline for responses from federal attorneys. ...
