WHITFIELD: The wife of the U.S. soldier charged with murdering 17 Afghans has set up a legal defense fund. Kari Bales, wife of Army Staff Sergeant Robert Bales says his family cannot pay the legal bills. She says she said she doesn't know what happened in Afghanistan except what she was told by the U.S. government. Authorities say Bales left his outpost and went house to house, gunning down villagers. If found guilty, he could face anything from life in prison to the death penalty. Meanwhile, another U.S. soldier's death in Afghanistan is being investigated. CNN's Deborah Feyerick talked to the heartbroken family.
