Charles Dean
Charles "Charlie" Dean (died 1974) was the brother of Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean; Democracy for America Chairman Jim Dean; and political activist Bill Dean. In 1974, Charlie, who had been traveling through southeast Asia at the time, was captured and killed by Pathet Lao guerrillas. His death and the subsequent repatriation of his remains to the United States have been the subject of speculation and controversy.
==Biography==
Charlie attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where he was active in student government and the anti-war movement. In 1972, he went on to work as the Orange County, NC coordinator for Democrat George S. McGovern's 1972 presidential campaign.
In 1974, he traveled to Laos to visit a friend who worked for USAID. Together with an Australian friend named Neil Ronald Sharman, Charlie stayed in a bungalow on the Mekong River, planning to meet up with another friend who was serving in the Peace Corps in Nepal.
In early September 1974, Charlie and Neil took a raft down the Mekong River to Thailand. They were stopped at a checkpoint near a small village called Pak Him Boun, two miles southeast of the capital of Laos, Vientiane, by Pathet Lao communist guerrillas who imprisoned the two, apparently because they were carrying cameras. The U.S. Government learned of the capture, and Charlie was classified as a POW-MIA although he was a civilian. Charlie and Neal were executed by the Pathet Lao on or about December 14, 1974.
