Prosecutors to seek death penalty when Nidal Malik Hasan faces a court-martial

Prosecutors to seek death penalty when Nidal Malik Hasan faces a court-martial

WASHINGTON - Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan will be tried in a military court-martial, and prosecutors are expected to seek the death penalty, officials said yesterday.

FBI and Army investigators tried to interview Hasan, who is recovering from bullet wounds in a San Antonio, Tex., Army hospital, on Sunday, but he refused and demanded a lawyer.

Under the military system, Hasan's fellow Army officers - almost certainly combat veterans - will rule on whether he is guilty of the mass murder of 12 soldiers and one civilian at Fort Hood, and, if so, on his punishment. A death penalty would be carried out by lethal injection.

The last military execution was carried out in 1961, and the last execution in a federal court case was in 2003.

When convicted and if sentenced to the DP, I expect Ooooobama to commute his sentence to life.

A fair trial and a first class hanging... all before opening time.

It's the Texas way...

You DO realize this will be in a military court don't you?

Obama commuting his sentence would not be a surprise at all...

*smacks forehead*

What in the fat fucking hell does this have to do with Obama? And please, someone show me where he has proven time and again that he sympathizes more with murderers than the victims?

Seriously, I'm here all day, take your time.

Re: Prosecutors to seek death penalty when Nidal Malik Hasan faces a court-martial

i want to know why this guy was still in the army. he had been under investigation by the fbi, the cia had been looking at him, he had been disiplined for argueing with patients under his care and he had been posting on jihad web sites and supporting their cause.
has the military gotten so politically correct that it can't discharge someone for fear of upsetting muslims.

Is the charge treason?
