The Pentagon is about to ask for Trump’s approval to carry out the execution of Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter.
The shooting took place in November of 2009, during the first year of Obama’s presidency. Hasan was a U.S. Army psychiatrist described by others as anti-American. In the shooting, he killed 13 people and injured 30 others.
Since being convicted, he has been held at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.
FOX News reported: Pentagon seeks Trump approval for first US military execution in 60 years following Fort Hood mass shooting. The Pentagon is preparing to ask President Donald Trump to authorize the execution of Nidal Hasan, the former Army major convicted of carrying out the 2009 mass shooting at Fort Hood in Texas, a senior Department of Defense official told The Daily Caller News Foundation.
If approved, it would be the first U.S. military execution in more than six decades. Hasan, a former Army psychiatrist, killed 13 people and wounded 32 others in the attack.
Hasan entered Fort Hood’s Soldier Readiness Center armed with a semi-automatic pistol and opened fire on fellow service members preparing for deployment.
