More coverage of this insane #atrocity.
#Pentagon officials said on Thursday that the #Army officer convicted in the 2009 #FortHood #shooting would be executed in #public, a practice that ended in the #US nearly a century ago & is most commonly carried out in a handful of countries including #Iran, #NorthKorea & the #Taliban-led government in #Afghanistan.

Unreal. #Trump has dragged us back to the #barbaric days of #PublicExecution.
I am sick.
#Pentagon says the #FiringSquad #execution of #FortHood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be #livestreamed.
I’ve said it before, there are so many things wrong with these people. They are the equivalent of the terrorists who livestream acts of terror.
The last public execution in the #US was in 1936.

There is so much wrong with these people.
#Trump has approved the #execution by #FiringSquad of #NidalMalikHasan, a former US Army psychiatrist who opened fire on dozens of people at #FortHood, Texas, in 2009.
Sean Parnell, the Pentagon’s spox, said Monday that #Defense Secy Pete #Hegseth had recommended death by army firing squad, & Trump approved it.
“Judgement day for Hasan has finally come,” Parnell said on X.

In april 2020, #VanessaGuillén, a 20-year-old #Army private, was bludgeoned to death by a fellow #soldier at #FortHood, in #Texas. The killer, aided by his girlfriend, burned Guillén’s body. Guillén’s remains were discovered 2 months later, buried in a riverbank near the base, after a massive search.
Guillén, the daughter of #Mexican #immigrants, grew up in #Houston, & her murder sparked outrage across TX & beyond.
#FortHood had become known as a particularly perilous assignment for #FemaleSoldiers, & members of #Congress took up the cause of reform. Shortly after her remains were discovered, then-President #Trump himself invited #VanessaGuillén’s family to the WH. With Guillén’s mother seated beside him, Trump spent 25 mins w/the family as TV cameras recorded the scene. [note this was prior to the 2020 #election]

…5 months later, the secretary of the #Army, Ryan McCarthy, announced the results of an investigation. McCarthy cited numerous “leadership failures” at #FortHood & relieved or suspended several officers, including the base’s commanding general. In a press conference, McCarthy said that the murder “shocked our conscience” & “forced us to take a critical look at our systems, our policies, & ourselves.”
