Pentagon to broadcast Hassan's execution online
The U.S. Department of Defense (Pentagon) announced plans to broadcast Nidal Hasan's execution live online, in a groundbreaking move at the level of American military institutions. The execution is scheduled for December 3rd at Fort Hood military base in Texas, following approval from President Donald Trump. The live broadcast aims to illustrate the consequences of the crimes Hasan committed, as he was convicted in 2013 for killing 13 people and injuring 32 others during an attack at Fort Hood in 2009. If carried out as planned, it will be the first firing squad execution in the U.S. military since 1945, amid legal and ethical debates over the transparency of the execution process, raising questions about the future of such procedures.
