Trump Clears Army Firing Squad for Fort Hood Killer of 13

Nearly 17 years after the Fort Hood attack, President Donald Trump approved moving Nidal Malik Hasan toward execution by Army firing squad, according to Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell.
Hasan was sentenced for the 2009 massacre in which he killed 13 people and wounded 32 others while opening fire at Fort Hood.
Pete Hegseth recommended the execution, and the Army secretary will now set the time and place for carrying it out.
The decision revives one of the U.S. military's deadliest insider attacks and advances a long-delayed punishment in the military justice system.
