Fort Hood shooter Major Nidal Hasan forcibly shaved in military prison after being sentenced to death

• Major Nidal Hasan began growing a beard in the years after the November 2009 shooting that left 13 dead and 30 wounded

The Army psychiatrist sentenced to death for the Fort Hood shooting rampage has been forcibly shaved, an Army spokesman said on Tuesday.

Major Nidal Hasan began growing a beard in the years after the November 2009 shooting that left 13 dead and 30 wounded. The beard prompted delays to his court-martial because it violated Army grooming regulations.

He was convicted of all charges last month at his court-martial at the Central Texas Army post and sentenced to death.

Now, Hasan is an inmate at the U.S. Detention Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, home to the military death row.

Lt. Col. S. Justin Platt, an Army spokesman, said in a statement on Tuesday that Hasan had been shaved. He did not specify when or provide details, however.

Officials at Fort Leavenworth previously had said Hasan would be subject to Army regulations.

Hasan dispensed with all criminal defense counsel and represented himself during his trial. A message left with John Galligan, Hasan's first criminal defense attorney who still represents him in civil matters, was not returned.

Hasan said he grew the beard because his Muslim faith required it and was not meant as a show of disrespect.

"America demands justice for the fallen at Fort Hood!"

Amen to that, FRiend! They fell in Combat as surely as any have in our long history! And this Administration will not even acknowledge them as combat casualties! An absolute travesty!

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

That’ll work too! umhummm

[Marcella]

“I wish they would put him in a cell full of shi....aving cream”

And give him only pork sandwiches to eat.

I bought some pork tamales today - they will be yum yum, good.

[rktman]

Well, the only thing this asshat will die of is gonna be of old age. Or some other prisoner at Ft. Leavenworth sticks a shiv between his ribs. Executed? Not bloody likely.

“once after nicking himself while barbering his long face”

He has a really ugly face. I know he can’t help it, but it is so long and out of proportion. Don’t know what his rich wife saw in him.

[Conspiracy Guy]

One of them fellars was from Arkansas. Git it?

[digger48]

an old lawnmower blade works quite nicely.....in a pinch

[Conspiracy Guy]

Doyle told me to tell you to send an amulance and a hearst.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I like the way they shaved Steve McQueen in PAPILLON.

“Gimme sum a yer fried tater tots, goat boy.”

I used to live on Fort Leavenworth.
Not in the stockade, but I know some of those inmates—who were not released to do chores—were some bad boys. Think Telly Savalas in ‘The Dirty Dozen’, but not acting.
And they love officers ........

Make him eat bacon, ham, and eggs before cutting him up for the dogs.

Better yet, slather him with pig grease, cover 'im with soy pellet dust, and drop him into a hog pen with 15 foot sides.

Won't be anything left but well-fed hogs.

Hope they used a belt sander.

[Veggie Todd]

I hope it was by an an attractive female barber who made it a point to rub up against him in a provocative way.

Yeah, and I hope she was menstruating at the time.

[Vendome]

Hope they plucked every hair on his body and then applied astringent they

[Oberon]

Now, really, there was no need to shave him.

They could have taken that beard off with a blowtorch.

[Iron Munro]

I hope they used the appropriate tools to do the job

[Edward Teach]

Depending on how fast his beard grows, he may be forcibly shaved every few days.

[smokingfrog]

It’s about damn time!

Of course. He would NEVER disrespect us. Shoot us or cut our throats but never disrespect us.
