From the link, a bit of cheer:
Here is the statement of a US Army lawyer (Judge Advocate General) as to the jurisdiction issue:
Tom Kenniff, attorney, Army JAG officer and Iraq war veteran who served in Tikrit, was online Friday, Nov. 6, at Noon ET to discuss what happened at Ft. Hood, crimes committed in the military, possible motives and what circumstances can lead to such occurrences.
Thomas Keniff: “I believe the Judge Advocate General’s Office on Ft. Hood will have exclusive jurisdiction over this case, at least for purposes of charging him with multiple counts of murder, attempted murder, etc. This can be, and most certainly be a death penalty case. Its possible he could also be charged by the Feds with committing an act of terrorism, but my guess is the Army will get first crack at him.”
Ohhh Good news indeed!
