BELTON (February 19, 2010)Bell County Sheriff Dan Smith confirmed Friday that his office and Fort Hood officials have been talking for several weeks about transferring accused Fort Hood gunman Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan from a San Antonio military hospital to the Bell County Jail.
Hasan is charged with 13 counts of murder in the shooting rampage on Nov. 5, 2009 at the posts Soldier Readiness Center that left 13 dead and 29 injured.
He was left paralyzed in an exchange of gunfire with two civilian police officers who are credited with ending the massacre.
For 15 years, the Bell County Jail has had a contract with Fort Hood for housing military prisoners charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Because of this existing contractual relationship, Smith said, Fort Hood has asked me to consider housing Hasan in our jail.
Hasans attorney John Galligan confirmed that the Army wants to move Hasan, but said he would rather his client be transferred either to Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center or to a secure location on post.
Hasan is facing an Article 32 Hearing, the military equivalent of a civilian grand jury review, which will determine whether he stands trial for the deadly shooting
Aw man, that is pretty bad.
(shudder) That would be more cruel than waterboarding.. I like waterboarders.....
This should read, "He was left paralyzed after he shot one police officer and was then shot down by another police officer which ended the massacre."
What IS this guy’s medical status? Paralyzed, as originally rumored?
This article merely states;
“He was left paralyzed in an exchange of gunfire with two civilian police officers who are credited with ending the massacre.”
What??? No military lock-up????
Why not?
Web search for Escapes from Bell County jail and wasn't martrydom one of his aspirations?
You’re assuming he doesn’t get Dahlmer’d in jail.
There are many patriotic Americans who just happen to be criminals. Hope the guy gets stuck in general population, someone will be along to take care of the problem swiftly.
The cynic in me wonder if sombody is hoping he’ll get shivved - no trial, no embarassing revelations, everybody can put their heads back in the sand.
There may not be the appropriate pre-trial detention facilities at Ft. Hood. After his court-martial, he'll be transferred to USDB at Ft. Leavenworth. He'll remain there, on death row, until his execution.
I certainly hope so....
"Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who allegedly killed 11 [count now 13, or 14 if you include the unborn child of the 21-year-old female soldier -etl] people before being shot and wounded by police at Fort Hood, had said Muslims should "rise up" and attack Americans in retaliation for the US war in Iraq, a former army colleague said."
"He said Muslims should stand up and fight the aggressor and that we should not be in the war in the first place." He said that Major Hasan said he was "happy" when a US soldier was killed in an attack on a military recruitment centre in Arkansas in June. An American convert to Islam was accused of the shootings.
Col Lee alleged that other officers had told him that Major Hasan had said "maybe people should strap bombs on themselves and go to Times Square" in New York."

>> Thats easy to fix.Just make sure hes in the Nazi skinhead cellblock. <<
He would be best buddies with the skinheads as they both could talk about how much they hate the juice until the middle of the night.
Remember the ties that Nazi-ism has with PLO from before WW-II. And that IRAN means Aryan....
What about provisions for his halal meals and access to a private prayer room? Jeez, where's your respect?

Excellent catch - the black male officer who actually brought Hassan down was given virtually no recognition. And I cite his race and sex because I believe they are why he wasn't recognized - wouldn't want the homies to get any ideas about rejecting Islam...
If I was a Deputy I might have to take a phone book or a rubber hose to his head and say he was resisting....LOL

Bexar County hosegow would be good, or any of the Huntsville facilities.
I suggest his new fellow inmates show compasion and give him daily bacon rub downs. The rest of my thoughts on this POS can not be printed in a public forum.
