A KHOU 11 News viewer named Mike reached out with this question: "Has the Ft. Hood shooter been put to death, and if so why not?"
Here's what we verified.
Major Nidal Hasan killed 13 people and injured 32 on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood back in 2009. It is considered the worst mass murder at a military base in U.S history. We checked military records and found Hasan was sentenced to death in 2013, and now remains locked up on military death row at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.
In military death penalty cases, there are several mandatory appeal stages that could take up to 10 to 15 years. Ultimately a military death sentence will require final approval by the president.

working for TSA?
President Trump needs to take action....YES!
His execution has been delayed until the Brown Shirt Media can turn him into a white nationalist.
He gave medical lectures IN UNIFORM to high-ranking officers about how Jihad Is OK.
And they simply SAT THERE, listening.
They raised no red flags.
People talk about “the Courage of Our Convictions” but what happens if you don’t have any?
Then you have no courage.
And they didn’t, either.
Hasan is presently 48 years old. Based on the average length of delays....I’d say he has at least five more years to go. The conviction was in 2013, and you can figure a minimum of ten years for this to be carried out.
Most would say that if you have a murder where witnesses number past ten...there probably shouldn’t be more than 30 days of delay before the execution.

Not until the next Democrat administration.
Hasan will die crapping his pants in his wheelchair before the hangman ever has a chance to warm up.
If I was a soldier at Ft. Hood, I would be outraged that my wounds were (at first) not considered Purple Heart -worthy, because it was only a “workplace accident”.
And then, that my life and the lives of my friends were not considered sufficiently valuable to be protected, and that I was not permitted to have closure by knowing the final end of the shooter.
I shouldn’t have to wait decades for that.
With all this recent talk about white nationalism being a motivator for shootings, it does make you wonder about others.
For example, has anyone ever said that this Fort Hood Shooter was motivated by radical Muslim theology? It seems that we’re not allowed to call out Muslim Terror by name, but we are allowed to talk about white supremacist Terror by name.
So what’s the deal so what’s the deal? Why is it in some cases we are allowed to talk about motivations of terrorist or shooters, and then other cases we simply don’t officially know what the motivation was?
Sadly he is not burning in hell
Justice system is a farce.
Many many many Para and Quadriplegics would give anything to get the medical attention this guy get plus attendant care on a daily basis. In an odd sort of way this guy is getting exactly what so many want and need.
More, he was explaining to them why he would do what he ultimately would do so they would change their decisions that put him in a position where he thought his religion required him to become a terrorist.
It was all about Islam, always, not crazy wide eyed Islam but a thoughtful and rational approach to a system of thought born to lead people to violence. Yet even under W they had begun to whitewash this and portray it as anything but about Islam.
Stephen Coughlin wisely says that we do not need to get into arguments about what is or is not the real Islam, but we only need to look at the specific real books that Muslims across the land are actually using, that come with the highest *bling* / blessing of scholarly Authority in the Sunni world that are to teach Muslims how to be good Muslims. These are the very books the Major referenced.
Sun Tzu said to know your enemies, but to be politically correct means not knowing this enemy because knowing him inevitably means you’re an Islamophobe.
He’ll be executed right after SWMNBN is arrested, the coup leaders (Comey, Brennan and Clapper) are in jail and the half breed has escaped extradition in Albania or Iran.
In other words, 12th of never.
I agree on all counts.
Yes, that is the bitter irony of this situation, not to mention the fact that he received full pay and allowances up until his conviction.
The "deal" is that Obama was president when this guy shot up Ft. Hood in 2009. He and his administration would not criticize Muslims, no matter what they did. So calling his actions Muslim terrorism was a no-no.
But I bet Trump doesn't have the same reservations about calling this guy a Muslim terrorist who infiltrated the US military to kill US soldiers.
Just my guess.
He gets all his medical devices—wheelchairs etc—supplied whenever it is needed. I promise it is VERY expensive to be poor and severely disabled.
