Nidal Hasan, who was sentenced to death for the 2009 mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, will be executed by firing squad on Dec. 3, according to a memo from the acting Army secretary.
The execution, the first carried out by the U.S. military in more than 60 years, is scheduled for 1 p.m. CT, according to the memo issued Tuesday by acting Army Secretary Adam Telle.
The Pentagon announced Monday that Hasan would be executed by firing squad after President Donald Trump approved the decision Friday.
Under the military’s execution process for prisoners on death row, the Army secretary initiates the proceedings, which then require approval from the defense secretary and eventually the president.
Under Army policy, executions must happen within 150 days of the president approving it, but no sooner than 60 days.
The military has not executed a service member since 1961, when Pvt. John Bennett was put to death after being convicted of the rape and attempted murder of an 11-year-old girl in Austria.
On Nov. 5, 2009, Hasan, then an Army psychiatrist, opened fire at the Soldier Readiness Processing Center at the Fort Hood military base, killing 12 soldiers and one civilian before he was shot, severely wounded and arrested.
Hasan was convicted of 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted murder and sentenced to death in 2013. He was sent to a military detention center at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.
He is one of four death row inmates in the Army justice system.
The announcement of his execution comes after ABC News reported in June that the Army had been planning military executions, according to internal documents and officials familiar with the matter.
Army regulation dictates that at least two media outlets should be selected to witness the execution.

Why the Hell isn’t it tomorrow? Why wasn’t it five minutes after the verdict? Rhetorical questions, but also not rhetorical questions.
“Army regulation dictates that at least two media outlets should be selected to witness the execution”
Give the assignment to Fox and Newsmax and tell the rest to suck it because you know how they would report it.
Let me know if you need any help.

Screw FOX. Pick OAN or some other conservative outlet.............
>> Army regulation dictates that at least two media outlets should be selected to witness the execution.
FreeRepublic and Breitbart. :-)
Exactly.
I’d give it to OAN or Salem Media, the owners of Townhall, Red State, PJ Media, Twitchy, Bearing Arms and Hot Air.
Army regulations on executions are adhered to. “ Execution is performed NLT 150 days after POTUS/CINC signature, but no sooner than 60 days. “
Nidal Hasan should have gone to his eternal judgement years ago.
The sooner justice is served the better.
need time to set up the pay per view
How fitting! Isn’t December 3 National Pork Sausage Day?
It’s about time Hasan faces execution and that his execution will be carried out at Ft. Hood is very appropriate. I am certain that the firing squad won’t botch the job, but perhaps there should be at least 50 shooters just to be sure and feed him bacon and sausage as his last meal.
Broadcast it publicly, at half time.
Trump needs to show Tn how it’s done.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that they'll have no difficulty "finding a vein."
Regards,
Broadcast it on AFRTS and VOA. “Stars and Stripes” and OAN should also be included to cover it.
