A GENERAL has affirmed the death sentence for a US Army sergeant convicted of murdering two fellow soldiers in a grenade attack in Kuwait at the outset of the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, the army said today.
Sergeant Hasan Akbar, 35, is the first US soldier to face the death penalty for killing another soldier since the end of the Vietnam War.

Good. Now, I hope they strap him to a poll and send lead downrange to meet him.

From UCMJ Article 71: "a) If the sentence of the court-martial extends to death, that part of the sentence providing for death may not be executed until approved by the President. In such a case, the President may commute, remit, or suspend the sentence, or any part thereof, as he sees fit. That part of the sentence providing for the death may not be suspended." I don't think that there will be any problems with this.

President Hillary will pardon him. And probably name him Secretary of the Army.

So how long does the Military take to execute someone? According to posters on yesterdays thread it will be a long long time.
In the meantime, send him to Club Gitmo! Those are his people there anyway.
