Fort Hood attacker's execution to be livestreamed
Original: Fort Hood attacker's execution by firing squad will be livestreamed
The man convicted of the 2009 Fort Hood shooting is to be executed by firing squad, and the execution will be livestreamed. It is a rare and highly unusual step to broadcast an execution, drawing attention to debates over capital punishment, military justice and transparency in how death sentences are carried out in the United States.
Why now: The livestreaming of an execution is an extraordinary and unprecedented development that raises fresh questions about the death penalty.
