Nidal Hasan and the Return of the Military Firing Squad
Nidal Hasan, the US Army psychiatrist convicted of the 2009 Fort Hood shooting that killed 13 people, remains on death row, and discussion has turned to the possibility that the military could carry out his death sentence by firing squad. Commentators are revisiting the case and the broader debate over execution methods in the US armed forces, which have not carried out an execution since 1961.
Why now: Renewed attention to the Fort Hood shooter's death sentence and how the military would carry it out.
