The United States wants to broadcast live online the execution of the Fort Hood shooter by military law
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the public will be able to watch a live broadcast of Nadal Malik Hassan's execution by firing squad in what would be the first public execution in the U.S. in nearly a century. Hassan was sentenced to death for shooting 13 unarmed U.S. soldiers at the Fort Hood military base in Texas in 2009. His execution date is set for December 3. Although Trump has approved the decision, legal experts have questioned its legality, noting that Hassan's appeal process has not yet concluded and that the live broadcast of the execution may face platform policy restrictions and ethical disputes.
