FORT HOOD, Texas, Aug 23 (Reuters) – A jury of U.S. Army
officers convicted Major Nidal Hasan on Friday of all 13 charges
of premeditated murder and all 32 charges of attempted
premeditated murder for the November 2009 shooting spree at Fort
Hood, Texas.
The convictions mean Hasan could face the death penalty by
lethal injection. The jury will begin hearing the penalty phase
of the court-martial on Monday and make a recommendation to the
judge, who will determine the sentence.
