Nidal Malik Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter responsible for the deaths of 13 individuals during a 2009 shooting, has been scheduled for execution by firing squad on December 3. This marks the first time since World War II that a U.S. military execution will be carried out by firing squad, following approval from former President Trump and confirmation from the Pentagon. The decision has reignited discussions surrounding capital punishment methods in the military, as well as reactions from survivors of the tragic event.
