Can anyone imagine the terror this officer must have felt?

Fort Hood suspect kicked gun from officer's hand
August 16, 2013


FORT HOOD, Texas — With the gunman standing over her, Fort Hood police officer Kimberly Munley tried to fire her weapon as she lay bleeding on the ground. Nothing happened.
The shooter then kicked the gun from her hand. But then the shooter's gun malfunctioned and he stumbled back as one of Munley's fellow officers yelled, "Drop your weapon." The officer fired, and the gunman fell.
Munley recalled those seconds while testifying Friday at the military trial of Maj. Nidal Hasan, who is accused of killing 13 people that day at the Texas military base in November 2009. The Army psychiatrist also is accused of wounding more than 30 others in the worst mass shooting ever on the U.S. military base.
When asked if the man who tried to kill her was in the courtroom, Munley — who was shot three times — pointed to Hasan.
Munley told jurors that she quickly spotted someone in Army clothing with a gun after arriving at the scene, a medical building on the Army post that had been crowded with soldiers preparing to deploy. She then heard her colleague, Sgt. Mark Todd, order the man to drop his weapon.
Munley said she saw a red laser flash across her eyes, and she began taking fire. She said the gunman was running and firing in her direction, so she took cover behind a building.
"I realized he was not slowing down whatsoever," she testified. "He rounded the corner and within eight feet or so, we blindly began to exchange fire."
She was shot once in her right hand and twice in her right leg.
"When I fell to the ground, the shooter was closer to me," she testified. "I tried to continue to fire. My weapon would not fire. Some sort of malfunction in my weapon. I see him standing over me trying to shoot me."
She said Hasan then "kicked the weapon out of my hand." She said she crawled to regain her gun as Hasan was trying to fix his weapon when she heard Todd again order the gunman to drop his weapon. Todd then fired his gun, Munley said.
"I see him go down," she said of Hasan. She explained that she then scooted herself up a wall to "try to put pressure on what I know is an arterial wound."
Hasan — who is acting as his own attorney — raised no objections and declined to ask any questions during Munley's testimony, which has largely been his strategy since the trial began last week. His lack of defense so far has allowed prosecutors to call more than 70 witnesses, indicating that the trial could wrap up far sooner than the months-long timeline originally announced by the judge.

Fort Hood prosecutors hope to address motive in worst mass shooting ever on US military base
August 18, 2013

FORT HOOD, Texas — The prosecutors pursuing the death penalty against the Army psychiatrist accused in the 2009 Fort Hood shooting rampage will soon begin trying to answer a difficult but key question: Why did Maj. Nidal Hasan attack his fellow soldiers in the worst mass shooting ever on a U.S. military base?

Both sides offered a few hints so far. Although he's been mostly silent in the courtroom, Hasan used his brief opening statement to tell jurors he had "switched sides" in what he called America's war with Islam; he later leaked documents to the media showing he believed he could be a martyr.

Military prosecutors opened the trial by saying they would show that Hasan felt he had a "jihad duty," referring to a Muslim term for a religious war or struggle. After calling almost 80 witnesses over two weeks, prosecutors said Friday they would begin tackling the question this week.

How much they can say to jurors, however, may be limited by the judge. Even though plenty of information about Hasan's extremist views has been published since the rampage, the 13 military officers on the jury said they had not closely followed the case and wouldn't read news coverage during the trial.

Prosecutors asked the military judge, Col. Tara Osborn, on Friday to approve evidence and several witnesses to explain Hasan's mindset. Such evidence includes references to Hasan Akbar, a Muslim soldier sentenced to death for attacking fellow soldiers in Kuwait during the 2003 Iraq invasion.

Prosecutor Col. Steve Henricks told Osborn that Hasan had shown interest in Akbar's case and prosecutors wanted to prove Hasan's attack was a "copycat." The skeptical judge told Henricks she didn't want to hold a "mini-trial" of Akbar and asked how he would introduce the case to jurors. Henricks said he planned to call a prosecutor to discuss its basics, but he didn't identify the prosecutor. Akbar was prosecuted by Col. Mike Mulligan, the lead prosecutor in Hasan's trial.

Henricks has alleged that besides his so-called "jihad duty," Hasan was looking for ways to get out of deploying, and he said witnesses could include former classmates who heard him talking about suicide bombers.

Prosecutors also said they wanted to introduce three emails, but they didn't disclose details. The FBI has said Hasan sent numerous emails starting in December 2008 to Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical U.S.-born Islamic cleric killed by a drone strike in Yemen in 2011.

Osborn promised to rule Monday on what prosecutors could present.

Even if Osborn keeps out most or all of the disputed evidence — a possibility since any issue could come up on appeal — prosecutors have done plenty to prove Hasan deserves the death penalty, said Richard Rosen, a military law expert who teaches at Texas Tech University. He described some of what prosecutors hope to present as further "nails in the coffin."

"This isn't a terrorism trial, and she may decide that this would just unnecessarily inflame the jury, and that it's not worth the risk," Rosen said. "But it clearly is relevant evidence."

Hasan: ‘I was defending my religion’
August 18, 2013

In a letter to the Killeen Daily Herald, Maj. Nidal Hasan summed up his motive for the Nov. 5, 2009, Fort Hood shooting: “I was defending my religion.”
Hasan, who is Muslim, mailed three pages of handwritten notes and three additional typed pages to the Herald’s newsroom from his cell at the Bell County Jail.
“It is one thing for the United States to say ‘We don’t want Shariah (God’s) law to govern us’ but its [sic] not acceptable to have a foreign policy that tries to replace Shariah law for a more secular form of government,” the accused Fort Hood shooter wrote.
The hand-written portions contain new information about the motive of the 42-year-old Army psychiatrist accused of carrying out the worst mass shooting on a military base in U.S. history. The letter postmarked July 31 was received late last week.
The typed documents are identical to an earlier release sent to Fox News in which Hasan stated Shariah trumps U.S. law.
It is not the first time Hasan released documents to the Herald. He mailed a copy of a transcript of a conversation he had with an Al Jazeera reporter and authorized the release of a portion of his intended opening statement to a Herald reporter through his former civilian attorney, John Galligan.

Hasan trial can cause new stress for veterans
August 18, 2013

Regardless of the outcome of accused Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Hasan’s military court martial, the case likely has caused some strain on area veterans and military personnel attempting to embrace civilian life, mental health advocates say.
On one hand, families of the 13 people who were killed in the attack may feel some sense of relief that the trial is finally underway after being delayed for nearly four years.

Some of the more than 60 witnesses and survivors who testified may feel a cathartic release in being able to confront Hasan in court and relay their experiences, the experts say.

But details of the Nov. 5, 2009 shooting on the military base that left 13 dead and dozens wounded may also trigger area veterans’ memories of combat experiences, leading to physiological and mental responses that could impact their daily lives, said Suzy Gulliver, a psychologist who heads Scott & White’s new Brain Research on American Veterans and Emergency Responders (BRAVER) Institute in Waco.

Judge in Nidal Hasan court-martial bans al Qaeda-linked e-mail, other evidence
By Chelsea J. Carter, CNN
updated 11:58 AM EDT, Mon August 19, 2013

Fort Hood, Texas (CNN) -- A military judge on Monday excluded e-mails between an Army psychiatrist and a key member of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula from being used in the death penalty case, evidence the prosecution contends goes to the heart of the motive of the shooting rampage at Fort Hood that left 13 people dead.
The judge, Col. Tara Osborn, also refused to allow prosecutors to use materials they maintain show Maj. Nidal Hasan's interest in the actions of Army Sgt. Hasan Akbar, the American soldier sentenced to death for killing two soldiers and wounding more than a dozen others at the start of the Iraq war -- an attack he said he carried out to stop soldiers from killing Muslims.
"The court believes Sgt. Akbar is not on trial in this case," Osborn said. "It would only open the door to a mini-trial" and confuse the issue.
The rulings came at the start of the third week of the court-martial of Hasan, who is defending himself against 13 counts of murder and 32 counts of attempted murder in connection with the November 5, 2009, attack.

(Bolded by me)  There are so many ways the prosecution has shown premeditation imo.  Of course, since Hasan is representing himself, that alone probably means an appeal.  JMHO

Judge rules out evidence of early extremism in Hasan case

ORT HOOD — The presiding judge in Maj. Nidal Hasan's court-martial ruled today the prosecution cannot use presentations Hasan created that may have shown sympathy toward Islamic extremism.
Judge Col. Tara Osborn ruled the presentations, authored while Hasan was in medical residency and in a fellowship years before the Nov. 5, 2009, shooting, were too far removed from the actual incident to be considered.
"It is too remote in time and too open to multiple interpretations," Osborn said of Hasan's "Grand Rounds" presentation he made while at Walter Reed Military Medical Center. She made similar rulings to other presentations.
However, Internet searches and favorites from Hasan's web history closer to the crime will be allowed. That evidence will include web pages Hasan visited on the day of the mass shooting on post that left 13 dead.
The judge also ruled out any evidence that would frame the mass shooting as a "copycat" crime to former Army Sgt. Hasan Akbar's attack on soldiers in 2003 that killed two and wounded 14 in Kuwait.
Akbar is the last member of the Army to be sentenced to death.
The lead prosecutor in Hasan's case, Col. Mike Mulligan, also prosecuted that case.
Even though a guilty verdict seems all but assured, Osborn's ruling delivered a blow to the prosecution's efforts to prove the attack was premeditated. The jury needs to unanimously find Hasan preplanned a deliberate attack for the death penalty to remain on the table during sentencing.
Osborn's ruling comes as the prosecution is in its final stages of testimony, concluding all evidence to the facts of the case and moving into motive-related testimony on Monday. They expect to call about 15 more witnesses and could rest their case on Tuesday, according to Fort Hood public affairs.

Once they rest, Hasan will present his defense. How he will conduct himself remains a mystery.
