美国国防部长皮特·赫格斯本周在一场采访中宣称,2009年胡德堡大规模枪击案13名遇难者的凶手将被“公开处决”。
“我们将确保民众能够观看处决过程,将其公开化,因为人们需要明白,此类行为将付出严重代价,”赫格斯周三在亚伯拉罕·林肯号航母上接受极右翼播客主持人杰克·波索比采克采访时说道。
一名五角大楼官员周四表示,此次处决“将进行直播”,但未透露更多细节。周四早些时候,五角大楼曾将有关处决宣传方式的问题转交陆军方面,但陆军未回应CNN的置评请求。
五角大楼周一晚间宣布,尼达尔·哈桑将被行刑队处决,该方案由赫格斯提议,已获唐纳德·特朗普总统批准。代理陆军部长亚当·特勒将哈桑的处决日期定为12月3日美国东部时间下午2点、中部时间下午1点,地点设在胡德堡。
赫格斯在采访中表示,处决将在“一个周四进行,时间定在下午1点,与他当年作案的时间一致,行刑队将由携带步枪的士兵组成”。
哈桑于2013年7月被判13项预谋谋杀罪和32项谋杀未遂罪。在庭审期间,他向由13名军官组成的陪审团表示,他的目标是即将部署到阿富汗、“将参与一场非法战争”的士兵。案发当日,他在胡德堡医疗处理中心向正在领取部署前体检证明的士兵开枪,随后尾随士兵逃至处理中心后门,与警方交火后最终被击伤。
此次行刑队处决将是美国陆军自第二次世界大战以来首次采用该方式执行死刑。赫格斯在采访中表示,他欣赏“二战时期我们秉持的心态——取胜。明白当敌人袭击你时,你要坚守阵地”。
对哈桑处决进行公开直播可能违反美军死刑监管条例。《陆军条例190-55》明确规定了可见证军事处决的人员范围,同时禁止未成年人观看处决过程。但陆军宪兵总监——负责监督军事执法的将军——有权豁免该条例的部分条款,前提是豁免行为不违反法律或更高层级的强制性条例。

Pete Hegseth vows to make first firing squad execution in decades ‘public’

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth vowed in an interview this week that the execution of the man who killed 13 people in a mass shooting at Fort Hood in 2009 would be “public.”
“We’ll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public, because people need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things,” Hegseth told far-right podcaster Jack Posobiec in an interview aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln on Wednesday.
A Pentagon official said Thursday that the execution “will be livestreamed,” but did not offer more details. Earlier on Thursday, the Pentagon had referred questions about how the execution would be publicized to the Army, who did not respond to questions from CNN.
The Pentagon announced on Monday evening that Nidal Hasan would be executed by firing squad, which Hegseth recommended and President Donald Trump approved. Acting Secretary of the Army Adam Telle set the date for Hasan’s execution on December 3 at 2pm ET, 1pm CT, at Fort Hood.
Hegseth said the execution would occur on “a Thursday, we’re going to do it at one o’clock, which is when he did it, and it’s going to be soldiers with rifles executing the firing squad.”
Hasan was convicted in July 2013 of 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted murder. During his trial, he told the panel of 13 officers that he was targeting soldiers who would deploy to Afghanistan and “were going to engage in an illegal war.” On the day of the shooting, he started at the medical processing center at Fort Hood, firing on troops there to collect medical checks before they deployed. He then followed soldiers out the back door of the processing center as they fled and was confronted by police, with whom Hasan exchanged gunfire and was eventually struck.
The execution by firing squad would be the first of its kind carried out by the US Army since World War II. Hegseth said in the interview that he liked “the mentality we had in World War II, which was win. Which was understand when the enemy attacks you, you stand your ground.”
A public livestream of Hasan’s execution could potentially violate the Army regulations governing military capital punishment. Army Regulation 190-55 specifies the types of people permitted to witness a military execution, and it also bars minors from watching the punishment. But the Army’s provost marshal general — a general who oversees military law enforcement — is permitted to waive provisions of the regulation so long as the waiver doesn’t violate the law or a higher binding regulation.
