Trump Cancels Livestream of Nidal Hasan's Execution
President Donald Trump has decided to cancel the livestream of the execution of former US Army Major Nidal Hasan, overruling Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, who had announced that the execution would be publicly broadcast. Hasan was convicted for the 2009 Fort Hood massacre, which resulted in the deaths of 13 people and injuries to 32 others.
Trump stated that while broadcasting Hasan's execution could have served as a deterrent against terrorism, he opted against making it a public spectacle. The execution is still scheduled to take place by firing squad on December 3.
Family members of Hasan's victims will be permitted to witness the execution in person.
