FORT HOOD, TX — After being convicted and sent to death row for the murder of 13 soldiers, the death sentence of former Army Maj. Nidal Hasan has been delayed indefinitely due to problems with checking out of supply, sources confirmed today.
Before he can be moved to Fort Leavenworth's Death Row, Hasan still needs to turn in all of his gear to the Central Issue Facility (CIF), an arduous process that some believe could take years.
"This really is not something that we had planned for," said Lt. Col. Neil Hayes, who prosecuted the Hasan case. "We knew the mandatory appeals process would delay his sentence being carried out, but the supply system threatens to derail the process entirely."
