## Hegseth says Pentagon plans to livestream Fort Hood shooter's execution. Is that legal?
On Thursday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed reports that the U.S. military plans to livestream the Army firing squad execution of Nidal Malik Hasan, which is currently set for Dec. 3.
Hasan, a former Army psychiatrist, was sentenced to death in 2013 for a shooting rampage that left 13 people dead and 30 more injured at Fort Hood in Texas.
The unprecedented nature of the planned broadcast quickly triggered questions about its legality.
Reporter Laerke Christensen asked military law experts to weigh in.
