Legal path seems narrow to challenge livestream of Fort Hood shooter’s execution, experts say
Experts believe any legal challenge to the Trump administration's decision to livestream the firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan may be limited. The man set to receive the death sentence for killing 13 people at the Texas military base in 2009 could potentially be the only one with standing to argue against the streaming plan.
Experts say there doesn't appear to be a viable legal route for opposing the livestream by anyone other than Hasan, who hasn't indicated whether he'll attempt to stop anything related to his Dec. 3 execution.
