"YES!!! Texas can still bring charges, especially for #14 the baby! Texas of course has the death penalty." Texas, if given the opportunity by the military, could only bring charges against Hasan that weren't tried in the military court. Contrary to popular belief, double jeopardize does attach to military prosecutions.
