Judge Orders Accused Fort Hood Shooter Hasan to be Shaved
KCEN-TV News ^ | September 5, 2012

Judge Gross has ordered Hasan to be shaved.

Hasan now has the chance to appeal with the Army Court of Criminal Appeals.

The judge also said no more pretrial hearings will be held until the issue is resolved.

------------------------------------

(KCEN) -- In the most recent pre-trial hearing in the case of accused Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Hasan, the accused was allowed to remain in the courtroom, despite him still not being clean-shaven.

In previous hearings, Hasan has been found in contempt, fined and removed from the court to watch proceedings via video because his beard violates Army standards.

So far today, he has been allowed to remain in the room.

Judge Gross has heard evidence as to whether Hasan's beard is a genuine expression of his Muslim faith or not.

The government is arguing that he is using the beard to try to disguise himself so that he cannot be recognized in court.

The defense disagrees, saying Hasan has already made it clear he wants to plead guilty to the charges so there is no reason for him to disguise himself.

Look, this shaving game has been going on a long time! If it wasn’t a Moslem being tried in military court, it would have been done a long time ago. Duh... the asylum of our era.

Nah. Too much effort.

Just burn the whole thing off at once.

The conspiritorialist in me wonders if the judge is trying to reduce the optics of this trial that would make it obvious to all that this was an act of terror. It's much easier to sell the “workplace violence” meme if the guy in the accused chair is clean shaven.

Muslim? What Muslim?

As long as this has been drawn out, I’d say use a C130 w/ cover and drop him out over Mecca with a couple of Texas feral hogs.

Give him the option of doing it himself or being held down by a half dozen brawny soldiers and let one of them do it. With a straight razor.
