Attorney: Hasan Has More Restrictions
| The NYT thinks this is a problem as they regurgitate the attorney's press release. |
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- The Fort Hood mass shooting suspect's attorney says his client is treated more harshly than other soldiers suspected of crimes.
| The mass assault and multiple murder Major Hasan committed is a bit harsher than the usual single murder/rape/assault other soldiers who are arrested are suspected of committing. |
Attorney John Galligan says Maj. Nidal Hasan has excessive restrictions -- including a ban on visitors when his attorneys are in his hospital room. Galligan says he can't work on Hasan's case because he needs to meet with Hasan and one of his relatives at the same time.
| This is why legal pads were invented. |
Fort Hood officials didn't return calls seeking comment Thursday.
| "We don't have time to answer egregiously stupid questions. Call back when you have something intelligent to say. Thank you." |
Hasan is at a San Antonio military hospital, recovering from wounds that left him paralyzed. Hasan is charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder in the Nov. 5 shooting. He was shot by base police, authorities have said.
