Yes! I have some doubt that he won't pay the full price for his crime.

just playin' devil's advocate here, but if Maj. Hasan's fate is already pre-determined, then what use are rights to him anyway?

It's not even close to the dog and pony show of a civilian trial. Not nearly all the bells and whistles. Pretty austere in fact.

A courts martial can turn into a dog-n-pony show just as quick as a civilian trial. Don't forget, Hasan has a civilian lawyer.

He probably thinks that he is going to go straight to Heaven and get his 72 virgins, but when he is finally executed, this is what he's going to see.:skull2:

Back to the point at hand: which rules would those be?

If he does get 72 virgins hopefully they will be something like this.
