Tuesday, May 25, 2010 – Daily News – 5B Legal battles brew over Fort Hood suspect's history WASHINGTON (MCT) — Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan is para- lyzed from the chest down. He waits in a small Texas county jail and has not been seen publicly in the six months since he was shot and charged with killing 13 people and wounding nearly three dozen others at the nearby Fort Hood Army post. He is about to surface again. Early next month military attor- neys will meet for a preliminary hearing on whether the 40-year-old Muslim who became an Army psychiatrist should be court-mar- tialed and perhaps sentenced to die for the Nov. 5 assault. But even before the gavel comes down, two legal battles are under way to try to force the Army and the Department of Justice to turn over documents dealing with Hasan's past, particularly his per- sonnel files, his mental health records and other documents that might suggest the government should have known he was a dan- gerously troubled soldier. The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Com- mittee has taken the unusual step of issuing subpoenas demanding the records as part of its investigation into the shooting spree. What they want to know, said committee Chairman Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., is "why was he not stopped before he took 13 American lives, and how can we prevent such a tragedy from happening again?" At the same time, Hasan's defense attorney, John P. Galligan, a retired Army colonel from Bel- ton, Texas, said he has been deprived of the records despite repeated requests. Without the material, he said, it will be very dif- ficult to defend Hasan at the hear- ing. Another key issue is whether FBI and Pentagon investigators failed to follow through on infor- mation from U.S. intelligence sources about Hasan's reported contacts with Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S.-born, Yemen-based Islamic cleric with suspected ties to al- Qaida. That kind of relationship could help Galligan prove that the Army and the FBI dropped the ball in not warning that Hasan was a danger and mentally unfit to con- tinue serving in the military. It would also help Galligan mount an insanity defense. "They want to sit around and portray Hasan as a self-radicalized jihadist because of his contacts with Awlaki, and yet I can't get this information," Galligan said. "Does it make sense to go to the hearing without the FBI reports or evidence about my client's mental state?" According to witnesses, Hasan opened fire after shouting, "Allahu akbar!" — Arabic for "God is great" — inside the Fort Hood base's Soldier Readiness Center. Outside, he encountered gunfire by GRADUATION 2010 A special page featuring this year’s graduates! From kindergarten to college. Congratulate your special graduate!

Instead, he was charged with 13 counts of premed- itated murder and 32 counts of pre- meditated attempted murder. Top attorneys for the Justice Department and the Pentagon wrote the Senate committee last month that they had already turned over nearly 1,000 pages of docu- ments and held briefings with Sen- ate staff members to cooperate with the panel's investigation. To go further, they said, especially in identifying government officials who could be called to testify, would jeopardize the criminal case. "We believe we have moved this dialogue significantly in your direction," attorneys William J. Lynn III and Gary G. Grindler wrote to the committee. "We do not believe we can go beyond this point without incurring significant risk to the successful prosecution of Major Hasan." The committee, in issuing the subpoenas, noted that if al-Awlaki is considered dangerous enough that the Obama administration has reportedly authorized the CIA to capture or kill him, then everyone he has been in contact with should have been thoroughly vetted — all the more so if one was an Army major. "I can't wait to join you" in the afterlife, Hasan once reportedly e- Legal Notices Legal Notices LEGAL NOTICE BOX SHOWN IS ACTUAL SIZE (1 COL.

After the shootings, al-Awlaki reportedly praised Hasan as a "hero" and a "man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against its own people." In a video posted to an al-Qaida-affiliated website Sunday, al-Awlaki called for the killing of U.S. civilians. Two outside experts offered differing opinions on the standoff over government records.
