[00:00.00] The United States army
[00:02.21] has formally charged the military officer
[00:04.14] accused of carrying out last week's mass shooting
[00:06.44] at the Fort Hood military base in Texas.
[00:08.93] The officer, Major Nidal Malik Hasan,
[00:11.54] an army psychiatrist,
[00:13.03] has been under armed guard in a hospital
[00:14.90] since being wounded in the shooting.
[00:16.76] Mathew Prize reports from New York.
[00:18.57] There are still many questions
[00:20.75] surrounding the mass shooting
[00:22.36] at the America's largest military base,
[00:24.29] but one of them has now been answered.
[00:26.41] Major Nidal Hasan, an army psychiatrist
[00:29.14] who was due to be deployed to Afghanistan,
[00:31.38] has been charged with 13 counts of murder.
[00:34.49] That could rise
[00:36.17] if prosecutors decide also to charge him
[00:38.16] with the murder of an unborn child
[00:40.09] being carried by one of his victims.
[00:42.39] He will be prosecuted in a military court.
[00:45.13] If convicted, he could face the death penalty,
[00:48.30] although no one has actually been executed
[00:50.60] under the US military justice system for almost 50 years.
