Nidal Hasan's Beard Finally Shaved Forcibly By Army

AP reports today that Major Nidal Hasan who was convicted and sentenced to death for killing 13 and wounding 30 in a 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood has had his beard forcibly shaved in the military detention barracks at Fort Leavenworth where he is on death row.  After extensive litigation, Hasan, a Muslim, was allowed to keep the beard he had grown for religious reasons during his trial. (See prior posting.)  Fort Leavenworth officials previously said that Hasan would be subject to military grooming regulations there. [Thanks to Scott Mange for the lead.]
