BROWN The Associated Press

FORT HOOD, Texas — Dozens of people will take the wit- ness stand in a military courtroom over the next few weeks to describe the pain of bullets piercing their bodies and the sight of fellow soldiers lying in pools of blood. But this hearing is not about an attack in Iraq or Afghanistan. It’s a key step in the case against an Army psychiatrist accused of gunning down more than 40 fellow service members and civilian workers last year in a rampage at Fort Hood. An Article 32 hearing occurs only in military court and is held to determine whether there is enough evidence to proceed with a trial. Prosecutors and the defense can call witnesses and both sides are able to question them and present other evidence. When the hearing begins today, Maj. Nidal Hasan will be sitting just a few feet from the witnesses. A military officer later will determine whether Hasan should be tried on 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted Photo submitted premeditated murder. The hearing is expected to last at least three weeks and will Jefferson Football Mini Cheer Camp sees record attendance include plenty of testimony from survivors about the graphic On Friday, the Jefferson Cheerleaders held the annual Football Mini Cheer camp for girls in grades K-6.
