Excerpt:
A judge says an Army psychiatrist charged in the deadly 2009 Fort Hood shooting rampage is mentally OK to represent himself at his upcoming murder trial.
However, presiding judge Col. Tara Osborn said Maj. Nidal Hasan will require a physical examination before he would be approved to defend himself during the trial.
The exam and medical report are to be completed by May 31, after which another hearing will be held on this matter June 3.
