Family calls suspects actions deplorable

WASHINGTON (AP) - The family of the suspected Fort Hood shooter says “the actions of their cousin are despicable and deplorable.“
    Kim Fuller, a spokeswoman for Nidal Malik Hasan’s family says relatives in Northern Virginia are reaching out to law enforcement Friday to offer insight. Authorities have said Hasan is suspected in Thursday’s mass killings at Fort Hood military base in Texas.
    Hasan’s family said in a statement Friday that his actions don’t reflect how they were raised in the U.S. Military officials are still trying to piece together what may have pushed the 39-year-old Army psychiatrist, trained to help soldiers in distress, to turn on his comrades.
