'Burn in hell.' Parkland shooting victims' families addressed shooter Nikolas Cruz during a sentencing hearing in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Remembering victims of shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School
Cruz shot Hixon as he confronted him on the first floor of the freshman building, then circled back and shot him again once Hixon crawled into an alcove in the hallway for cover. Teacher Stacey Lippel has a scar on her arm and the memory of the gunman aiming at her that day. She's a different person now, she said. Broken and altered, fearful, damaged, guilted, sad.Lippel held her classroom door open and shepherded students inside while the gunman fired at them from the end of the hall. The judge thanked her before she stepped away from the podium.
Jurors showed more compassion to the gunman than he did her son, Joaquin's mother said. She was the first to address the gunman's team of public defenders, who she said exhibited"shameful, despicable behavior." Cruz fired 139 rounds of ammunition, Petty said, in his rampage. That's 138 chances after his first bullet to stop, she said.
