- A jury spared the 24-year-old from the death penalty last month, instead handing down a recommendation of life in prison without the possibility of parole for the 2018 Valentine’s Day massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that killed 14 students and three staff members.
- Survivors of the shooting and victims’ loved ones had the chance to deliver impact statements before the sentence was formally announced.
- With so many wishing to be heard, the sentencing is expected to take place Wednesday, according to the Broward State Attorney’s Office.
