Jury selection to begin in trial of former deputy accused of failing to confront Parkland shooter
"Jury selection is expected to begin today in the trial of a former Florida sheriff's deputy, who is accused of failing to confront a school shooter. Former Broward county deputy Scott Peterson is charged with 7 counts of felony child neglect, prosecutors Sagan February 14th, 2018, shooter Nicholas Cruz first killed 11 people and wounded 13 on the school building's first floor before Peterson arrived at the scene, but that once Peterson was there he could have stopped crews from running up to the building's third floor and killing another four students and wounding three. Instead prosecutors say Peterson remained outside marjory Stoneman Douglas high school with his gun drawn, and then backed away as gunfire sounded. Peterson says he thought the shots were coming from outside the building, perhaps from a sniper, and Peterson's attorney argues that under Florida law his client had no legal obligation to enter the building and confront the gunman.
