BREAKING: Former school security officer Scot Peterson has been found not guilty on all counts in trial over failure to confront the gunman who killed 17 people in Parkland, Florida, in 2018.
The charges carried a maximum potential sentence of 96½ years in state prison, the Broward County State Attorney’s Office said., and another 17 were injured.
He was taken into custody in Broward County after a 15-month investigation that showed he “refused to investigate the source of the gunshots, retreated during the active shooting while victims were being shot and directed other law enforcement who arrived on scene to remain 500 feet away from the building,” according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
“There can be no excuse for his complete inaction and no question that his inaction cost lives,” Swearingen added.
