The school where a teenage gunman killed 17 of his classmates and injured 17 others is finally being demolished six years later. Tragedy struck the community of Parkland, Florida when a student armed with an AR15 rifle opened fire on his defenseless classmates. The crime scene was preserved for a jury walkthrough during the shooter’s sentencing trial. Law&Crime’s Sierra Gillespie takes a look back at the powerful victim impact statements from the families of the victims.

The 19yearold shooter was a former student of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. After opening fire on students and staff, the gunman fled the school by blending in with other students running for their lives. The incident is the deadliest mass shooting at a high school in U.S. history. The gunman was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole after a lengthy sentencing trial.
