Florida judge allows reenactment of Parkland shooting in lawsuit against former school officer

A Florida judge approved a motion Wednesday allowing two reenactments of the 2018 school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School as part of a civil lawsuit against a former school resource officer. Scot Peterson was acquitted last month of criminal charges accusing him of inaction and negligence during the shooting; 26 survivors and families of the 17 killed are seeking unspecified damages from him in civil court. Attorneys for both the plaintiffs and the defense will stage the reenactments within the next month.
