1. Nikolas Cruz sitting in court
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Tony Montalto, Father of victim Gina Montalto:
"The misguided jury thought prisoner 0893407 was failed by society. To be clear, the system, schools, mental health professionals, law enforcement and now the justice system failed my daughter, Gina, her classmates and her teachers, which he chose to murder."
3. Cruz sitting in court
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Meghan Petty, Sister of victim Alaina Petty:
"I believe that one who robs another human being, let alone 17 of them, of their power over their own life and the right to live out their natural lives getting to keep both of those privileges is not an example of justice."
5. Wide of Cruz sitting in attorneys
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Ellyn Mayor, Mother of victim Samantha Mayor:
"I feel devastated. Justice has not been served. Now we all have to breathe the same air of someone who wanted us to never take another breath."
7. Cruz sitting in court
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Max Schachter, Father of victim Alex Schachter:
"Today is my birthday. Just know, I want you to know that every November 1st, I will be celebrating my birthday while you are in prison. And every November 1st, I will be blowing out my birthday candles. And you know what my wish will be? That you suffer a painful, painful, violent death."

STORYLINE:
Families of the 17 children and staff members Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz murdered have concluded their first day of confronting him in court.
They variously wished him a painful death and called him a coward Tuesday as they got their chance to address him directly before he is formally sentenced to life in prison.
Some of the families and 17 also wounded at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine's Day 2018 decried that the jury did not sentence Cruz to death.
The 24-year-old Cruz stared back at them from behind a COVID-19 face mask and showed no emotion.
