Now, as you know, Wolf, Nikolas Cruz had confessed to arming himself with an A.R.-15 rifle and gunning down 17 people. We had heard that he had injured 16 others.

For the past few days, witnesses have been going in and out of this courthouse through back doors. We have seen very few people actually go inside the courtroom, Wolf. Today, we did speak to Jim Lewis, the family of the Snead family, who allowed Nikolas Cruz inside their home after his mother died. But, Wolf, again, breaking news from Ft.
