Florida Governor Calls For Grand Jury Investigation Into Parkland School Shooting

Description

According to a report by Reuters, on Wednesday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis called for a state grand jury to investigate the 2018 school massacre in Parkland which claimed the lives of 17 people, pledging accountability for any local failures that led to the deadliest US high school shooting. DeSantis reportedly petitioned the Florida Supreme Court for the investigation one day before the first anniversary of the Valentine's Day massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. While flanked by parents of the slain, DeSantis said at a new conference, "They are going to have the power - subpoena and otherwise - to get to the facts and get to the truth."
