Sources: Carnage Could Have Been Far Worse In Florida School Massacre

PARKLAND (CBSMiami) – CBS4 News has obtained new information in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre which left 17 people dead.

An official briefed on the shooting investigation tells CBS4 News that the carnage could have been far worse.

Investigators believe self-confessed gunman Nikolas Cruz had planned on using a vantage point on the third-floor stairwell on the west side of the building to shoot at students as they fled the building.

So what stopped him?   It certainly wasn't the cops coming inside.

Looks like Cruz was trying to copy the Las Vegas shooter's tactic of firing indiscriminately at a crowd from a high vantage point.

Also interesting is this:

Quote
The fact that the gun may have jammed while he was changing clips is one of the reasons why Senator Marco Rubio announced during the CNN Town Hall in Parkland last week that he is now willing to consider banning high capacity magazines.

“I believe that there will be evidence that at a key moment in this incident three or four people, three or four people, might be alive today because of something this deranged killer did, had to do,” said Rubio at the Town Hall.

Rubio has to go.   First amnesty and now he's supporting this.

There was also this odd aspect of the shooter’s supplies left at the scene....

Florida school shooting suspect Nikolas Cruz had swastikas ammunition magazines he brought into Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14, a federal law enforcement source with direct knowledge of the investigation told CBS News on Tuesday. Cruz has been charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder.

"Cruz had swastikas ammunition magazines"  What does that mean?  He had drawn swastikas on his magazines?  Or, is that a special type of magazine?

@Sanguine
You can buy 'skins' for magazine.  Simply a colorful plastic sleeve which you put on the magazine.  https://www.gunskins.com/products/ar-15-mag-skin

However I've never seen them with swastikas so I'm betting he had drawn this himself.

So he’s in a 3-story building chock full of defenseless students and teachers, so his plan was to set up a sniper’s nest to shoot at people OUTSIDE?

They’ve clearly gone off script and are just making things up as they go along.

I am.  Pennsylvania's Supreme Court has unconstitutionally injected itself into the realm of the legislature by forcing re-districting ahead of the 2018 elections.   It is clearly a political ploy related to the Trump resistance.  And it may well cost Republicans three or more seats.
