Scot Peterson, 56, who was taken into custody, faces seven counts of child neglect, three counts of culpable negligence and one count of perjury, Broward County State Attorney Mike Satz said in a statement. A 27-minute surveillance video released a month after the massacre showed Peterson, who was assigned to the Parkland, Florida, high school, stayed outside the building during the shooting, according to the sheriff’s office.
Peterson’s arrest follows a 14-month investigation into law enforcement’s response during the shooting. If convicted on all of the charges, Peterson faces 96 years in state prison.
