- Samantha Fuentes, a former student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, testified about the injuries she suffered at the hands of Nikolas Cruz, who faces a possible death sentence for the mass shooting that killed 17 people at the Parkland school. Fuentes told jurors that she was hit with shrapnel throughout her body and still has multiple pieces inside including one behind her eye. Fuentes said she was covered in blood when she left the classroom after the shooting was over.

I cannot believe that there are people more worried about her attire and even body rather than the absolute horror she endured. People are disgusting.
@@DJ-769 um to comment solely on her appearance tells me that's what's most concerning. I would not call that wrong, I'd call it a logical conclusion. What she's wearing literally does not matter. The point is she's a SURVIVOR who is facing her attacker. We should be concerned with the absolute horror she faced not what she looks like.
They aren’t getting laid , there miserable 😭
@@DJ-769 yes I'm sure the jury has thrown out her testimony because of those shoulders
@@DJ-769 She doesn't need to persuade the jury anything. You don't need to dress nice for court when your future isn't on the line.
@@DJ-769 victims are allowed to wear what they want. Watch any video with someone giving a victim statement and they are in casual clothing. You only need to dress up if you are a lawyer or on trial. She should be as comfortable as she wants to be while reliving being shot and seeing dead classmates.
The way he looks down and doesn't face what he did is disgusting. If you did that, face what you did,, don't be a coward. This is how I know he would do the same thing today.
His attorneys need to tell him to sit up and NOT cover his ears/face!
Only a coward would do that.
He doesn’t care. Doesn’t have one bit of remorse or empathy
If that's how you feel, imagine what the jury is thinking. Let him keep doing what he's doing. It's hurting his case.
This also might be a tactic though, because cold blooded psychos will just look at what they caused dead in the eyes and even smirk. But this guy either sells the story that he feels tremendous heart-burning gut-wrenching guilt, or he really does feel so guilty he cannot even look up bcs it would break him. So this actually lowkey helps his case.
A very nice young woman. Very calm, clear and articulate. Utterly horrible what happened to her.
@SKIPPER CANNON I agree, grow up.
& very big
Yeah, going from the girl who asked Nick What college he was going to, having a mental breakdown over it, to this, is refreshing.
Im surprise they let her dress like that
@@derekstaroba “Let her dress like that?” If the court didn’t have a problem with how she is dressed why do you?
Some of these comments are absolutely vile. Who cares what she's wearing, how much she weighs or anything else for that matter. She witnessed and experienced horrific evil and the fact she's up there describing it shows a mental strength most of us could only dream of.
Samantha, you'll probably never read this but I hope you find the peace you deserve. ❤
You can always count on people to be mean in this world for no reason. Absolutely sad and pathetic how brave people are behind a screen but wouldn’t walk up to her and randomly say such nasty things.
It's court DRESS APPROPRIATELY
I agree. People sicken me. Some of these comments are so far beyond unnecessary and sickening it is just unbelievable
Lot of ignorant people on line. Don't let it bother you hon.
@@lvvv812 none of your business how she dressed.
He shouldn't be allowed to not look at these people. He chose to harm and kill people so he should be forced to deal with the consequence of having to listen to their heart breaking stories and how he changed people's lives forever. He's a monster
He's going to spend the rest of his life in prison, which can be 50-60 years. He's definitely facing the consequences!
@@christopher399 If he don't get death, he is probably going to get a life sentence for each kill without parole and additional years. He is probably going to die behind bars.
@@christopher399 and yet, that doesn't seem like enough
@@christopher399 that, and I honestly hope he also is fearing for his life right now, even if he doesn't get executed. He really deserves to live every second of his life in solitary confinement.
@@alexramirez9589 Just think about what it means... Most 19 year olds have their futures ahead of them, with most milestones still left to achieve. When Cruz was 19, he had to live with the fact that his entire world was going to be within prison walls, and that the biggest home he'll ever have is a prison cell. He had to live with the knowledge that he would never have much freedom, that his life barely has any opportunities. Imagine waking up in a prison cell, knowing it's the first day of 20 000+ days just like that.
He's going to adapt and make a life for himself, but it's never going to be great. It's going to be about making the best out of a terrible situation. I definitely don't envy him. I've heard people talking about free meals, a bed etc... But at what cost? At some point, freedom will seen like a distant memory or dream. It's this thing you want, but you can never have.
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Samantha at an event here in Colorado last summer. She is one of the sweetest, strongest, and well spoken young people I have ever met. Sending love.

Up to this Judge to COMMAND AN ORDER THAT HE SITS UPRIGHT !! ... I note that this Judge's plaque states Judge Scherer.... I HAVE SEEN OTHER JUDGES PLAQUES WHERE THE NAME IS : HONOURABLE JUDGE XXXX . I believe this one has NOT ATTAINED THE YEARS OF EXPERIENCE TO ATTAIN THE HONOURABLE.

It infuriated me how he closed his ear with his fingers when they were playing the audio. I wish the judge made him takes his fingers out and listen to his actions.
How come the victims don’t tell the shooter to sit up? How disrespectful to them

I respect the judge for being gentle with the students. There are some judges who have no empathy/kindness and are just harsh all around.
You can tell, as he’s too afraid to face his victims that he knows the amount of damage he has done. I had no idea they had reserved the crime scene for the last 4 years. I hope the jurors go in and see every last remnant that was left behind in that chaos and unthinkable tragedy. May give them the final go in deciding if he lives or not.
He doesn't care. It's an act.
He's PRETENDING to care which I don't know if that's even more evil or not ....
ur joking right. HE DOESNT give a flying f**k!!
"I looked down on my dead friends"
this poor young woman
It's amazing the degree of emotion all those who are testifying have about something that happened FOUR YEARS AGO. That in and of itself is enough to show how heinous this crime was. Certainly death penalty worthy. And for everyone to have to relive the horror of that day yet again. Absolutely awful.

@@Tarumarugan I am a Christian, God fearing woman, but I say, "Hang him High".

Such tasteless comments on here. Who cares what she is wearing… she went thru something so horrific and survived. Show a little deceny, this is someone’s daughter.
Seriously. This isn’t a fashion show. This is a truly traumatic experience for the survivors.
She is dressed just fine.
That someone should have told her to dress appropriately.
@@stephaniegoddard6935 wow, you must look like a mess.
It’s utterly disgusting. After all these children whom are now young adults have seen, dealt with and are still dealing with, what this young woman is wearing, is what someone would choose to comment on? What about her strength and resilience to get justice not only for her self but for the rest of the victims that passed that day and the multitude of students, faculty, families etc. that have had to attempt to move from this horrific tragedy. But let’s talk about her choice of outfit.
Disgusting.
Through all of this, Nicholas Cruz just sits there, writing on his tablet. I want to knock that pen right out of his hand. Hard!!
Right, he is not a child. The judge should tell him you need to look up.
@@Paola-jf2qf Amen!!
Show him a magic trick. Make that pen disappear...
I do too. You just want to slap him.
After a few victims came and told their horror at these events… I started asking my daughter more questions about her schools lock down and what she’s supposed to do and where she’s supposed to go, I don’t know what I was expecting but the emotion of hearing her talk so nonchalantly about this as if it’s a fire drill had me speechless. That’s how numb our children have had to get to deal with this. The thought of how many times she’s had to practice such a thing, absolutely breaks my heart and terrifies me. School should be one of the few places we can feel our children are 100% safe.
I’m a high school teacher. We had our lockdown drill today…on the 2nd day of school. Very depressing.
They need to give the teachers the ability to defend themselves and the students. That way they at least have a fighting chance and won't just be sitting ducks.
That's abgood job man. Keep it up..it's sad that we live in that world but as of now we do.
@@mememan2344 well what kind of defence should teachers have…steel reinforced locked doors locked at the beginning of periods is the best. But even then that costs “money” and isn’t paid for :/
@@jakeywakeyyy1493 I'm not sure really. People aren't really that comfortable with giving all the teachers guns, so maybe there are non lethals that will work. Sealable classrooms with escape hatches to the outside might work. As well as full hallway security cameras on a big TV in every classroom so every teacher can immediately see what's going on where.
Shes really brave for sharing her experience and she was great at speaking about what happened to her in detail

Crimes such as this one are why the death penalty exists.
People who commit crimes such as this one should go to hell. But the death penalty is still a mistake. It doesn't work as a deterrent, it does nothing to punish the perpetrator, it fosters a culture that devalues life, and mainly it allows executing innocent people who are falsely convicted. If you really want to punish someone who's committed a heinous crime, take away their freedom and humiliate them by leaving them behind. They can't stand it. The state should not be in the killing business, especially since it isn't foolproof.

I watched all the testimonies from the victims that day and she was the most coherent one. She explained everything in a clear and steady voice, step by step helping us visualize that day very vividly. I’m surprised she held her composure so well. She’s such a brave woman.
She is so brave and so articulate, I cannot imagine being shot let alone sitting next to two of her classmates/ friends who were dead and then having to wait four years and re-live it over again in front of the guy that shot her. I have so much respect for her, and the other survivors.
It's a shame that a high school student experienced a tragic event similar to what combat veterans experience. How is she able to get through college and years working with this kind of mental trauma and physical pain?

As an Australian I'm sorry for what you Americans have to go through all the time... Something is inherently wrong with your culture and laws.
Sadly you're right. And most of us agree. But a powerful lobby has Congress in a chokehold.
What cultural aspects or laws are you saying is inherently wrong? In my response below I'm assuming you're talking about our gun culture with the right to bear arms culture and the laws surrounding them but please feel free to elaborate on what you mean...
Murder, armed theft, rape and kidnapping happens in every country all over the world. The USA just has a unique gun culture and an unfortunate side effect of that, is the very rare occasion of a mass shooter. I don't like bringing up statistics in a school shooting but the probability of one is near zero and will never happen to 99.9999% of the kids in the USA. It's just highlighted because it gathers a lot of revenue for the media reporting on it. The benefits of an armed society far outweighs the negative. The amount of crimes that an armed population prevents far outweighs the acts of criminals.
@@TheFlyingZulu very rare occasion you had over 200 this year that's very very sad...

I’ve never see a school shooter’s trial being publicized so much as this.
Because most kill themselves. Are you new here?
Most school shooters of the past are dead, rarely do they make it to trial so I think it’s important for the victims families to get full justice!
Was gonna say the same thing as Sharon. School shooters usually kill themselves during the act. Cruz is one of the few who didn't. And since it was the largest school massacre in the US it's a big deal. He directly affected hundreds of lives if not thousands with the amount of injured and dead. So yeah... huge publicity.
its being publicized because of clowns like david hogg who wasnt even there btw and they just want to use it to push their anti-gun agenda. The only thing they do by covering it this much is cause imitators which is exactly what the media wants to push more content and further propagate their agenda

that's not how it works
I would make him look at the evidence pics of what he did…
@@teresaroman5259 he doesn't care
@@commandingsteel but "how it worked" in a medieval society where there was torture for nevermind crimes but often unfair allegations... I don't believe there was much doodling for the one on trial in those dreadful times. Facing the consequence of torture the criminal would give pause before he committed heinous acts. I'm not suggesting a return to those days just food for thought.
The government should give every student a bulletproof back pack if nothing else! The laws seem to still be torn between parties and nothing has been done at least give the kids a resource to defend themselves!
That is actually a very clever and easier to implement idea
@@keelyfletcher4782 Ya I know I can't stop thinking of it! It just came to me today out of the blue
What you say hurts my heart. I grew up free. No locked doors. Walked to and from school. And now this?? We are headed down the path to destruction. If we need to arm ourselves against ourselves, we are done.
@@bluengas1 excellent idea .
@@jmbrinck Ya I agree but being sad won't help we need to be firm and get these kids some type of protection
I’m sorry but I just have to say this. This title is exactly what the perpetrator would want. His name in every title, all over the media, just being thrown in when it doesn’t need to. Share the survivors names, the victims, or just say Parkland. The way his name was thrown in was so unnecessary and clearly just used for clicks.
Poor girl had to endure such an act of madness. Bet Cruz enjoys the testimony.
Free him and tay k
@@poopyanalbumhole rapper life in prison for murder
@@MrSliverguy you're slow
F@&$ Cruz. I’m in Texas and I’m glad we got Alex jones out of there.
So many more to go.
My 78 year old friend died in that winter storm.
@ᴀꜱᴜᴋᴀ ᴀꜱᴜᴋᴀ I think it was 55 just for the capital murder case idk tho
The hardest part about being in that courtroom would be to not smash his face into the desk
To everyone saying he probably feels bad, he probably doesn’t. He heard young girls screaming for their lives and still killed them. What makes you think he cares now?
Brave young woman. All the best to her! What a horrible nightmare to endure and have to relive.
Such brave kids! They experienced horrific traumatic event which they should have never experienced!
My goodness, bless her!
Bless your heart.. I don't understand how this kid lives with himself especially after hearing all of the testimonies from the victims. I would be pleading the for the death penalty and begging God for forgiveness.
He is loving every minute of it. He wanted to be famous for being the next school shooter, remember?
Such a brave and strong girl! ❤️
It makes my blood boil even more than it already is seeing that coward just doodling, no remorse and no respect. 😡
God bless this young lady, how horrible to have to live with this and having happened.
You know I just thought about how I have all these people paid for their injuries and been compensated I wonder? They deserve it.
I want to commend all of these Survivors, y'all are doing a great job, thank you for going after this excrement. So very brave. So very articulated. Love to all of them.
Well spoken young lady.
All these kids are brave to do this and tell their version of what happened in such detail.
Respect for this young woman. Very impressed by her. I feel so so so sorry for her, every that was injured in any way. But I feel really heartbroken thinking of the parents that lost their child and are sitting there and have to endure everything, knowing they never ever get their kid back.
Such horror. I really feel for them.
It’s making me furious the way Nicholas Cruz looks so nonchalant when these events are spoken of. If I was this judge I would stop court and order him to look, sit up straight, and listen!
3:55 gave me chills :(
Glad you ok
I am so proud of u! U should be so proud of yourself!!!! Continue on your positive journey! ❤️💜🧡💛💚💙
Her composure is incredible
Nikolas Cruz is probably coloring a book while this women is giving his testimony
cant blame him who wants to look at a beached whale
Brave lady! Facing her monster like that, good for her.
I hope the rest of her life is filled with only good things.
It's nuts...I'm literally the same age as most of these people and it's heartbreaking
Exactly. Hearing some of them graduate just a year after I did... It's horrifying.
What an oddly worded vid title lol
I agree….Why can’t they just say Shrapnel?
I love that he has to hear about everyone moving on with their lives and he is stuck for the rest of his life in a box.
When was the date of this recording? Because I remember her from some time ago.
The Prosecution has rested. I'm thinking it must have been bf the autopsy testimony
What a brave and articulate young woman. 💕
Well articulated and intelligent young lady! Strength to her.
This is so horrifying and scary. He killed but also really injured so many. He’s disgusting did they ever say why he did this, other then being crazy?
Based on the cellphone videos Cruz made he did it for attention and name recognition, and yeah anyone who goes to murder someone is crazy in some form.
He’s not crazy
He's not crazy, he knew full well what he was going to do and did do.
There's a number of reasons. He was an incel, a racist, and he felt like no one noticed him. I think he really felt disliked by girls and I think that's why he picked Valentines day. He lost both parents as well. It's no excuse though. I've lost my brother, both parents, and all of my grandparents. I would never do anything like this. He's certainly mentally unwell. I wouldn't say crazy but anyone capable of doing something like this is mentally unwell. However, it isn't excusable. The internet has websites that radicalize and encourage these young men to carry out these deeds. 4chan (now 8kun) is a huge problem for this. Incels go in droves over there talking about the violence and pain they'd like to inflict on people, mainly women. Bianca Devins was murdered by an incel who then uploaded the photo of her nearly decapitated head to social media. I was investigating 4chan right when this happened. The incels went crazy over it. They posted it all over 4chan, mocking her and saying she deserved it. They thought of her killer as a hero. The worst I saw was a post from a guy who printed that picture out, masturbated over it, ejaculated on it, took a picture of that and sent the picture to her mother on Facebook. He was on 4chan bragging about it and other incels were giving him a pat on the back for it. While I was researching 4chan, I also learned how many mass shooters are radicalized on there. You should research how many of these shooters also frequented 4chan. It's alarming. As I said before, it's now called 8kun and it is only accessible via the dark web. It's very easy to learn how to do that. These kids today have no issue doing so, I didn't while I've researched. We have a seriously sick society and these young men are very disturbed. They feel forgotten and invisible. They see other shooters plastered all over the news and on social media and they think if they're the next mass shooter, everyone will remember them. In their eyes, they're getting both vengeance and notoriety. If these guys didn't get as much attention as they do from these mass murders, there would be less of them. They want people to pay for not seeing them or for not being what they consider nice to them. They're usually outcasts and suffer with self esteem issues. They have no one to talk to about these things, they go online and get radicalized by other mentally unwell outcasts. It's a huge problem
Not crazy, just evil
