The parents of Gina Montalto, Jaime Guttenberg and Helena Ramsay sat in the courtroom as medical examiner Dr. Marlon Osbourne detailed the injuries he found on the autopsies. Gina Montalto was shot and killed at close range, Jaime Guttenberg was shot in the back and torso, and Helena Ramsay was killed with a gunshot to the head.

    As a parent, when your child is born, hearing the weight, height is a significant and joyful moment. For these parents to hear age, weight, height because someone murdered them just kills your heart.

      There is nothing chill about this. Unforutnately it is the job of a medical examiner to analyze and interpret the results of an autopsy. It's his job to be objective about his results especially in a court of law where the defense can draw on an pathologist to reivew the results and think differently. I can't imagine that this medical examiner went home and had a "good night" after this. It is a terrrible situation. But in this case his job is to be objective.

    My brother was killed in work related accident caused by negligence on his company's part. My family sat in a court room and herd the devastating consequences My beautiful brother sustained because of his careless company he was employed with. The court actually begged my mom and myself to please leave the room during this time due to the graphic pictures that were to be shown. I died with him that day. I pray that God will comfort all the families. This pain will never ever go away. They will someday just learn to survive with the pain. I am so truly heartbroken for the loss these families feel. Take comfort in knowing that at the moment of their deaths They were looking into the eyes of Jesus who was assuring them their suffering was over.

      Charity, I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother. In 2007 I lost my 23 year old son to suicide and you're so right when you say the pain will never go away, that you just learn to survive with it. It becomes a part of you and even on your happiest days, there's still that place in your heart that aches for the loss of someone you love so dearly. My daughter and I both had to learn how to accept it and live with it. My heart hurts so much for these parents, siblings and friends who have lost someone they loved and to hear how they were murdered by this monster. I hope and pray they have the faith 🙏 to know that God will help them learn to live with what has been done. Without my faith, I wouldn't have made it, as I'm sure your faith helps you and your family live through a pain that is beyond what words can express and that is always with you. God bless you and yours!

I pray the families do not die angry and bitter and that they find some forgiveness in their hearts. Forgiving isn’t just for the wrong doers sake. It’s for your own sake.

    I am a defense lawyer and ardent opponent of the death penalty, but I cry watching these videos. The anguish of the parents is palpable and so tragic. I am a parent of a high school freshmen girl and a senior boy. Their classroom buildings, and in particular the classroom doors with large vertical windows, are designed and laid out exactly like Parkland. I live in Arizona, home of the most lax gun laws in the country. Any 18 year old can walk into a local gun store and within 30 minutes walk out with as many AR 15s, semi automatic handguns, magazines for them, and as much ammo as they can afford to buy. It's insanity, and I worry about my kids' safety at their extremely nice and frankly well to do school every day, to the point I am considering removing them from the school until the classrooms are properly secured. The school district recently spent well over a million dollars installing a state of the turf football field. How about spending half that to secure the damn classrooms!

I’ve thought about this in depth and this is one of the major parts of the entire trial I really don’t think I could handle if I was in their shoes. As said previously I’m sure the parents knew all of this before the trial but to hear it again, this time with their murderer right in front of you is devastating. My brain keeps thinking “why is he alive and gets to sit here and listen to this when their children who were totally innocent can’t.” Nick doesn’t deserve to breathe the same air as these families.
    I’d like to think I would be as strong as these parents and do what I have to for justice for my child..but I don’t know if I could be in the courtroom for this part. The pain on the parent’s faces says it all for me. They’re suffering listening to this 😞 I cried through every single impact statement and the entirety of this video. These people are complete strangers to me and they don’t even know I exist, but if I could take their pain away I would in a heartbeat. NO ONE deserves this. No parent should lose their child in this way… Normally I’m a very vocal person and I like to talk, write, type, etc but this case has me at a loss for words. There is nothing any of us can do or say to help these families heal. They will never be able to escape the impact of the actions of this murderer. The impact statement of one of the victim’s sister said it perfectly when she said “there is no normal.” “there is no peace”.

      I doubt you'd be paying long. Some of those inmates are probably family members of some of the victims. In my eyes I don't see the death penalty as the most severe. I think it makes it too easy on them. Plus putting someone to death don't even happen till years later. You'd still be paying for his stay up until that point. I think the best option imo would be to put him in a locked room with the grieving parents and let them do as they'd like with him. Simply injecting him till he falls asleep just don't seem severe enough to me. I'm just thinking If I were the parents I would want him to suffer more than just falling asleep. I give these parents mad props handling themselves in the court room tho. I don't know if I could handle even being in the same room as him and not letting my emotions get the better of me. I pray I never have to find out. In cases like this bringing hanging back would be appropriate.

Court how the them poor children died so heart breaking the parents of the deceased have to listen of the way their children died Nickolas. Cruz. Showing no remorse. Just sitting there with he’s hand in he’s head no remorse same he didn’t get the death penalty it life with out parole hope when he goes to prison the in mates don’t like it when a Child is murdered and they give him a good beating. You can see how the poor parents are crying. When the judge was giving the. Sentence Cruz didn’t care don’t know why he had 5. Lawyers not one gave evedince. REST. INTERNAL. Peace Sweet Angels 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

    The only way I made it through this was reminding myself as hard as it was for me it was infinitely worse for those families and friends

    I use to type these reports for our county pathologists/coroners. As a parent, I can’t imagine listening to such details! These reports are very detailed! Knowing what I know, one describes being shot through the heart!

    I do not understand why court rooms must make victim's parent's sit and listen to brutal ways in which they're babies were savagely murdered by a monster. How does hearing this change any part of what he did to all of these poor innocent babies, sittin there quietly listening would be out of my abilities. If i heard these depictions of how my baby was murdered i wouldn't be sitting there long before i would lose my mind. Also they knew he murdered them and so ill never understand what explaining all of their wounds that caused their deaths would not matter as much to me as the fact that no matter in what way they we're killed they'll never see their babies again or be able to watch them graduate high or get married have children. Their futures stolen from them because this sicko had a vendetta against his past and decided to take it out on innocent children who had not a thing to do with his past . He is a mental psychotic madman and deserves to endure years of constant reminding of what he has done. I was bullied in school, nearly tortured and i still couldn't imagine even having the thought of hurting another human being for any reason. He has destroyed so many lives and he will never know exactly how he changed all their lives. God be with these precious families. My thoughts and prayers are with them all. 🙏 ❤

    Totally inappropriate to zoom in the father of a victim, multiple extended times, while a pathologist details for the court what damage the killers bullets did to his daughter. But hey, it's Fox, no shame.
