Breaking: Former Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School resource officer Scot Peterson found not guilty on all counts. Watch live:

Families of the Parkland victims were seen shaking their heads in disbelief. and doing nothing as 17 people, including 14 students, were gunned down during the deadliest high school shooting in US history.

The charges against Peterson reflect the deaths and injuries of eight students - seven of them minors - and two school employees on the third floor of the 1200 building: Teacher Scott Beigel and students Cara Loughran, Meadow Pollack, Joaquin Oliver, Jaime Guttenberg, and Peter Wang all were killed, while teacher Stacey Lippel and students Kyle Laman, Marian Kabachenko and Anthony Borges were wounded and survived.

Peterson is accused of failing to confront the gunman and, instead, taking cover for more than 45 minutes outside the school's three-story 1200 building before the gunman was apprehended. Peterson"left behind an unrestricted killer to spend the next 4 minutes and 15 seconds wandering the halls at his leisure," Assistant State Attorney Kristen Gomes said in closing arguments Monday."Because when Scot Peterson ran, he left children trapped inside of the building with a predator unchecked." who testified they could not narrow down where the deadly shots originated.
