CNN/Depressed teen's guns didn't raise red flags for host family of Florida shooter
Tehran (KNA) - The Florida couple who took in school shooter Nikolas Cruz knew the depressed 19-year-old owned multiple guns, but felt safe knowing the weapons were under lock and key.
James and Kimberly Snead told CNN's Alisyn Camerota on Monday that despite being depressed, the teen was doing really well in school, and that Cruz "was proud of what he was doing," sharing his grades with the family and working toward his high school diploma.
Kimberly Snead says Cruz had told their son two weeks ago that "he's the happiest" he had been in recent times.
The Sneads have been speaking to media along with their attorney Jim Lewis.James Snead says before Cruz moved in with them, he had seen him around the house on occasion because he was a friend of the couple's son."I'd met him a couple times before," he said, adding Cruz "stayed at the house with my son, spent the night." Snead remembers that Cruz was "very respectful then."
