'You stole him from us': Parkland victim Chris Hixon's family addresses Nikolas Cruz in sentencing



The wife, sister, and son of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School athletic director Chris Hixon, a Navy veteran who died trying to stop the 2018 Parkland shooting, walked up to the podium one by one to address Nikolas Cruz directly for the first time – something none of the victims’ families were not allowed to do during the trial.

“You are unfortunately living proof that evil does exist in this world,” Hixon’s son, Thomas, said. “You are going to be relegated to a name on a tombstone that no one ever visits.”

  1. no…i do not believe everyone deserves a defense or a lawyer. Depends on what crime youve committed. This guy deserved no defense, he should of got 17 different public tortures for each victim he killed. To broadcast to the next young shooter that not only is this type of behaviour not tolerated in society, but you will not have a quick easy painless death, that it will be miserable, last a month and bo so tortuous the victim will wish he never did what he did. This heinous murdering kid looks like he just had a coffee and a relaxed afternoon………….

  3. The Death Penalty in America is a damn joke , people are sentenced to die but they live 17 years or more waiting there execution? The courts need a wood chipper and throw Nicholas Cruz’s ass and all murderers in it the day of conviction , if it’s not self defense get in the damn Wood chipper 😂 JESUCRISTO ✝️ BENDIGA TODO VÍCTIMAS Y FAMILIAS Y AMIGOS PARA SIEMPRE AMÉN 🙏 AMÉN 🙏✝️💚😇

  4. I was about to look for further information on this case as I'm not American and don't live in the USA, but I won't.
    I will stay with these statments of the family victims, because the victims and their families are those to be remembered, this crimiminal, this sicko has to have his name erased from the face of Earth.
