PARKLAND, FLA. (WSVN) - The parents of a Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student who was killed in the 2018 mass shooting are now the second Parkland family to file a lawsuit against the FBI.
In the lawsuit filed Friday, the parents of Carmen Schentrup claim the federal agency mishandled tips relating to confessed shooter Nikolas Cruz leading up to the Feb. 14 massacre.
Philip and April Schentrup are seeking unspecified damages for the wrongful death of their daughter.
Carmen was a senior at Stoneman Douglas when she and 16 other students and faculty were killed. Her parents claim her life was taken due to the FBI neglecting to do their job.
Sunday night, a spokesperson for the FBI told 7News they cannot comment on pending litigation.
