Death penalty won’t be sought in Florida airport shooting 1 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy the Associated PressAn Alaska man will not face the death penalty on charges of killing five people and wounding six in a shooting rampage at a Florida airport, authorities announced Tuesday. In the federal system, all prosecutions in which the death penalty is a possibility must be approved by the attorney general. “The attorney general has given us the authority not to seek the death penalty,” Del Toro said. His gun, which had been confiscated by police during that time, was returned to him and was used a few weeks later in the Florida shooting.
