Pulse nightclub victims sue Orlando, police for allegedly violating civil rights


It’s been nearly two years since a gunman took the lives of 49 people inside a nightclub in Orlando, Florida. On Thursday, more than 35 survivors and families of victims banded together to announce they have filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city, a security guard working at Pulse and the Orlando Police Department. On June 12, 2016, Omar Mateen walked into the Orlando nightclub and murdered 49 people, wounding 53 others, before he was killed by police. “The city of Orlando demonstrated deliberate indifference to these people by not training their officers,” attorney Wayne Pollack, who represents the victims, said. Noor Salman, Mateen’s wife, was found not guilty earlier this year of obstruction and providing material support to a terrorist organization.
