Statement Regarding Hearing on Petition to Court on CEN Report
August 15, 2018
Attorneys for the School Board appeared in court today, Wednesday, August 15, 2018, with respect to the release of the Collaborative Educational Network (CEN) report on Nikolas Cruz. The attorneys made it clear that it was their intent to put the judges on notice of the fact that the confidential information had been disseminated to the public in violation of their orders that the information should remain redacted. In filing the petition, it was never the School Board’s intent to pursue contempt proceedings against the Sun-Sentinel or the individual reporters, as such matters are more properly handled by the judges presiding over the litigation.
