UK Independent "The family who took the Florida school shooting suspect into their home after his mother died have labelled him a “monster”.
"Kimberley and James Snead said Nikolas Cruz was lonely and depressed, but they saw no warning signs.
. . . "We had this monster living under our roof and we didn't know, "Ms Snead told the South Florida Sun Sentinel. "We didn't see this side of him."
"Mr Snead added: “Everything everybody seems to know, we didn’t know. It’s as simple as that.”
"Mr Cruz went to live with the Snead family after his adopted mother died of pneumonia last November.

"Their son asked whether he could join them in the family home.
"As well as providing him with a roof over his head, they registered him in adult education classes and helped him get a job at a local pound shop.
"They were forced to teach him basic chores such as how to cook, use the microwave, wash his clothes and tidy up after himself.
" 'He was very naive. He wasn't dumb, just naive," Mr Snead, an army veteran, said. "I told him there’d be rules and he followed every rule to the T."
"The parents said they were alright with the teenager storing guns in the house as they long as they were kept in a gun safe. They told Mr Cruz he had to ask permission before taking out the guns." . . .
"Mr Snead told the paper he thought he was the only person who possessed a key to the safe, but he now thinks Mr Cruz kept a key for himself." . . .
