AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee Nikolas Cruz, the 19-year-old suspected of killing 17  in a shooting spree at Florida high school, legally purchased the AR-15 he allegedly used in the crime. Florida wouldn't require fingerprints, a special permit, or even a waiting period before Cruz bought his gun. Anyone over 18 can buy a rifle in Florida if they pass a background check. At 19 with no criminal background — despite Cruz's disciplinary record at school — all he needed was a few hundred dollars to buy the rifle.
