Breaking: Sandy Hook Families, Gun Manufacturer Remington Reach $73 Million Settlement

The families of nine victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook shooting that saw 20 children and six teacher murdered at an elementary school in Connecticut have reached a settlement with gun manufacturer Remington.

The perpetrator used a Bushmaster AR-15-style rifle made by Remington — which the families argued should have never been available on the public market — to carry out the shooting. Remington had previously proposed a $33 million settlement, but a lawyer for the victims’ families stated that they ultimately agreed to $73 million.
