EP. 249 - FLORIDA: THE PULSE MASSACRE, PART TWO: THE ENDLESS NIGHT.
6/12/20261 hr 56 min
It was just after 2 am. Over 200 people were enjoying the freedom that Pulse, an LGBTQ nightclub, offered. They were dancing. Connecting. Singing. Embracing the beauty of being alive and being understood. But in an instant, the night changed entirely. Within just a few minutes, dozens would be dead. And over the next few hours, those who did survive would be forced to fight for their lives as they were held captive by a shooter. In part 2 of our 4-part series, we will take you minute by minute through the shooting – looking at every victim, and countless survivors, as they tried to make it through the endless night.
