A judge ordered the city of Orlando to release audio recordings of the Pulse nightclub gunman talking to police dispatchers and negotiators. But she won't rule on releasing other 911 calls until she has listened to them.
Circuit Judge Margaret Schreiber on Monday ordered that calls made by shooter Omar Mateen during the June massacre be made public immediately.
The city previously released a transcript of the calls.
But Schreiber says she can't make a decision on whether 232 other calls can be released until she has heard them.
