A federal judge has dismissed a multi-million-dollar lawsuit seeking to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for a murderous rampage by a Royal Saudi Air Force officer at the Pensacola Naval Air Station nearly five years ago.

Three U.S. Navy servicemen – Cameron S. Walters, Joshua K. Watson and Mohammed Haitham – were shot to death and four others were severely injured in the Dec. 6, 2019 attack, as were a Navy civil servant, seven Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies and a member of the Department of Defense Police Force. Other first responders suffered less severe injuries.
