Parkland Shooting

Prosecutors in the case of Florida school shooter Nikolas Cruz are calling for an investigation after a juror said she felt threatened by another member of the jury during deliberations.

Minutes after Nikolas Cruz was spared the death penalty, family members whose loved ones were violently taken from them at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School said the justice system had failed them. Local and state officials also expressed their disappointment.

Fourteen students and three staff members were killed in the rampage at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine's Day in 2018. Cruz, 24, pleaded guilty last year to first-degree murder.

In the last phase of the death penalty trial for Nikolas Cruz, lawyers gave their final remarks on what should happen to the shooter. It is now on the jury to decide his fate.

The defense team for Nikolas Cruz filed their request to remove Judge Elizabeth Scherer last Friday after she called them "unprofessional."

The death penalty trial for the Parkland shooting trial resumed this week after a two-week break and Nikolas Cruz's lawyers have continued to take jurors through his life chronologically as they seek to prove his difficult childhood contributed to the violence.

Defense lawyers for the Parkland school shooter rested their case Wednesday, a move that came as a surprise — especially to the judge.

The superintendent of Broward County Public Schools didn't join the district until months after a grand jury finished its work. But as the fallout around the grand jury's report continues, the chair of the state Board of Education is suggesting she should be suspended.

The superintendent of Broward County Public Schools is defending her response to the statewide grand jury report that led to the ouster of four school board members and three district administrators.

Nikolas Cruz has already pleaded guilty to killing 17 people and wounding others at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in 2018. Jurors are deciding whether he'll be executed or spend life in prison.

Gov. Ron DeSantis has removed four Broward County School Board members from office, citing the findings of a statewide grand jury launched in the aftermath of the 2018 Parkland shooting. DeSantis has now appointed a majority of the school board members in one of the state's most Democratic-leaning counties.

It's not a new debate — but could showing graphic evidence of mass school shootings change public opinion on gun laws?
