Parkland shooting

The trial of Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz is inching forward as jury selection entered its second round this week.

"It's going to be incredibly difficult" to find a jury in this case, says University of Miami Law professor Craig Trocino.

Amid a tumultuous jury selection process, defense attorneys want to the confessed Parkland school shooter to avoid consideration of the death penalty.

The penalty trial for confessed Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz began Monday as a Broward County judge started the process of picking jurors who will decide if he will be executed.

Four years after he killed 17 people and wounded 17 others at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, Nikolas Cruz goes on trial. He's already pleaded guilty and hopes to avoid the death penalty.

The Department of Justice said the settlement "does not amount to an admission of fault by the United States" in its statement.

In memory of the 17 people killed in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre, flags at all state and local buildings, installations and grounds in Florida will be flown at half-staff from sunrise to sunset on Monday.

Nikolas Cruz pleaded guilty last fall to 17 counts of first-degree murder, but that did not end the case — prosecutors still have to convince 12 jurors that his crime deserves the death penalty.

Families of more than a dozen victims of the 2018 school shooting have reached a settlement with the Justice Department to resolve their lawsuit over the FBI's failure to act on tips about the gunman.

The confessed Parkland school shooter may face the death penalty after a hearing Wednesday. Here's what that could mean, some of the history of the penalty in Florida, and a timeline for what's next in his case.

The families of 52 people killed, injured or traumatized during the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High have reached a $25 million settlement with the Broward School District, the lawyer for the families confirmed Monday.
