Jury Starts Deliberation in Trial of Parkland Mass Shooter Nikolas Cruz
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In Florida, jurors begin deliberations today to determine the fate of
Parkland mass shooter Nikolas Cruz, who killed 17 people at Marjory
Stoneman Douglas High School in 2018. Cruz could face the death penalty.
This is lead prosecutor Michael Satz delivering closing arguments to the
jury Tuesday.

Michael Satz: "He picked Valentine's Day to do it while school was in
session. And you could tell by the evidence in the testimony - you've
been sitting here and listening to everything - this plan was
goal-directed, it was calculated, it was purposeful, and it was a
systematic massacre."
