FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - Confessed Parkland killer Nikolas Cruz’s penalty trial is set to get underway in just a couple weeks.
The judge, Tuesday, set aside three weeks for jury selection, which will begin Monday, April 4.
Cruz has already pleaded guilty to the Parkland shooting, but a jury must decide if he will be put to death or receive a life sentence without parole.
He opened fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine’s Day 2018.
Fourteen students and three staff members were killed.
Seventeen others were injured.
