CBS Miami April 2, 2022 Jury selection is set to begin Monday in the penalty phase for confessed Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School gunman Nikolas Cruz. During hearings this week, Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer addressed the remaining issues ahead of jury selection. During Wednesday's hearing, attorneys for Cruz and prosecutors argued over whether the jurors who will decide whether he is sentenced to death should be allowed to tour the blood-stained, bullet-pocked classroom building where he went on his murderous shooting spree four years ago.
