One prospective juror after another left in tears — the first woman to leave could be heard loudly crying as soon as she left. At some point, the judge dismissed all of them.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — A judge dismissed an entire panel of 60 jurors Monday afternoon after too many became visibly upset at the prospect of deciding the fate of the Parkland mass shooter.
With the confessed killer in the same courtroom, just a few yards away, one prospective juror after another left in tears — the first woman to leave could be heard loudly crying as soon as she left. Subsequent jurors held back tears, or sniffled, their faces distraught. While this was not the first time potential jurors let their emotions get the best of them in Cruz’s presence, it was the most extreme case. Before Tuesday afternoon, Scherer was able to keep the process moving by having emotional jurors removed and questioned later in the day, outside the presence of other jurors.
