Parkland shooter's jury search restarts due to judge's error
Summary by Ground News
The judge overseeing jury selection for a man who murdered 17 people at a Florida high school declared that the process will start over Monday. Judge Elizabeth Scherer conceded that she should have questioned 11 potential jurors who said they would not follow the law before she dismissed them. More than 1,200 candidates had been screened. The misstep will almost certainly push back opening statements from their scheduled date of mid-June.
