The Parkland mass shooting trial will not be delayed by the massacre at a Texas elementary school.
As jury selection in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School case was scheduled to resume Wednesday morning, the deaths of 21 victims in Texas cast a shadow over the proceedings. Confessed Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz was late being brought to the courtroom. Lawyers clashed over whether the latest news should be tackled directly or left for potential jurors to raise.
But stopping the trial was never on the table.
