0:54Now PlayingSentencing for Nikolas Cruz, on trial for the 2018 Parkland school shooting, has been delayed again after a judge ruled to restart jury selection.

Two weeks after it began, jury selection in the death penalty trial of confessed school shooter Nikolas Cruz started again Monday morning inside a Broward County courtroom.
A procedural error caused Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer to dismiss 200 jurors and nullified two weeks of work toward selecting 12 jurors and eight alternates, leading to the latest delay in the case.
Scherer said Monday the trial won't begin any earlier than June 21. Last week, Scherer said she expected it to commence June 13 after originally setting a start date of May 31.
Cruz, 23, plead guilty in October to 17 counts of first-degree murder and 17 counts of attempted first-degree murder in the Valentine's Day 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas in Parkland.
