Nikolas Cruz killed 17 people in the Parkland mass shooting, on February 14, 2018. Now, his defence are pleading for a Florida jury to save him from the death penalty.

Melisa McNeil, Cruz’s leading Attorney claims her client suffered fetal brain damage, caused by alcohol and drug abuse.

The defence claims this alleged brain damage lead to life-long mental health disorders.

“Because of that, his brain was irretrievably broken, through no fault of his own.”
