It got ugly.' Jurors in Parkland school massacre case report feeling threatened

CNN) One of the three jurors in the Parkland school massacre case who was against the death penalty for Nikolas Cruz told CNN Friday she did not make her decision until the "very last minute."

Ultimately, she was persuaded to vote for life without parole because she "felt that the system failed" Cruz repeatedly throughout his life, from the schools he attended to mental health professionals who evaluated him.

"I saw several pieces of evidence where several (experts had) recommended (Cruz) be in a residential facility. That never happened," said Melody Vanoy, who was a juror in the case.
