PARKLAND, Fla. — A judge has refused to step aside from the case of Florida school shooting suspect Nikolas Cruz as requested by his lawyers. Court records show that Broward County Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer denied the request Monday. Cruz’s lawyers claimed Scherer has made rulings and comments that indicate favoritism for prosecutors. They say in court papers that Cruz can’t get a fair trial, but Scherer disagreed. Cruz, 19, is charged with 17 counts of murder in the Valentine’s Day shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla.
