17 murder charges laid against suspect in Florida shooting, could face death penalty if found guilty

17 first-degree murder charges have been laid against the suspect in the Florida school shooting. Nikolas Cruz also faces 17 counts of attempted murder. If found guilty, Cruz could be facing the death penalty. His public defender says he will plead guilty if prosecutors take the death penalty off the table, which would mean life in prison.
