Parkland School Shooting Trial Judge Elizabeth Scherer Resigns from Bench.

Judge Elizabeth Scherer, who presided over the Parkland school shooting trial, has announced her resignation from the bench effective June 30. Scherer, who received national attention for her handling of the trial, did not specify her future career plans. Her resignation comes after the Florida Supreme Court removed her from overseeing post-conviction motions of another defendant due to her actions following the sentencing of Nikolas Cruz.
