Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : Nikolas Cruz is responsible for the deadliest high school shooting in US history - but he was spared the death penalty.
42% : Many family members wanted him to face the death penalty, so their anger and upset grew as repeated life sentence verdicts were read out.
41% : The jury decided there was no charge in which the aggravating factors have outweighed the mitigating factors - so Cruz was spared the death penalty.
40% : In Florida, a unanimous decision is needed for the death penalty to be issued, so if a single juror disagrees, the defendant will be sentenced to life in prison instead.
