An attorney representing the suspect in last year's Florida high school massacre and the judge overseeing the case got into a brief but heated argument Friday during an otherwise routine pretrial hearing over evidence
Assistant Public Defender Melisa McNeill accused Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer of misrepresenting her arguments during a hearing over whether prosecutors are turning over in a full and timely manner evidence McNeill and Nikolas Cruz's other attorneys have requested. Scherer accused McNeill of being disrespectful.
Assistant State Attorney Nicole Chiappone conceded there have been occasional delays caused by police and prosecution error, but said some of the defense's written evidence requests haven't been clear. McNeill replied that if she needed to simplify her language so prosecutors could understand her, she would.
Scherer called a recess, telling McNeill"you need to take a deep breath and sit down or whatever it is, but you are being disrespectful and I am not going to be talked to in this way."
