It's the latest indication of how law enforcement encountered warning signs about Cruz's violent behavior before he attacked students and teachers at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine's Day. Lynda Cruz was a widow raising her two adopted teenage boys by herself in Broward County, according to acquaintances CNN interviewed. Without anyone to turn to after their mother's death, Nikolas Cruz and his younger brother Zachary were both taken in by Rocxanne Deschamps, a former neighbor who had been close to the family. Thousands of mourners attend a candlelight vigil the day after the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida. That's where, according to records, Cruz allegedly continued to have the same explosive, violent outbursts he had as a young boy living at his mother's home.
