Police reveal they were called out 39 TIMES to his family home before his mother died last year.
He told authorities that voices in his head told him how to carry out the shooting.
According to his legal team he suffers from autism, depression and has other significant psychological problems.
Police were called to his family's home in Parkland, Fl. 39 times since 2010.
Cruz's adoptive mother died in November from pneumonia and the father died years before of a heart attack.
He also said he had 'trouble with a girl' and he believed the timing of the attack, carried out on Valentine's Day, wasn't a coincidence.
Lynda and her husband, who died of a heart attack several years ago, adopted Cruz and his biological brother, Zachary, after the couple moved from Long Island in New York to Broward County. Cruz was an infant when he was adopted.
It's unclear if he was adopted from the U.S. or aboard. Adopted children from abroad sometimes have issues adjusting due to neglect in their orphanages, especially children from Russia.

“I still want to kn0w where a 17 yr old came up with an AR-15”
He was 18 or 19, not 17.
His mother died in November so maybe he had some $$$ from her.
Parental age is usually an issue. I don’t know of any couple in their late 40s who’ve had an adoption go through, unless it was grandparents adopting grandkids.
There are far fewer nuts than guns.
Let’s try nut control.
Much of the autism is caused by emotional suppression from childhood trauma. They shut down to not experience their painful emotions.
I feel for this guy...
Trauma rejection from both birth parents by being put up for adoption.
Trauma rejection when adoptive father died.
Trauma rejection when adoptive mother died.
Trauma rejection when thrown out of school.
Trauma rejection apparently when girlfriend dumped him.
That’s a lot for a young person to deal with.
Confirms what I have believed, we are seeing he spiritual warfare made visual.
Correction: the.
“dangerous psychotics”
I agree. Children are given drugs that block necessary learning experiences a child must go through, such as the “terrible two’s.”
These are stage development experiences that become the foundation for a healthy adult.
Drugs block a soul’s ability to grow.
I do workshops on “Prayer” where I use volunteers to show how prayer changes a person’s perception on life. People on antidepressants can pray for an hour with minimal change as the drugs block the ability to tune consciousness to higher levels in prayer.
That should be on billboards all over the country.
“Confirms what I have believed, we are seeing he spiritual warfare made visual.”
I 100% agree with you.
True — all of those things. Add to it the bullying he apparently experienced at school. The kids being interviewed now, as “we’re inclusive” and “we celebrate diversity” angels... I’m not buying it 100%. Being bullied is a terrible thing. I was, but didn’t have all the other issues that he had. I can’t even imagine trying to cope with that whole panel of issues.
Too bad he didn’t recognize he absolutely needed the help instead of walking away from the psychiatric treatment he was receiving.
Look for the AC to come from the MidEast.
....Yet the devil is for real.
he’s 19, and he bought it at a store and passed the “background check”
“Too bad he didn’t recognize he absolutely needed the help instead of walking away from the psychiatric treatment he was receiving.”
The problem is that psychiatrists usually prescribe drugs to mask the symptoms rather than addressing and resolving the root cause. It’s not possible to do psychotherapy in a 15 minute visit.
Well I am not surprised that America is under spiritual attack. When we KICKED GOD OUT,it created a vacuum and we know, nature hates a vacuum.
Good grief, another conspiracy nut theory!
The ritalin phenomenon has been rife since the 80s.
I can’t tell you it’s religious implications. I can tell you it is a medical fraud.
A swift swat to the rear used to keep kids in line. In my day you were swatted by teachers and if your father found out you got it again.
The left has prevented traditional parenting. Perhaps the left is the purview of Satan. I used to have religious views on things. Now I let God take care of things celestial and I concentrate on take care of earthly problems. To wait for divine intervention is basically just giving up.
In other words, 'Leftist voices'.
