Phoenix Ikner Trial Delay Requested

Phoenix Ikner, the 21-year-old accused in the Florida State University shooting that killed two and wounded six, appeared in court for the first time — and the trial date remains set for October, despite his defense pushing for delays.

With the death penalty sought by prosecutors, the court will soon decide whether to adjust the timeline — but for now, October stands firm.
