Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Michael Hanzman said at a remote hearing Wednesday that any plans to build a memorial on the site where the building once stood would be unrealistic. He said the lot must be sold to compensate the victims, and at least one bidder has offered up to $120 million for the lot. “It has to be used for the benefit of all the victims collectively,” Hanzman said, rather than using it as the site for the memorial itself as some families want....
