Cop Costanza.

News is what somebody somewhere doesn’t want known.
According to Israel, Peterson remained outside Building 12 for about four minutes. The shooting lasted about six minutes, he said. When the shooting began the deputy was inside the school handling a matter with a female student.
A review of surveillance video showed that the deputy was in position and armed but never entered the building. He remained stationed outside the building while the shooting went on.
Israel said Peterson should have “Went in. Addressed the killer. Killed the killer.”
He said the video was part of the investigation and Israel said it may never be released.

Why would the video never be released? Coverup.
OK. But notice in my link they spelled it Scot.
Please don't take offense because none is intended, but... Say WHAT??
I hope you're mistaken about this and that your NRA training instructor was firing shots into the ground somewhere.
Firing a handgun or rifle into the air is a BIG BIG safety violation. That bullet's gotta come down somewhere, maybe a mile away...
(Please don't do this at home...)
I can understand not wanting to be killed by a psychopath before you get to retire, but he obviously wasn’t planning on retiring until he got suspended. He may be alive, but he’ll be living with the fact that he failed to do his job for the rest of his life, and it cost people their lives. Hope he enjoys being snubbed by the community, and the people he worked with.
Might teachers with guns, who personally know the kids under attack, react more successfully?
“inside – instead waiting outside for another four agonizing minutes as Cruz continued the slaughter.”
Huh!?
Tits on a bull.
5.56mm
“So if I understand correctly, this school already HAD an armed guard?”
No, the school had a sworn Deputy on site who didn’t fire a single shot at the murderer.
Cop Costanza.
“These poor kids. They were let down by so many people.”
So was Nikolas Cruz.
Trump colluded with Russia.
Then Why did he become a cop and take a gun to his job everyday.
Your job in life is to run into danger as everyone else runs away....
Andy Devine...great career.
I was just thinking the same thing....
Pitiful excuse for a man should be Doxed and humiliated till he rots.
When I make the statement that back before LEO needed ‘college’, and when people were turned down - NO questions asked for being too small, too fat, too tall or basically unqualified for any number of reasons you would NEVER have a whole squad of Cops sit in place while awaiting orders to enter a building.
Right, Wrong or indifferent, when I was in school cops would have stormed the school and not sit out there while carnage was taking place seconds away.
Granted when I started school WWII was just winding down and as I got older, the majority of cops were vets who were ‘combat trained’ ..
When I got out of the Navy at 6’ 148 lbs, My local State Police recruiter started by thanking me and suggested I go work out, put some weight on and apply for a ‘local’ PD and then, only when my height and weight were proportional come back and see him.
That was in VA in 1964 and when a VA State Policeman arrived on the scene one was overly impressed with these tall, young MEN looking sharp in their uniforms.
Sorry folks, when LEO arrives on the scene you want someone who can ‘take charge’, not someone that a person of average height and weight looks over to see if he can take the LEO.
Well, for his fear of dying one death he must now die every day for as long as he shall live. God help him.
...
You’ve got it right.
Tits on a boar hog is what we say around here.
"Scot Peterson, who chose to resign after he was suspended without pay. Peterson’s decision was made after investigators reviewed surveillance footage of the Parkland shooting."
He was there just for the pay, he didn’t care about protecting and saving lives.
...
I bet he thought he had a great gig in a school in one of the nicest areas in the county.
