I think the ONLY issue is how severe Peterson should be punished for being the coward that he clearly was. I believe he knew EXACTLY what was going on but, fearing for his own life, let the children die one at a time on the other side of the wall.
There should be SOME KIND of punishment for LEO’s not doing their duty. They should not get off scot free. The taxpayers didn’t pay him to RUN when and if the killing started they paid him to FIGHT the bad guy.
See post 15. Legally, Peterson as an officer was not required to do anything but take a police report.
