"School officer stood outside for 4 minutes doing ‘nothing’ during massacre:
When asked by reporters to describe how the video made him feel, Sheriff Israel responded, “Sick to my stomach” and “devastated.”
“It doesn’t matter who went in first, it doesn’t matter in what order you went in,” he said. “What matters is that when we in law enforcement arrive at an active shooter, we go in and address the target and that’s what should have been done.”
Why of course, go with the local Sheriff who had this guy in custody a number of times and his department did nothing.
Sounds like an unbiased guy to me.
Depending on how the departments are configured down there, this sheriff could lose his job.
The only way he wouldn’t is if a local police department were the arresting agency that 30 times. That may be the case, so that would nullify my comment about his bias here.
Look, officers get called to the scene where a shooter is, they do not rush the building. They wait until there is a decent crew there and then they methodically clear the building.
In addition, responding officers have vests, some form of long rifle, and other resources at their disposal.
We’re talking about a lone ranger officer on a big campus with only a side-arm.
He didn’t act any differently than first single officers showing up at a mass shooting in a large building.
That sheriff either knows that or he is flat ass lying. And if he doesn’t know it, what’s that tell you?
