On his CNN show this morning, Jake Tapper raked Broward Sheriff Scott Israel over the coals for his departments mishandling of the Parkland school shooting.
Israel bobbed and weaved, but at one point his ego revealed itself. After claiming that as sheriff he has provided amazing leadership, Israel vaingloriously boasted that if he had been at the school:
I would have been the first in.

Well.....you weren’t. So shut up.
Easy to say now, when 4 deputies were derelict in their duty and allowed kids to die.

Tapper took heat for his handling of the town hall. But he did an amazing journalistic job with Israel this morning. For half an hour, he raked him over the coals on a wide range of issues.
Here’s the video of the full interview.

Broward County Benghazi ...... lots of similarities if you think about it.
... an aged out one who has money to blow on cosmetic surgery and hair transplants.
...says the desk-jockey.
I suspect we will eventually find that Israel’s own departmental rules of engagement played a large part in all his officers remaining positioned outside the school instead of running to the gunfire.
REMF
CNN knows how to protect themselves and they know how to protect our schools. But they'd rather have the debate for political reasons... to unarm citizens... to get ratings. But they know and we know it.
CNN deserves a ton of criticism. But in this case, Tapper absolutely raked Israel over the coals. My blog posted here only scratches the surface. The full interview can be seen here.

I smell a weasel in Lion's clothing....always those who brag the loudest about their inherent bravery that hide the real coward's heart...
And if Israel would have been around on D-Day, he would have stormed the cliffs at Normandy Beach solo, knife between the teeth, and taken out all those machine-gun nests.

Not to worry though (/sarc)...Broward County Sheriff Israel is initiating an investigation...
Coral Springs officers and Broward County Sheriff's deputies have been at odds over what happened and who responded first.When Coral Springs police officers arrived at the school, they were surprised to find that the school resource officer and three sheriff's deputies had not entered the building, sources tell CNN.
The sources cautioned that surveillance tapes are under review and official accounts could ultimately differ from recollections of officers on the scene.
The Broward County Sheriff's Office said it is investigating reports that the three additional deputies didn't attempt to enter the building as the shooting was going on.
Peterson, the school's resource officer, resigned following his suspension Thursday.
"I was disgusted. I was just demoralized with the performance of former deputy (Scot) Peterson," Israel said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." Israel said the actions of the three sheriff's deputies are under investigation.
*****
In essence, the Broward Country Sheriff is going to investigate his own culpability and find none since the Parkland school CCTV had a 27 minute delay built in

As for any report coming from the likes of CNN
The document you posted.
This witness saw Cruz and radioed someone. When the shooting started this witness radioed a "code red" meaning a school emergency. That doesn't sound like LE jargon. And after Cruz was detained this witness was brought to the scene to ID him as the person this witness saw entering the building with the bags.
I conclude this witness is not Peterson who was reported to be somewhere else when the gunfire stated.
Verbally satisfying each other!
