Gov. Ron DeSantis to suspend and replace Broward Sheriff Scott Israel on Friday
Sun Sentinal ^ | 1/11/19 | Anthony Man

Posted on 01/11/2019 1:51:29 PM PST by DeathBeforeDishonor1

Gov. Ron DeSantis is expected Friday to suspend Broward Sheriff Scott Israel and replace him with a former Coral Springs police sergeant with a background in active-shooter training.

DeSantis will make the announcement at the Broward Sheriff’s Office headquarters on Friday afternoon, sources told the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

“We have an event that we’re doing tomorrow,” the governor’s press office said Thursday night. “The governor’s going to issue a statement on holding government officials accountable.”

DeSantis press office declined to provide any more details about what would happen on Friday.

Israel’s replacement, former Coral Springs Police Sgt. Gregory Tony, will be presented at the event, a source said.

Unprepared and overwhelmed: Detailed timeline shows 58 minutes of chaos in Parkland | Investigation When asked earlier in the week if he was going to be the new sheriff, Tony, 40, of Boca Raton, said he could not comment either way.

He left the Coral Springs Police Department after 12 years in 2016. Tony now has his own company, Blue Spears Solution, which specializes in active-shooter training and provides threat assessments on schools and other businesses.

Tony would be the county’s first black sheriff.

Good, they need some firearms and tactical training.

DeSantis is doing what he said he would do.

1. Appointing a conservative judge to the Florida Supreme Court to replace one of the three justices who were forced to retire.

2. Terminating the Broward County sheriff.

Elections do have consequences, just imagine what Andrew Gillum would have done in his first three days in office.

A move slow in coming, but former Governor Rick Scott was reluctant to muddy his Senatorial campaign by acting earlier.

Now, the fallout will rain down on Broward County, one of the most corrupt in the state.

Gillum would be building a Sabaneque statue in West Palm Beach and beatifying Sheriff Israel (I hate that such a beautiful name is the surname of such a liberal, political scum of a “law enforcement official”).

“Overwhelmed”. I’m 60 yrs old and I have no clue what that means here. Overwhelmed how? Too many gunmen? Too many full auto weapons going off all at once? What? There was a person or persons inside a school shooting. You go to the school, look around outside. You go inside and move around until you contact a shooter. How is this overwhelming?
