Scott IsraelMichael Laughlin/ZUMA Press/NewscomBroward County Sheriff Scott Israel—the man whose agency failed to prevent the Parkland massacre despite having received a tip last November that Nikolas Cruz was plotting a mass shooting—has been accused of public corruption.
Two years ago, the Sun Sentinel reported that Israel was rewarding top political supporters by giving them and their family members cushy jobs doing public relations and community outreach for the Broward County Sheriff's Office. One such position, outreach manager, paid out a salary of $78,489. The person who got that job was the husband of Israel's campaign manager.
Israel had been a Republican but ran for office as a Democrat. He was first elected sheriff in 2012, then re-elected in 2016. According to the Sun Sentinel:

He is such a clown.
We don’t want to give up our guns when his cowards won’t even go in to protect children.
The more that I learn about this individual, the more convinced I am that he is one DIRTY cop.
In fact,the evidence coming out clearly shows that Lion Israel's Broward Sheriff Department does not care very much about it's sheep at all
Sir Coward of Broward.
As a lion, I do not care about the opinion of the cowardly sheep sheriff.
The more that I learn about this individual, the more convinced I am that he is one DIRTY cop.

You beat me to it.
“Israel had been a Republican but ran for office as a Democrat. He was first elected sheriff in 2012, then re-elected in 2016. “
So he is in Office as a Democrat but he is rally a Republican. Sounds reasonable. Does this mean Hillary is going to turn into a closet Republican?
In the Parkland case, their security system had a dismal record concerning student safety and security that should be brought to public discussion particularly beginning with this school having a so called “gun free zone”.
It did have an officer who may be armed assigned to patrol the multi acre site in a golf cart, but bans guns from the rest of its internal security
Criticism arose when the officer assigned to this duty who was nearing retirement He was reported to arrive late and after Cruz had entered the building but stationed himself outside the large structure and had called for support. Two officers responded Which and did the same. He then left before Cruz did.
These laissez faire attitudes strongly suggest examining records of reporting how the bureaucracy at this school handled student vs student, and student vs teacher (Cruz was accused of this) altercations, vandalism, thefts, and drug use. Which are bound to occur were being dealt with.To which a dramatic reduction in disciplinary incidents were reported after a visit by Obama occurred.
Because of these Ding Bat liberal policies it brings up another question. Just how safe and secure are those kids ? There’s a lot of krap that happens; Assaults, fights, thefts, books and items stolen, teachers accosted, kids intimidated....
Examine records reporting how student vs student, and student vs teacher altercations, vandalism, and thefts, which are bound to occur were being dealt with.
Because in an educational unit this size it’s pretty clear their security system failed . In a secure system Cruz would have never gotten inside.
Now that school board has decided to tear down the school which was probably raised by a funding referendums and the grounds house a memorial.
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection, and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water
When the “sheep” are footing the bill, the “lion” better answer.
This lion did answer, at the cost of his life.
The Murder of a Top Chicago Police Officer In a City of Violence
Overshadowed by the shocking massacre in Parkland, Fla., last week was a tragic loss in Chicago. Chicago Police Department Commander Paul Bauer, 53, commander of the city’s 18th District, was murdered on February 13 in broad daylight in the heart of the Loop by a four-time felon running away from a police tactical unit that had tried to question him about drug activity. Bauer, who headed up one of Chicago’s largest police districts, was about to enter a meeting with city aldermen when he heard on the radio about the fleeing suspect and saw a man matching the wanted’s description near the James R. Thompson Center state government building, which is located across the street from City Hall. Though no longer a beat cop, Bauer attempted to detain the suspect, Shomari Legghette. They struggled, fell down an outside stairwell at the Thompson Center, and then Legghette opened fire with a 9mm handgun with a an extended clip. Bauer was hit six times and died almost immediately.
As a senior police officer, Bauer did not have to pursue Legghette. But the married father of a 13-year-old daughter apparently never hesitated. As commander of the 18th District, he had publicly expressed frustration with the difficulty of getting hardened repeat offenders off Chicago’s streets. In tragic irony, Legghette, who had a decades-long criminal rap sheet that included four felony convictions, was just the kind of repeat criminal Bauer worked to lock up. Legghette, in addition to carrying the 9mm, was wearing a bullet-proof vest under his coat and had heroin, marijuana, and cocaine on him when arrested at the scene.

He exhibits an attitude of conceit andsuperiority over the people he works for and if there is any justice the more his complicity and incompetence come to light he will be very quickly sent to the unemployment line and ash heap of history.
