Good point. The longer Israel stays in office, the longer the story is about his criminal negligence. I just saw a report that Scott said he wasn’t going to suspend Isreale.

The rats are getting him onto the first thing making smoke that flies. It may or may not land safely. The last thing the deep state ever wants is this egotistical a$$ clown running his unscripted mouth in front of a grand jury.

Paul Wellstone comes to mind.

Scott is smelling the feces - there is so much bad info available about Israel and the school that if he does nothing, his political career is toast.

Just finished listening to the Jake Tapper interview of Sheriff Israel.

Is Sheriff Israel from Massachusetts? He seems to have a New England accent. If so, that could explain his leftist viewpoints.

Born in New York, Israel is the son of a New York homicide detective. He began his career as a patrol officer for the Fort Lauderdale police department in 1979, later working narcotics in the 1980s and 1990s, when crime was rampant. Israel has been the subject of 10 internal affairs complaints, mainly for excessive force, although he was cleared in all of them. He served a stint as a SWAT commander and was North Bay Village chief of police from 2004 to 2008, but left to run for sheriff in 2008 and 2012. Israel eventually won in 2012, and easily won re-election in 2016.

The legislature needs to do the investigation. Cops investigating cops does not give me confidence. In the meantime, suspend him.

What could go wrong with this? Isn’t there an old adage about doctors healing themselves?

how about a matching investigation of the local social services, who also failed to act?

I’ll see your local social services and raise you the US Departments of Education and Justice (as practiced during the reign of Obama).

All that “Federal money” these Broward County School and Sheriff “experts” were talking about had to come from someplace.....

Not to mention the school system....and all the big city schools for that matter. In fact, how about a big "look-back" at all these Obama-era school shoot-ups.

I'll bet we find a lot of people, both LEOs and on the street that either are, or should be "breaking rocks".

Gosh, I wonder if they’ll find Sheriff Israel is corrupt.

He is and he is already saying he won't resign.

I think they will find out that this Sheriff’s office let this kid Nick Cruz go on a crime in the past that they should have prosecuted him on - enabling him to still get a gun.

Oh, no. Law enforcement is beyond reproach, don’t you know?

What we REALLY need to do is to repeal the Second Amendment!

(And by ‘we’ I mean Democrats)

You gotta read this:

Israel should resign, but the real blame is on the policy of Obama and his idiot liberal fascist supporters in Florida. Governor Scott needs to make this right ASAP!
