After disgraced and incompetent Broward County Sheriff, Scott Israel, was removed from his command, the newly appointed Broward Sheriff Gregory Tony turned his focus to the internal investigation exploring the way in which seven deputies responded to the school shooting.
The Broward County Sheriff's Office released this statement:
Today, as a result of the continuing internal investigation and disciplinary process, Broward County Sheriff Gregory Tony officially announced the termination of two deputies who were found to have neglected their duties. The two are former Deputy Scot Peterson and Sergeant Brian Miller. The deputy and sergeant were found to have neglected their duties at MSD High School. They have been terminated and will no longer be privileged to serve as law enforcement deputies for the Broward Sheriff’s Office.
Subsequent to an administrative discipline hearing at BSO headquarters this afternoon, former Deputy Peterson was taken into custody on multiple felony and misdemeanor charges and booked into the BSO Main Jail.
Peterson was correctly labeled "a coward" by President Trump, and he was arrested by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) on "seven counts of neglect of a child and three counts of culpable negligence and one count of perjury," the FDLE said in a statement.
"If convicted, the 11 charges technically carry a maximum potential punishment of 96.5 years in state prison," the statement continued.
This has given some small sense of relief to some of the parents of the children who were killed.
This is a breaking story so check for updates.
