BREAKING: Coward Scot Peterson arrested on multiple charges

Former Broward County Sheriff's deputy Scot Peterson, the coward who did nothing to protect the lives of the children at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School during the Parkland shooting in 2018, has been arrested on multiple felony and misdemeanor charges. The entire incident was a disgusting display of cowardice and incompetence.

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.

Scott Israel claims his incompetence 'Is all about politics'

Some people just cannot accept how totally incompetent they are and pull the victimhood tissue to wipe their tears.

Following his suspension by newly elected Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel vowed to take legal action because he's actually too incompetent to know that he's incompetent. Worse, he's an arrogant a**hole and is more politically motivated than the Democrats rejecting the border wall.

Despite reports and investigations showing numerous flaws that led to more deaths at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14, 2018, Israel proclaimed his suspension was “about politics.”

No, weasel whisperer, it's about how kids died because of your incompetence and because your department was too cowardly to do what they are paid to do.

"This suspension is not about what occurred on February 14th,” Israel claimed. “The governor promised as a candidate – well before he had any facts of the investigation, well before the commission even began their work – that he would remove me from office. Today, he merely fulfilled a campaign promise. This was about politics, not about Parkland."

Actually, there was a boat load of facts simply from the video of the shooting in Parkland.

Israel went on to say no one from DeSantis’ staff nor the governor himself spoke to Israel about what happened in Parkland, and that the governor was carrying out the will of the National Rifle Association (NRA), of which he offered no facts.

He also suggested that suspending him was an “easy” way to ignore the real problem, which is gun violence in America--which would have been minimized had the police gone into the school to neutralize the shooter with their own guns, rather than hiding behind a structure until the coast was clear. Police from a nearby town came rushing in and dealt with the situation the way they are supposed to and the shooting ended.

The other real problem for Israel is that the investigation and commission he spoke about found that his department’s active shooter training was ineffective, though they did not recommend suspending Israel.

Beside the fact that his department had information about the shooter after they received two calls – one in 2016 and one in 2017 – warning that the shooter was a potential school shooter. The department also had 20 previous contacts with the shooter relating to arguments with his now-deceased mother.

Israel was also criticized in the report for changing his department’s policy from saying officers “shall” confront active shooters to saying they “may” confront them, implying that if their nail polish was still wet, they could wait it out. Specifically, I'm talking only about Scot Peterson, the deputy who hid outside while the shooting was going on inside the school. In no way do I intend to discredit women--they would have gone in faster than his men.

In his statement announcing Israel’s suspension, Gov. DeSantis said the sheriff “has repeatedly failed and has demonstrated a pattern of poor leadership," but as a liberal Democrat, he felt he was doing the right thing.

"These incidents demonstrate Sheriff’s Israel’s repeated incompetence and neglect of duty," DeSantis’ executive order removing Israel said. "The families of the victims deserve accountability. It is my job as Governor to ensure that the safety of our local communities, especially the safety of our children, is paramount. Government officials must be held accountable for their actions, and/or inactions. For these reasons, I am suspending Sheriff Israel from office effective immediately.”

Seventeen people were killed in the Parkland school shooting because Broward County deputies failed to do their jobs. Sheriff Israel repeatedly defended their actions and his own when asked about the failures by the investigating commission, proving his incompetence and inability to serve and protect his community.

Scott Israel is probably the worst sheriff ever to strap on whatever it is he straps on.

It's a new year and the world still hasn't come to an end with President Trump in the White House, in spite of what the media and the left [but I repeat myself] would have you believe.

Parkland deputy Scot Peterson afraid to show for investigative panel

First the Broward County Parkland deputy, Scot Peterson, was afraid to enter the school as kids were systematically being slaughtered by a gunman at Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS in February. Now he is afraid to testify before a public safety commission investigating the massacre.

One question Peterson, 55, would have been asked if he had the courage to attend the investigation is why didn't he enter the Parkland, Florida school building where 17 people were being killed, one of the largest mass shootings in modern U.S. history, as he waited outside pissing on his shoes.

In his place, the school resource officer's lawyer, Joseph DiRuzzo, appeared before the commission. He told them that he filed a lawsuit to stop the 14-member panel's subpoena.

The commission, which meets this week to discuss the Valentine's Day shooting, criticized the frightened deputy on Wednesday, as they believed had he had not been busy being frozen in fear and entered the building immediately, he could have prevented at least six deaths.

"He was a cop in name only," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said. "If he had been a real cop, he would have run in there with that gun."

The parent of one of the young women who was killed told DiRuzzo that Peterson "didn't do his job." My daughter should be alive."

Peterson got caught lying when he claimed to have heard only two or three shots and didn't know whether they were coming from inside or outside the three-story freshman building. Radio calls proved him a liar as he is heard to identify the building as the shooter's location. Bullets fired through the window of that building was also further proof that he was afraid to save lives. Instead, he took cover almost directly above that window.

About 150 rounds were fired!

The poor guy resigned soon after the massacre rather than face being fired--being fired scared him too.

The icing on the Peterson crap sandwich was afterward when he had the audacity to question how others "keep saying I did nothing?"

Note: Scot Peterson is not related to Brenda Snipes.

Does anyone still trust Broward County?

Florida deputy who cowered behind a barrier while kids were being killed isn't a coward, eh?

Scot Peterson, the Parkland school's armed school guard who failed to guard the school while children and staff were being murdered by a 19-year-old while he cowered behind a barrier waiting for things to cool down, is not a coward just because he cowered and failed to do his job, says his delusional lawyer.

Peterson was supposed to engage the shooter as quickly as possible to save lives, but he stayed outside.

One of the survivors, David Hogg, who has been appearing on TV over and over to speak out against guns rather than the people who kill with guns, said that cops don't want to face down AR-15s, and he understands why Peterson was afraid to go into the school and do that.

"Who wants to go down the barrel of an AR-15, even with a Glock?" he said.

I wonder how Peterson could know the shooter was using an AR-15. The Colt AR-15 fires a .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO round. But so does a bunch of other firearms such as:

Bushmaster ACR rifle, Kel-Tec SU-16 series semi-auto rifle; Saiga 223 semi-auto rifle; Remington Model 7615 Police Patrol Rifle; Remington Model 700 series bolt-action rifle; Ruger Mini-14 semi-auto rifle; Steyr Scout series bolt-action rifle; Winchester Model 70 series bolt-action rifle; Volquartsen Evolution autoloading varmint rifle; Bushmaster Firearms International#Carbon 15 semi-automatic carbon-polymer-based AR-15 rifle.

And this list doesn't even include international military weapons, which is far more extensive.

So while teenage survivors of school shootings can say whatever they want to say without impunity or challenge of thought, David Hogg doesn't know what he's talking about, and even if he did, Peterson signed up for the job and failed to perform. And some of Hogg's fellow students who were killed might have been saved by a braver deputy.

Peterson's lawyer said that he acted appropriately but that's what his lawyer would have to say to defend the coward.

Blame Broward Sheriff, FBI and cowardly cops--not the NRA

The shooting rampage at the Parkland, Florida school is the worst failure of law enforcement in American history as far as I can tell. 

Coral Springs police, who responded to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting, say several Broward sheriff's deputies waited outside the building while the gunman kept shooting and killing students, rather than doing their job!

In all, 17 people were killed by the mentally deranged 19-year-old whose name will no longer be written herein.

The Broward Sheriff Scott Israel knew about at least one cop who was hidden behind a barrier outside the school while the shooting took place, but instead, Israel blamed the NRA, an organization that wasn't there and aren't responsible for the protection of those students. 

What nonsense.

In fact, in the Texas church shooting, an NRA instructor, who is a civilian, was there and went after the shooter, unlike Scot Peterson and the other deputies who hid outside. 

In fact, it was an AR-15 that saved lives that day.

Peterson was suspended by Scott Israel, not fired, but he resigned in shame.

The Florida Sun-Sentinel reported that according to police sources at least three Broward deputies, including Peterson, waited outside while the killer mowed down people. The Broward Sheriff's Office said Friday that it's investigating the Coral Springs officer's claims, but someone needs to investigate Sheriff Israel, who clearly has a political, rather than a law enforcement agenda.

Scott Israel with a loser

All the red flags about the shooter were disregarded. The police had arrived at his house about 38 times in the past. A vlogger went to the FBI after the gunman had written on a post of his vlog with his real name, that he wanted to become a professional school shooter. 

Nothing was done.

The shooter had a history of putting a gun to his mother's head and threatening her. He threw chairs at people in school and was eventually expelled for his violent behavior.

Just which red flag were they looking for?

And the knee-jerk reaction is to go political, to call for more gun control laws, as if that would have made a difference. The left now claims that even those with guns [the cops] weren't able to stop a guy with an AR-15.

Scot Peterson

That's because they didn't do their job. Trump nailed it: they are cowards. He was referring only to Peterson when he said it, but I suspect he would agree about the others.

The FBI admitted it failed to investigate warnings about the shooter, but they also failed to apologize for that failure.

A child welfare agency looked into claims about the shooter, but they concluded he wasn't a risk to himself or others.

Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel admitted to the Sun-Sentinel that three Coral Springs officers said one or more sheriff's deputies didn't go into the school, and while he knew that before he went on camera to attack the NRA, he never admitted this until afterward.

I blame Scott Israel for not doing his job and for his vile dishonesty. He called for gun control and attacked the NRA, but would anyone in their right mind give up their guns and expect these incompetent buffoons to protect our kids?

I don't trust Scott Israel. If Peterson hadn't been caught on tape cowering behind a barricade, and the Coral Springs officers making their statement about the other cowardly deputies, I fully believe Israel would not have revealed this happened.

Coral Springs city manager Mike Goodrum, the day after the shooting, confronted Israel about the deputies' failure to respond. Goodrum only said he and Israel had a "heated discussion."

The Coral Springs PD issued a statement late Friday:

"There were countless deputies and officers who responded on that fateful day from multiple jurisdictions, whose actions were nothing short of heroic."

Broward County Sheriff's Department was not among them.
