Armed School Officer Was At FL School During Shooting, Didn’t Enter Building

By Brandon Curtis

In an unexpected twist to the terrible school shooting that happened in Parkland, FL last week, reports have come out which tell the story of an armed Deputy on scene. That armed Deputy, a school resources officer specifically assigned to the school that was targeted, did not enter the building in which the shooting was taking place.

The shooting lasted a total of 6 minutes, and the Deputy is reported to have waited outside for at least 4 of those minutes. Security cameras captured his actions during the shooting.

President Trump has since criticized the Deputy for his failure to act, calling him a ‘coward’ who did not have enough ‘courage’ to engage the suspect.

Broward County Deputy Officer Scot Peterson resigned from his post on Thursday after word got out that the 54-year-old had been the only armed deputy on the scene and had done nothing to apprehend Cruz as he killed 17 people.

“I am devastated,” Israel said at a press conference. “Sick to my stomach. He never went in.”
