Parkland, FL — As more information continues to come out on the utter failure of police and FBI in stopping the overt and obvious threat that was Nikolas Cruz, it now appears that the public is being deceived. According to records, obtained from the Broward County Sheriff’s Office, police were told about the Florida shooter nearly twice as much as they’ve admitted.
According to a report by CNN, records obtained from the sheriff’s office by CNN show the law enforcement agency received at least 45 calls for service relating to Cruz or his brother from 2008 to 2017, before the attack at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland on Feb. 14. The sheriff’s office has insisted it received no more than 23 calls for service regarding Cruz or his family.
According to the report, the sheriff’s office has repeatedly refused to answer questions in regard to the glaring difference in what their records show versus what they are telling the public. Instead, they have doubled down on the original number.
CNN reports:
On Feb. 15, CNN received a Broward County Sheriff’s Office log based on a public records request showing 39 calls from Cruz’s house over a six-year period. During CNN’s town hall on the Parkland school shooting last Wednesday, NRA representative Dana Loesch confronted Sheriff Israel about those 39 calls, though she inaccurately described them as being 39 visits from police in one year.
The next day, at a press conference in the wake of growing public criticism, Israel said his agency “has been involved in 23 type calls involving the killer in some way, shape or form — or his brother.”
What’s more, over the weekend, the sheriff’s office again stated the lower number instead of what the actual report from their own department shows and claimed that the 39 number was not true.
“Since 2008, BSO responded to 23 incidents where previous contact was made with the killer or his family. STOP REPORTING 39; IT’S SIMPLY NOT TRUE,” read the statement from the sheriff’s office.
