Aye, Scot the Sheriff

“Scot Peterson, the former Broward Sheriff’s deputy responsible for protecting Marjory Stoneman Douglas High in Parkland, has been criminally charged for failing to confront a gunman who methodically shot and killed 17 students and staffers.” (Peterson may deserve to be in jail. But this doesn’t seem like a step in the direction of solving, or even addressing, the school shootings issue…) “His arrest caught many in the law enforcement community off guard. Filing of criminal charges against police officers for failing to act is virtually unheard of in Florida.”
