FLA Governor Demands FBI Chief STEP DOWN For IGNORING Tips About High School Shooter

As I mentioned earlier today, the FBI COMPLETELY IGNORED a tip that came in about Nikolas Cruz last month.

Not only that, they brushed off ANOTHER tip about him from last September, when he LITERALLY TOLD PEOPLE HE WANTED TO BE A SCHOOL SHOOTER.

While everyone loses their minds about gun control, they’ve lost sight of who ACTUALLY killed these 17 people… (It wasn’t the gun)…and the fact that he could have been stopped.

The FBI received MULTIPLE warnings about him…

And did nothing.

Florida’s governor, Rick Scott, is now calling for the Chief of the FBI to step down for this utter failure.

According to this:

Florida governor Rick Scott is calling for Christopher Wray to step down from the top spot at the FBI after the agency admitted to ignoring information it had received about Nikolas Cruz from a source close to the the shooter.

‘The caller provided information about Cruz’s gun ownership, desire to kill people, erratic behavior, and disturbing social media posts, as well as the potential of him conducting a school shooting,’ said the FBI in a statement on Friday.

The agency went on to state that this information, which came in over their Public Access Line, should have been classified as ‘a potential threat to life’ and the Miami field office notified about the information.

Unbelievable.

Those protocols were not followed however for reasons that are still not clear, and on Wednesday Cruz shot dead 17 people.

‘Seventeen innocent people are dead and acknowledging a mistake isn’t going to cut it,’ said Governor Scott .

‘We constantly promote “see something, say something,” and a courageous person did just that to the FBI. And the FBI failed to act.’

He then stated: ‘”See something, say something” is an incredibly important tool and people must have confidence in the follow through from law enforcement. The FBI Director needs to resign.’

His anger was shared by many of the friends and family members who attended funerals for loved ones on Friday soon after the FBI shared this news.

I can’t imagine how they must feel. To think that your child could have been saved, but simply wasn’t due to someone’s laziness or incompetence must be absolutely devastating.

FBI Chief Wray said they’re “getting to the bottom of this.”

‘We are still investigating the facts. I am committed to getting to the bottom of what happened in this particular matter, as well as reviewing our processes for responding to information that we receive from the public. It’s up to all Americans to be vigilant, and when members of the public contact us with concerns, we must act properly and quickly,’ said Wray on Friday.

‘We have spoken with victims and families, and deeply regret the additional pain this causes all those affected by this horrific tragedy.’

“Getting to the bottom of this” won’t bring anyone back.

This marks at least the third mass shooting in the past two years that was carried out by an individual the FBI had been alerted too, but opted not to further investigate.

Omar Mateen was known to have possible terror ties when he massacred 49 people back in 2016 at Pulse nightclub in Orlando and Esteban Santiago walked into a field office in Anchorage, Alaska with a loaded handgun to report having terrorist thoughts just days before he killed five at the Fort Lauderdale Airport.

AG Jeff Sessions is also launching an investigation.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions also announced on Friday that he would be launching an investigation into how both the FBI and Department of Justice handle report and tips moving forward.

‘I have ordered the Deputy Attorney General to conduct an immediate review of our process here at the Department of Justice and FBI to ensure that we reach the highest level of prompt and effective response to indications of potential violence that come to us,’ saiud Sessions. his includes more than just an error review but also a review of how we respond. This will include possible consultation with family members, mental health officials, school officials, and local law enforcement.

Devastating.

Absolutely unacceptable.

I could go on… but I’m too just heartbroken by this.
