FBI Statement on the Shooting in Parkland, Florida

On January 5, 2018, a person close to Nikolas Cruz contacted the FBI’s Public Access Line (PAL) tipline to report concerns about him. 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.

Under established protocols, the information provided by the caller should have been assessed as a potential threat to life. The information then should have been forwarded to the FBI Miami Field Office, where appropriate investigative steps would have been taken.

We have determined that these protocols were not followed for the information received by the PAL on January 5. The information was not provided to the Miami Field Office, and no further investigation was conducted at that time.

FBI Director Christopher Wray said:

“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.

“We have spoken with victims and families, and deeply regret the additional pain this causes all those affected by this horrific tragedy. All of the men and women of the FBI are dedicated to keeping the American people safe, and are relentlessly committed to improving all that we do and how we do it.”

Deputies called to suspected shooter’s home 39 times over seven years. Not even once did any deputy say to anyonei hey wait, this nut has a closet full of gun let me conflict them.

“It is now clear that the warning signs were there and tips to the FBI were missed,” Sessions wrote in a statement. “We see the tragic consequences of those failures.”

Ok so now what? 17 people where killed because someone decided to do nothing so they can keep playing around during work hours or take an early lunch break. Sounds like Ortiz.

Even with all the safe guards in place, People slip thru. It shouldn't happen but it does. There is always finger pointing after every incident. If someone is set on a course of action, it will be done. No parent should ever, have to bury their children. Yes, someone should be help accountable and it should be made that this never happens again. Holding the director responsible, would be like holding our chief responsible for what some have done to get fired or arrested. Our staff would NEVER take a hit for a officer's screw up. They will stand tall, if it a great thing a officer has done. You mess up, your on your own. Now, films of this kid, outside his home with a weapon and YET, now suddenly they come to light? Why weren't these tapes forwarded to law enforcement before this happened?

Most people are cowardly "sheep!" None of my business, they often say. Then a massacre occurs and they are the first demand answers and solutions.

The following might be too esoteric for most of you, but is -- nevertheless -- what it is: Here's a historical homicidal example, we studied, long, long ago, while pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice at FIU: Murder of Kitty Genovese, which led to Diffusion of responsibility or the "Genovese syndrome". In 2015, Genovese's younger brother, Bill, said that the police were indeed summoned twice but did not respond because they believed it was a domestic dispute, and blamed The New York Times for faulty reporting. In 1964 Domestic Violence was treated as a civil matter and not the genesis of what often results in 20% of all reported murders, but I digress. The fact is under "Diffusion of responsibility," a socio-psychological phenomenon whereby a person is less likely to take responsibility for action or inaction when others are present.
