Remember The Cop Who Refused To Respond To The Parkland Shooting? His Story Just Got MORE Scandalous…

We’re all familiar with Scot Peterson, the cop who refused to confront the Parkland shooter. Now he’s receiving $8,702 in pension. Yay for him, boo for us.

It gets worse. As it turns out, that chump has a history of sitting on his hands in times of trouble. It’s so bad that parents of the victims at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School are calling for a renewed investigation.

The following incident happened four years ago.

The case involved two 17-year-old students bullying a 14-year-old freshman, with one holding down the younger boy by his ankles while the other kicked the victim, grabbed his genitals and then took the victim’s own baseball bat and began shoving it against his buttocks, simulating rape, through the boy’s clothes.

One of the nasty assailants? Sheriff Israel’s OWN SON OMG.

One of those assailants, the boy who allegedly held down the victim, was Israel’s son, Brett. Defense attorney Alex Arreaza, who represents shooting victim Anthony Borges, who was shot five times in the Valentine’s Day massacre but survived, said the case could have led to felony charges.

“He could be charged with a lewd and lascivious, and I’m being conservative,” Arreaza said.

Peterson claims in the report that it was a “simple battery” under the board’s discipline matrix, and he decided to give both of the boy’s attackers a three-day suspension.

That’s it. “Simple battery.” Nothing to see here.

“What is that? Is that like an alternative universe law?” Arreaza said. “What happens? Because you’re in the school you don’t have to obey regular laws?”

In fact, the disciplinary matrix includes “sexual misconduct” and “serious” battery, both of which, arguably, apply in this case.

“You will never see somebody grabbing somebody’s crotch and poking some kid in the butt with a bat and getting a simple battery for it,” Arreaza said when asked if he believed the sheriff’s son received preferential treatment.

He obviously did. Israel’s son got special treatment, and Peterson made it happen.

What a couple of crooked tools.

Pollack also said he believed Peterson’s handling of the incident may have provided Peterson job security at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

“[Peterson] was lazy and this could have given him protection to keep his job at the school during those four years,” Pollack said.

In a written statement, Borges’ father, Royer Borges, said, “Maybe if Deputy Peterson would have been made to answer for this, he may have been replaced by a more competent deputy.”

Maybe.

Peterson noted in his report that the victim’s parents were notified of the discipline and “did not request additional law enforcement action.” The mother of the victim confirmed this to Local 10, saying the family members only wanted to put the matter behind them and that her son had made peace with the sheriff’s son.

Doesn’t matter. Either way, Peterson only reported it as simple battery.

I smell something fishy. That’s Sheriff Israel’s department for you. But by all means. Continue to scream about law-abiding gun owners.
