The FBI dropped the ball in investigating Nik Cruz…<\/p>\n
..according to that noted conservative tool,\u00a0<\/a>the FBI\u02c6<\/a>:<\/em><\/p>\n The startling revelation came two days after police say Nikolas Cruz marched into his former high school and gunned down 17 people. In a statement, the FBI said it received a tip last month from \u201ca person close to Nikolas Cruz\u201d reporting concerns about him, specifically saying that he could potentially carry out a school shooting.<\/p>\n While this should have been investigated \u201cas a potential threat to life \u2026 these protocols were not followed,\u201d the bureau said in a statement.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are still investigating the facts,\u201d Christopher A. Wray, the FBI director, said in the statement. \u201cI 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.\u201dThis revelation made the Parkland shooting the third time in as many years that a mass shooter who terrorized Floridians had come to the bureau\u2019s attention beforehand. In 2016, the FBI said it had previously investigated the man who gunned down 49 people at Pulse nightclub in Orlando. Last year, authorities said a man charged with killing five people at the Fort Lauderdale airport had walked into an FBI office weeks earlier and made bizarre statements.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n These are the people the gun grabbers say we should be\u00a0trusting\u00a0<\/em>with all the power of life and death.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The FBI dropped the ball in investigating Nik Cruz… ..according to that noted conservative tool,\u00a0the FBI\u02c6: The startling revelation came two days after police say Nikolas Cruz marched into his former high school and gunned down 17 people.
