Scott Israel holds news conference after being removed as Broward sheriff

Just three days after taking the oath of office, Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended the embattled two-term Broward sheriff Friday and appointed former Coral Springs police Sgt. Gregory Tony to fill the role.

Don't worry Scotty, I'm sure CNN will hire you as a "expert" pundit.

[michaelcheslock]

He is lucky he hasnt been arrested for some of the documented corruption he was involved with

[tomp]

Arrogance on steroids.

But why hasn't the FBI being held accountable, too?

[brandgardner]

he can be the sheriff of Tel Aviv...go for it Scott

[ronniegeorge]

Should have been done right after his up screw

[vernm]

Some of the 1st video after the shooting I watched, Mr Israel made his self look incompetent, didn't have answers, looked confused
He also had a lot of excuses, He didn't want to take blame or admitted fault.

[charliedebravo]

Maybe the parents of dead children take legal action against the Sherif.

[sagewanderer]

The coward of Broward County. Disgraceful excuse for law enforcement.

[Cwhy]

Now he can spend more time oops i mean hugging trees

[changvang]

He deserved to be remove from office. He can't do his job.

[laohantun]

Another jim comey... serve him right....?

[dtbrjlmd]

Too late he’s been fired. No way is he getting his job back

[rontownsend]

A real jerk, I know you Scott Israel.We can hold him responsible for the process of investigation.

[aarusty]

How could you do anything to a man with a name like that in modern day America? Drain that swamp.

[Cwhy]

Children showed more courage than this coward.

[redridergeneral]

Hey Scott, be thankful, your lucky you didnt get a double tap point blank!!

[dalek]

"YOU'RE STILL FIRED!! 💪 🐸 ♣

[kellyseeman]

Questions about his involvement in the actual shootings need to be raised. Too many things stink about this shooting and ol Scotty seems to have been smack dab in the middle of it ! Arrest him!

[clairvoyant]

Why was he 'surrounded by clergy'? Isn't he a Muslim?

[tinawhite]

He should be put in prison for murder..
