BuzzFeed Finds 22 More Calls To FL Shooters Home That Broward Sheriff Never Revealed

BuzzFeed Finds 22 More Calls To FL Shooters Home That Broward Sheriff Never Revealed

Holy crap. 
This could be game over for embattled Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel. 
According to a BuzzFeed investigation, there are 22 more 911 calls to the home of Parkland, Fla. killer Nikolas Cruz that were never disclosed to the public, which would bring the total to at least 45: 
 Broward County sheriff’s officials said in a statement late Saturday that they responded only to 23 calls involving suspected Florida school shooter Nikolas Cruz or his family over the years, but records obtained by BuzzFeed News show at least 45 responses since 2008. 
The number of calls made over the years involving Cruz or his family, according to the call records, are nearly twice the number publicly disclosed by the department. 
On Saturday night, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office released a statement pushing back on reports that they had been called more than the 23 incidents released by the department. 
“Since 2008, BSO responded to 23 incidents where previous contact was made with the killer or his family,” the sheriff’s office said in its statement. “STOP REPORTING 39; IT’S SIMPLY NOT TRUE.” 
The Broward County Sheriff’s Office did not respond to BuzzFeed News’ questions about the additional calls, or how it determined to include the 23 calls that were disclosed to the public, but not the others.
