Broward County Lawyer Sucker-Punched by Defendant in Court [Video]

Broward County, Fla., bond court is one of the more entertaining YouTube channels. The video content for each day the court is in session gives viewers a sense of how the court system operates. Even given the judges’ varied and sometimes engaging personalities, the court almost always finds probable cause for the charges in the short hearings handled via video. Judges do adjust the bond amounts downward, however, or resolve cases based on time served, however. Suspects held on serious, violent felonies sit side by side with those facing relatively minor misdemeanors. With so many defendants crowded into the main hearing room, viewers probably have wondered about security. Appropriately so, especially given the lackluster reputation of the Broward County Sheriff’s Office. read more

Will Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel Be Out of a Job by Next Week?

Laura Loomer claims that one or more internal,  anonymous high-level law enforcement sources told her that Broward County, Fla., Sheriff Scott Israel will be removed from office next week.

Loomer is the intrepid or grandstanding (depending upon your point of view) conservative journalist who has confronted Hillary Clinton and James Comey at book signings (a course of action that has become known as being “Loomered”).  You may recall that she famously rushed the stage at the Shakespeare in the Park rendition of Julius Caesar because of its Trump assassination subtext. She has also filed assault charges against Congresswoman Maxine Waters after a recent interaction on Capitol Hill.

Israel has come under extreme criticism for his agency’s failure to intervene either before or during the horrific Valentine’s Day shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla. even though deputies responded to the shooter’s home 45 times before the massacre. The FBI also failed to act despite prior warnings.

Writing at Big League Politics, Loomer claims that Sheriff Israel, a big Hillary Clinton supporter and champion of gun control, is headed to the unemployment line, and that authorities have already interviewed successors.

“According to the source, Sheriff Israel is being removed from office for criminal issues, not malfeasance, following an investigation conducted by the office of Florida Governor Rick Scott. The source exclusively revealed to Big League Politics that Sheriff Israel is also allegedly being investigated by the IRS….According to the source in the Broward Sheriffs office, Sheriff Israel’s removal revolves around a criminal matter that the FBI is aware of. Although his failures surrounding the Parkland shooting initially sparked the investigation, it isn’t the sole reason why he is being removed. The high-level source who wished to remain anonymous told Big League Politics that Sheriff Israel is already aware of the fact that he is being removed from office next week.”

Laura Loomer is set to debate Scott Israel’s lawyer later this morning on a local Fla. radio station. Check back for updates, including an audio clip when it becomes available.

Maxine Waters doesn't like it when she's harassed, just like she suggested people do to Trump supporters.
