School shooter threatened others with a gun, first host family told police
CNN ^ | 2/22/2018 | Jose Pagliery

Posted on 02/22/2018 12:31:40 PM PST by John S Mosby

Just months before Nikolas Cruz killed 17 at his former high school in South Florida, the host family who had taken him in immediately after his mother's death warned local law enforcement that the 19-year-old had "used a gun against people before" and "has put the gun to others' heads in the past," according to records obtained by CNN. It's the latest indication of how law enforcement encountered warning signs about Cruz's violent behavior before he attacked students and teachers.....

In November, Cruz's mother died after being diagnosed with pneumonia. Lynda Cruz was a widow raising her two adopted teenage boys by herself in Broward County, according to acquaintances CNN interviewed. Without anyone to turn to after their mother's death, Nikolas Cruz and his younger brother Zachary were both taken in by Rocxanne Deschamps.....

FReepers- just putting out some ancillary bits of info that would lead one to ask questions about a whole lot more about this particular school shooting. For discussion. There are just too many coincidences and connections not to ask the questions-- at least a thorough investigator would, in the face of this renewed media "agenda" made of this terrible tragedy.

The fact this is known to CNN, which was obtained by FOIA requests--would include the ADOPTION of the two boys. And includes (unreported) Adoption agency angle--namely, The father of Cameron Kasky, the "Student host" with Jake Tapper delivering the propaganda and loaded questions. The student, Cameron Kasky, who is a theater club student. ie. a student/child actor with a father who was a William Morris Agency talent agent and later was an adoption lawyer (kid you not) and is now an adoption mediation lawyer- opens the door to much more in this widening story, bringing on the distraction advocacy on "gun control"-- the political narrative democrats are grasping as an issue to take over the House and Senate.

A possible reveal here of adoption abuse (also legally documented formerly with this father), with a connex to Russia, and hate to say it- pedophilia though it might not apply to Nikolas Cruz' adoption ( he and his brother-were both of them from Russia, keeping Russian surnames, as is customary?) At the least money for adoption, and the can of worms of open illegal immigration along with it.

The co-organizer of the "march" and a fellow actor pal of Cameron Kasky- id'd as David Hogg (whose father is/was an FBI agent)and their adult helpers putting together their fake "townhall" makes a nice tight network of "activists" imho. Very Alinsky of their leftie parents.

Nikolas Cruz was autistic, may have been adopted from Russia (scammers there and here, well known for alcohol babies and autistic children marketed).

Cameron Kasky is the son of the former VP of a major adoption agency closed for illegal scandal actions, one Jeffrey Kasky. The("activist" Cameron Kasky a child actor(with an agent- they all have them in S. Florida) , whose same said father was at one time a "talent agent" for William Morris- major tv talent agency with CNN contacts, and who was also promoting his adoption agency on Adam Walsh's show. And...the lawyer father Jeffrey Kasky started and runs a subscription tv channel.. called The Autism Channel. Can't make this up. His agency at that time (since closed) made 83 Haitian adoptions same time as hitlery and cgi were aiding and theft of non-orphan haitians from their families.

Numerous other connex- that rational people would not ignore as "coincidence". Seriously. Just a little digging by professionals might reveal quite a bit more than the distraction being directed and run by CNN.

Sued for false adoption-- Kasky VP his dad Pre of OWAS, now closed since 2014 for Congo adoption violations. As well as being a major Haitian adoption agency... during the hitlery "false adoption" scandal, and the woman involved there.

So what?

Should have been handled by the Broward Co. office and/or FBI in advance based on known info.

Family not to blame AT ALL.

Meaningless.

"Family not to blame AT ALL."

I didn't read the article as blaming the family. The point was that this family reported his gun threats to the police and the police did nothing.

Why the heck wasn't the kid arrested for that?

Does the wise-@ss Broward Sheriff has a smug answer for that?

Has the question of how he obtained the gun been answered yet?

I’ve heard conflicting stories.

Was surprised to hear that the two adopted sons of Lynda Cruz will inherit over a million dollars from her estate when it is probated.

True. CNN seems to be trying to put the blame on these people, parents with problem kids. The breakedown was in law enforcement (some 39 times apparently). And there are several other “angles” to where questions should be directed— there is a lot more to how this sick kid got to this point. And includes pharmaceutical management common to this day- ritalin? antidepressants, and possibly adoption fraud.

So odd that lefties don’t get upset about illegals shooting down people (as in Kate Steinle) but go wired out about a kid, adopted by a hispanic set of parents. Some kind of irony they don’t focus on the person (like they do with illegals) because this drives gun control.

The shooter’s surname is Cruz. That is not a Russian name.

As far as the two boys’ first names go, Zachary is not a Russian name, and “Nikolas” is the Greek form of that particular name. The Russian form, pronounce in English would be Nikolia or Nikolai (also sometimes spelled with a “c” instead of a “k” when Americanized).

The system failed on multiple levels with this kid, but no one will get fired. No FBI agent or police officer is responsible for not following up on these threats....

Outstanding flow chart. Missed this. If the adoption is proven to be abuse, or “arranged” illegally, perhaps by the dad of the “child actor” acitivist— it turns into an “operation” to secure gun banning. Speculative, yep- but it could be.

BTW. The sheriff in Broward is a leftist politician pal of debbie wasserman shultz and Sen. Bill Nelson, along with a county that is seriously flawed left wing whackos, who would NOT ever intervene in their zeal to prevent “school to jail” pipeline for their “minority” “victim” political audience (who usually are criminal kids frankly).

Have you heard about the actions of the court appointed administrator of her estate? Putting the other brother in 24 hour mental health detention, and maybe.... maybe pushing Nikolas in other regards. The photo of Nikolas putting his mother’s ashes urn in a columbarium, at a funeral no one came to— that says a lot. Doesn’t excuse, but adds another factor, along with a 3% estate administrator (presumably mentioned in Nikolas’s mother’s will, if it existed). FL is a bizarre state- very much bizarre in little NYC— Broward and Dade county.

I’m not sure the family is blameless. They knew they were dealing with a mentally disturbed individual. They should’ve pressed charges when he threatened the other boy. That at least would set up a record of violence & possibly removed his opportunity to purchase a weapon (legally, anyway.)

And yes, I am speaking from experience. I have a family member diagnosed as schizophrenic. He often had episodes of uncontrolled rage & the family finally had to have him arrested & committed. That was when they actually still had asylums for the mentally ill. Yes, many years ago.

We can certainly blame the ACLU for their actions to remove that as a possibility, but there should still be a mechanism for arresting someone with a history of mental illness for observation, & then a court hearing to find them insane & remove any weapons they might have.

Allowing these people to walk among us when those closest to them know what they are is just ridiculous.

That’s the beauty of having a government job from the janitor to Jeff Sessions, you have no responsibility, can never get fired or lose your taxpayer funded pension and healthcare. Meanwhile the rest of us get crumbs according to Nancy
