Dana Loesch, parents and a fellow officer RIP deputy Scot Peterson's first interview (And what's up with that headline, CNN?)

Deputy Scot Peterson, the school resource officer who resigned after the February 14 attack at Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS in Parkland, FL, gave his first interview to the Washington Post and it’s … not good.

Although he does express remorse that his inaction caused deaths, he’s still spinning things to paint himself in the most positive light and trying to get folks to feel sorry for him.

Like how he questions why people say he “did nothing”:

From Fox News:

“How can they keep saying I did nothing?” he recalled saying to his girlfriend one morning after the shooting. “I’m getting on the radio to call in the shooting. I’m locking down the school. I’m clearing kids out of the courtyard. They have the video and the call logs. The evidence is sitting right there.”

And check out how CNN is spinning his remorse:

WTF is up with the headline, CNN?

Scot Peterson is not a victim, CNN

— Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) June 5, 2018

This piece, which desperately tries to paint Peterson as a victim, is infuriating.

His job was to protect those kids, instead he left them defenseless. He should be haunted by it for the rest of his life. I know the families of the kids who died due to his inaction will be. https://t.co/9i6RMImCFO

Savannah Guthrie: "So your dispatcher, nobody's giving you any information."

Scot Peterson: "No intel. No real time intelligence whatsoever."

Guthrie: "About a shooter inside the building."

Peterson: "Inside the building or– even at the school, exactly." https://t.co/BFcWDShbke

Um, how exactly would the dispatcher be able to give him accurate information about an ongoing school shooting?

The NRA’s Dana Loesch, thankfully, called Peterson out on his spin:

“I’m sure [Scot Peterson] is haunted. And he should be. Cause this is what he was trained to do. And he can claim he didn’t ‘find’ the shooter as much as he likes but the fact is we’ve all seen the video. He didn’t ‘not find’ him. He didn’t look for him.” – @DLoesch #Relentless pic.twitter.com/GO9IgiazfS

As have the Parkland parents, calling his interview “crap”:

And a fellow sheriff’s deputy as called him out as well:

"It's shameful to listen to the words that he is speaking today."
