On Friday, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting victim Anthony Borges slammed Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel and Broward Schools Superintendent Robert Runcie for failing to keep students safe, and for acting cowardly during the February massacre.
Borges’ remarks, which came during a press conference held by his family, were delivered by his attorney, Alex Arreaza, CBS Miami reported.
“To Sheriff Israel of the Broward Sheriff’s Office and Robert Runcie, the Superintendent of schools in Broward, I want to thank you for visiting me at the hospital, but I want to say that both of you failed us, students, teachers and parents alike, on so many levels,” Arreaza said, reading from Borges’ statement.
