| 0:00.0 | The Blaze Radio Network. |
| 0:02.0 | On Demand. |
| 0:07.0 | Love, courage, truth, glimbeck. |
| 0:16.0 | I think it's pretty obvious to everybody now that there's something really rotten in Broward County. |
| 0:20.0 | The actions of the sheriff and his deputies that arrived at Stoeman shooting is becoming more convoluted today. |
| 0:27.0 | Last night, Laura Ingraham reported that she had a source who revealed why the officers didn't initially enter the high school. |
| 0:34.0 | Listen, our sources near the Broward County Sheriff's Department are telling us that the deputies who arrived at the scene of the shooting were told not to enter the school unless their body cameras were turned on. |
| 0:48.0 | And then we found out that the deputies did not have body cameras, so they did not enter the building or engage the shooter. |

| 1:55.0 | Allegations that Mr. Peterson was a coward and that his performance under the circumstances failed to meet the standards of police officers are patently untrue. |
| 2:05.0 | That's an end of the quote. |
| 2:08.0 | Now maybe Peterson is telling the truth. |
| 2:10.0 | It's quite possible that he complied with all of his training. |
| 2:14.0 | It's quite possible that they were told not to go in with body cameras because that sounds like a political move and we all know that the sheriff now is nothing but political. |
| 2:23.0 | But if this is the case, it seems like strict adherence to the rules and regulation has cost people their lives. |
