Florida Supreme Court blocks former Broward Sheriff Scott Israel from getting his job back…
April 23, 2019
Suspended Broward Sheriff Scott Israel lost his fight Tuesday to have the Florida Supreme Court return him to duty.
Now, in all likelihood, it’s up to the voters of Broward County to return him to office — if they want him back.
The court ruled that Gov. Ron DeSantis had the constitutional authority to suspend Israel in January for his agency’s failure to adequately respond to mass shootings at Marjory Stoneman High School in Parkland and the Fort Lauderdale airport.
The decision all but ends Israel’s attempt to get his job back before the 2020 election — the Republican-led Florida Senate is able to overrule the governor’s suspension.

The email referenced “a well-documented story of highly questionable connections” between Bill Clinton and Russia.
