“As I said, I’m the Sheriff, my name’s on the door."Lest you think that means the buck stops with the man in charge, think again. For Sheriff Israel, the buck stops virtually anywhere else.
"The people responsible are the ones who took the calls and didn’t follow up on them, as it was with the FBI, as it was with any person. Leaders are responsible for the agency, but leaders are not responsible for a person. I gave him a gun. I gave him a badge. I gave him the training. If he didn’t have the heart to go in, that’s not my responsibility.”Here's the video:
