Sessions on FBI Missing Tip on Fla. Shooter: We’re Going to Review DOJ Policies

‘They all believe that we need to do a better job of receiving these signs and acting on them and following up on them better’

RUSH EXCERPT:

SESSIONS: "Yes, there clearly were and even the schools refused to let the person come in, or bring a backpack because they were concerned about it. I met with a group of sheriffs yesterday. They all believe that we need to do a better job of receiving these signs and acting on them and following up on them better. That is probably the most valuable thing we can do to stop these kind of cases. We see the recent incidents, Maria -- the grandmother who was concerned about a grand child and that appears to have been a dangerous situation that her going to the police and them acting on it may have prevented, so absolutely we’ve got to do better about that. We’re going to review Department of Justice policies and we’re not perfect either and we’re going to make sure we’re getting to the highest possible level of responding to appropriate notices of danger like probably was out there in this case."
