No. 2 FBI official addresses criticism over fumbled tip on Nikolas Cruz

The No. 2 FBI official said Thursday that he personally visited the FBI's call center this week as part of a review of how it fumbled a tip on the teen accused of carrying out a massacre at a high school in Parkland, Florida, as he addressed, in some detail, the mounting criticism the bureau is facing over its handling of the matter. Acting Deputy Director David Bowdich, appearing at a Justice Department news conference about fraud perpetrated against the elderly, said that while he could not address specific people or organizations criticizing the bureau, he was deeply concerned about his agency's public standing. The night before, National Rifle Association spokeswoman Dana Loesch had asserted during a CNN Town Hall on gun violence that she was focusing her "condemnation" on the FBI officials who did not respond appropriately to warnings about the Parkland shooter.
