Broward County sheriff received at least 45 calls about Florida shooter's family, not 23 :: 02/27/2018

The Broward County Sheriff's Office received at least 45 warning calls about Florida shooter Nikolas Cruz and his family over the last decade, not the 23 calls the office claims it received.

CNN reported early Tuesday that records it got from the sheriff's office showed at least 45 interactions from 2008 to 2017 about Cruz or his brother. Some of those warnings said Cruz could be a threat to the school he shot up on Feb. 14.

The sheriff's office has said it only took 23 calls about Cruz or his family. CNN said the office has not responded to requests to explain the discrepancy.

CNN said it received records showing 39 calls from Cruz's house, but the Broward County Sheriff's Office has insisted only 23 calls were received. The office released a statement insisting it was 23 calls, and said over the week, "stop reporting 39; it's simply not true."

Additional logs received more recently showed the number was actually 45 calls from the Cruz home.
