8. That is all he did.
9. That is contrary to law enforcement training.
10. The Sheriff said it sickened him, that he should have gone in.
Based on the facts, I think he didn't do his job. It's shameful what he did. He stood in safety outside while unarmed teachers tried to protect the students.
Others are making assumptions on what he would have found or what would have happened. I do not. All I know is that he didn't do his job. If he was the sort who couldn't do the job, he should have taken a different kind of security job, where he isn't armed, so that the school could have hired someone else.
