The NYPD is working to boost security measures at city schools following a visit by department brass to the site of the 2018 Parkland, Fla., mass shooting.
“Everything was still the same – the blood is still there,” Taylor said, referring to one building that’s been preserved as a crime scene. “No kids – no one – should ever go through that.” Taylor, who took the trip with two other officers, had been invited to the school by a group of Parkland families – including relatives of 14-year-old Alyssa Alhadeff, who died during the Feb. 14, 2018 attack by Cruz that also wounded another 17 people.
Taylor said he returned from the taxpayer-funded tour intent on changing some of the city’s school security measures. The 60-something officers who man it will be monitoring alerts, alarms, cameras and anything else that happens in the buildings, so that there won’t be “one incident that takes place that we don’t know about,” Taylor said.
On Tuesday, Caban and other police officials met with Schools Chancellor David Banks to discuss how to move forward.
