Sorry, Lee, but there were numerous things that could have been done to prevent that negligent discharge in front of a class full of children.
With firearms (like many things), one mistake can be enough. He should stop feeling sad for himself because his reputation is destroyed and start feeling fortunate that he didn't end an innocent child's life.
Gentlemen may prefer Blondes, but Real Men prefer Redheads!
Im surprised he didn't get a promotion! Oh wait, that's only if you shoot innocent women, children or men practicing their 1rst amendment or second amendment rights....
DEA Agent Who Shot Himself During Safety Lecture Loses Appeal
Submitted by Mark Berman Opposing Views on Jan 17, 2012
A Drug Enforcement Agent who accidentally shot himself while lecturing children on gun safety has lost his appeal against the DEA over the release of video of the incident.
In 2004 Lee Paige appeared at a school in Florida when he took out his gun, telling the children, “I’m the only one in this room professional enough, that I know of, to carry this Glock 40.” He then proceeded to accidentally shoot himself in the leg.

After today, it's all historical.
Sooner or later Officer Paige had to go back to the cop shop and face his brothers in arms.......
