MCM - THE POLITICAL POWER OF MCM



BRIDGE COLLAPSE: Another horror — The political power of MCM

 

Before it collapsed, the glimmering, new, $14.2 million pedestrian bridge that briefly spanned 10 lanes of traffic across busy Southwest 8th Street in west Miami-Dade County was supposed to be a point of pride for Florida International University. Now it’s all rubble and horror and recrimination, a testament to hubris or negligence — or perhaps both. It’s a crime scene. And its spectacular collapse overshadowed news from yet an even bigger tragedy: the surveillance video released Thursday of the deputy who stood outside the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School building in nearby Parkland as 17 were being slaughtered by a mad gunman. Heaven help us.
