Florida principal who wouldn'''t call Holocaust '''factual''' event is fired
In a 2018 email to a parent, William Latson said not everyone believes the Holocaust happened and he couldn't say if it "is a factual, historical event."
The Florida high school principal who caused an uproar after he told a parent that some people don't believe the Holocaust happened and refused to acknowledge that it was a "factual, historical event" has been fired.
The Palm Beach County School Board voted Wednesday to terminate William Latson's employment at Spanish River Community High School in Boca Raton effective Nov. 21.

I'm surprised, in a way, that an apparently educated adult would have this distorted view about what happened in Nazi-occupied Europe during WW2. I'm even more surprised that this statement was made in such a heavily Jewish FL community.
