DeSantis was unaware about the killing when he appointed Tony last year. Tony said Sunday that he didn’t think such a disclosure would’ve affected the governor’s decision. “You’re saying that I should have disclosed a horrific incident that I faced as a 14-year-old kid, where I had to survive a shooting,” he said. “… Why would I put myself in a position where I’m talking about a brutal attack that I survived, for the sake of an interview? I don’t think anyone would have done that.”
