Once his comments have become viral on social networks, Rockwell deleted and apologized for them on his official Facebook account of the School Board.
“A few days ago, I made a cruel and casual comment of my personal Facebook account on the post of a friend concerning the death of Hulk Hogan,” she wrote on Saturday. “I deeply regret making this comment and I since deleted. I want to understand very clearly that I have never done it and that I would never wish to harm anyone, that we shared political opinions. Although I do not agree with some of the comments that Hulk Hogan made, it is not an excuse for my comment.”
Rockwell added: “I also sincerely apologize for the way my comment has eroded the confidence in my ability to represent all the students, families and staff of the county of Alachua. I want to assure you that the best interest of our children and our public schools are at the center of everything I do as a member of the board of directors. Insensitive comment.
