This worthless piece of shit should be removed from any office he holds and in a perfect world "disappeared" to some black ops site for interrogation and disposal.
The federal DOJ is already investigating. As previously announced. Justice Department to investigate police response in Uvalde Police have been criticized for waiting too late to confront the gunman. 05/29/2022 https://www.politico.com/news/2022/05/29/justice-department-police-response-uvalde-00035866
Something I'm not clear on. The Chief didn't go in because he thought it was a hostage situation. But then there are reports of kids calling 911 and dispatcher's heard shots. So, did 19 police in a hallway next to the classroom not hear any shots? Or were there no shots?
The cops stood around and did NOTHING. The parents outside the school could hear the later shots. Remember it was the federal CBP tactical team that had enough of the lack of action from local police who went in on their own initiative and stormed the classroom.
Oh they heard the shots but Chief Carnac the Magnificent thought that he had a secret batman decoder ring or something that told him that when the shooter stopped firing it meant that he had switched over to hostage rather than killing mode. No one else had a secret decoder ring though, including the next round of kids that were shot.
I think it's Amercian police department training that once you have heard the clip empty, stand back and wait till they bleed out as dead is less paperwork. One can safely assume the local cops did not intend to be the talk of the whole world and inspiring this new design. It seems to be the case of their boss being unworthy of command having taken thirty years to finally get it. Peter principle etc.
Three of them were wounded (grazed by bullets) in the school and the shooter then retreated to a classroom and they were then told by their commander to stand down even though there were more shots and children screaming inside the classroom with the shooter. 911 gets phone calls from inside the room, from children, saying there are multiple victims. At that point, they should have stormed the classroom as their training dictate they should do although their training dictates that they should have stormed the shooter in an "active shooter" situation in the school when officers were first shot. Then sometime in the timeline...someone stated they needed a key to unlock the door and that they were waiting for the person (a janitor) for the key when in reality they had been told by their commander to stand down and wait for additional equipment and a tactical team. I believe most of the kids were shot in the first few minutes after the shooter gained entry into the classroom. https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/27/us/uvalde-shooting-police-response-timeline/index.html We should find out later from coroner reports if those children had immediately died or died from their wounds after bleeding out during that one hour of waiting...during a time when 17 - 19 police officers stood outside the classroom door doing nothing while listening to crying and screams from inside the room. Calling the police and their commander...cowards...is an understatement. From the images, it looked like a very old elementary school with several windows to that classroom. Police could have engaged the shooter from outside the windows or just kicked in the damn door to take out the shooter considering the police were already aware that there were victims and two of their own had already been wounded. Simply, the police knew exactly what was occurring in that classroom while they stood outside the door...just waiting. It's time for the Uvalde community / Mayor that loves hurling profanity on national TV for all to watch to fire the Police Chief although he still may be able to keep his position on the board after being elected to it. If they can't fire him...do a recall vote and put pressure on him to resign. wrbtrader
Suspect dead after active shooter incident at Tulsa hospital: Police say multiple people shot by man with rifle On Wednesday, police in Tulsa, Oklahoma reported that a gunman shot multiple people at a hospital, according to News On 6. "Multiple people were injured Wednesday afternoon in a shooting at a doctor's office in Tulsa, police confirm," said the report. "Tulsa Police were called to the Warren Clinic near 64th Street and Yale Avenue. Authorities confirm several injuries, but a precise number is not known." According to a statement issued by police, the suspect in the incident is dead. A Tulsa city councilperson confirmed that three victims are dead as well. Texas teachers protest Sen. Ted Cruz’s response to Uvalde massacre: ‘Here to teach, not to police.’ In post-Uvalde discussions of how to stop future mass shootings, Sen. Ted Cruz and other Texas Republicans have focused on school “hardening,” or making buildings more secure and arming teachers rather than limiting access to the firearms used by mass shooters. Teachers have had enough.
