  • Families of the 19 children killed in Uvalde secured a $2 million settlement from the City of Uvalde after their officers failed to respond effectively to Texas' deadliest school shooting on May 24, 2022. They are now advocating for discipline against the DPS officers who responded. KXAN's Ryan Chandler reports from Uvalde.

    You're only giving the families 2 million yet you're also spending thousands on a memorial? How about that just goes to the families who lost a loved one and if they want a memorial for their loved ones they'll put one up themselves.

    This is sad.
    So many people were "at fault".
    Not the officers that responded the best they could in that moment.
    What about the teacher that had proped a door open that was never supposed to be left unlocked?
    What about those responsible for maintenance on that door that it failed to lock properly when the teacher finally did close it?
    What about the numerous failures of society and "the System" that did not provide intervention assistance to the shooter and his family?
    Im thinking the officers should be commended for doing the best they could that day.
    And understandably presuming there to already be no survivors in with the shooter, triaged the situation to focus on safely evacuating the rest of the school building while waiting for adequate back up to address the shooter safely.
    No law enforcement is _required_ to knowingly sacrifice their life for anyone else.
