Yo asked why the shooter spoke Spanish. Uvalde is about 40 miles from the border and :”UVALDE, Texas – U.S. Border Patrol agents assigned to Del Rio Sector’s Uvalde Station encountered 46 smuggled migrants in the back of a tractor-trailer belly-dump rig, March 23.”
Their mayor has really ripped the immigration policy, saying his town has been flooded by the illegals.
Spanish may have been the shooter’s first language, in stressful situations, people often revert to their first language.
Pete Arredondo is the Chief of Police for the Uvalda school district. He was the incident commander for the school shooter incident. HE was the one who made the police wait...he misread the situation and thought it was a barricaded shooter, and that the ‘active shooter” part was over.
A quick search around the net finds barely a mention of him and his law enforcement position-it’s been scrubbed already. At the press conference, the guy doing the talking wouldn’t release his name. BUT, he did say it was a bad mistake on the police’s part.
