I agree it doesn’t make sense unless he was shooting at her or whatever she used to prop the door got stuck.
My special ed students cleaned the cafeteria after breakfast. We propped the back door open to empty the trash cans out back in the dumpster.
The heavy doormat we used to prop the door sometimes got jammed under the door. Even though we were only about 30ft from the door, if a shooter walked up we were toast and the door was open.

There is always the possibility she was an accomplice. Remote chance, but they’ll still look at any possible connections between the two.

I recall what just happened, on the day she was supposed to retire, a female Asst. Director of Corrections aided, and conspired to help a male inmate escape. She committed suicide about 11 days later when cops cornered the pair.

A remote possibility here, but one that will still be looked at.

Twelve minute gun battle OUTSIDE the school and they couldn’t manage to at least get the classrooms locked down? Shooter just walks in a propped open outer door and into a classroom and starts killing.

In that scenario with elementary students, the weapon hardly matters. He could have killed as many with a machete.

By 11:51 a.m., 21 minutes after the first shots fired, FBI agents arrived.


Emergency calls continued through 12:51 p.m., from students and teachers, where one student at 12:47 p.m. — more than an hour after the initial shots were fired — begged for operators to “please send police now.”

I think I see the problem...

He was wondering if schools shared SRO’s. Democrat run city planning….

Lets hope that isn’t the case. But in 2022 America, nothing surprises.

Uvalde School police have 5 officers, and 9 schools (6 elementary, 2 middle, 1 HS). So there isn’t going to be a SRO at every elementary school all the time. They probably are pretty busy at the high school and middle school, so maybe 3 permanently at the upper schools, and 2 patrolling around for the 6 elementary schools.

Not busy. A Uvalde school district police was at the school and drove past the shooter. Minutes later, he was inside, pulling open a side door that should have been locked but had been propped open by a teacher who had gone outside to retrieve her cellphone.

How about ‘’criminally negligent homicide’’?

If the school was locked down and she opened a door he/she/it is responsible

The SRO was not at the school at the time the shooting. Could have made a big difference if a dedicated SRO had been stationed there and saw the crash and the shooter from the beginning.

You would avoid the “drove past the shooter” and didn’t see them problem. The SRO was responding to the 911 call. Must have been close because he was there within two minutes.
