Mom who saved her own kids from Uvalde massacre says she’s now being harassed by police

A Texas mom celebrated for rushing into the site of the Uvalde elementary school massacre said that she is being harassed by police and had to move her children for their safety.

Angeli Rose Gomez said that she has been threatened by police and has faced increased scrutiny after she spoke to the media about how she saved her children.

In a media briefing on Sunday with her lawyer, Gomez detailed her experiences during an announcement that she was seeking to file several lawsuits over the massacre and the police response.

“The other night we were exercising and we had a cop parked at the corner like, flickering us with his headlights,” Gomez said.

She had also previously claimed that a police officer had called her and warned that she might be in violation of her probation from an arrest a decade ago if she kept speaking to the media. She only began speaking to the media after being reassured by a judge that she would not be violation of her probation.

Gomez went on to say that she had moved her children in order to avoid the intimidation and harassment from police.

“Just so my sons don’t feel like they have to watch cops passing by, stopping, and parking,” she explained.

Mark Di Carlo, her attorney, said that he was representing about 15 parents of the Uvalde community.

“The fact that [Uvalde School Police Chief] Pete Arredondo wasn’t fired immediately based upon whatever it is, hours of video, from testimonies such as from Angeli, is an indication that there is some sort of what, corruption or wrongdoing,” he said to reporters.

Gomez has been praised for her defiance of police orders in order to save her children on the day of the massacre.

She said that she had been briefly handcuffed by police who were preventing her from entering the school as the gunman was barricaded into a classroom. When she was released she hopped a fence to gain entry onto school grounds twice and saved her children.

Uvale law enforcement has faced scathing criticism over the choice to wait outside the barricaded room while the gunman continued to shoot and kill children.

I generally back the blue but this department has been fence post stupid beginning to end. If I were in this department I would be ashamed to show my face in public after their unconscionable behavior.

Not the city govt. That just means they pay with taxpayer money. Doesnt comemout of their pockets/assets.

They need to be sued individually and personally and their personal assets and pensions gone after. So they have to be the ones that actually pay. Not the citizens of the community.

That, and possibly embezzling public funds. I can’t help but think that schools are a prime place to squander tax dollars right into their own pockets.

Typical of corrupt organizations. They no longer function as designed, but function only to preserve themselves. The more corrupt they get, the more they cover their corrupt action with yet more corrupt behavior. In a death spiral, organizations like this drive out any of the good leaving only the corrupt.

Doesn’t matter the scale of the organization, from a small-town police force to the FBI, it’s the worst of human behavior.

I supposed they expected to be praised for their prudence and caution. < / sarcasm >

Police harassment of victims of the police’s grotesque incompetence.

Sounds like some people need some massive penalties in their lives.

“A platoon of SEALs wouldn’t have been able to keep my wife from our boys. Natural fact.”

The Uvalde cops were in my opinion accomplices to the murderer. The school district PD and the city PD are complicit here in retaliation against this hero mom because she made them look like the cowards they are.

Thank God for the Border Patrol guys who ignored the scumbags with badges and went in after the murderer anyway.

“I have said openly that if the officers were stopping parents from going in to save their children, as a parent, I would start shooting the officers.”

A remarkable number of people got ‘red-pilled’ by this event and have said much the same thing to me. Including a full-time LEO who lives nearby.

These Uvalde cops did massive damage to the credibility of police nationwide.

It is starting to sound an awful lot like the police chief and others saw this as a great opportunity to further the gun control agenda. What’s a little collateral damage anyway?

I don’t usually consider myself conspiracy oriented but this is acquiring a very ugly smell.
