Texas legislators find responders failed to prioritise saving the lives of innocent victims while 21 were killed in school

The 77-page report reads 376 law enforcement officers rushed to the school in a chaotic scene marked by a lack of clear leadership and sufficient urgency. But the report reads that hundreds of officers from agencies that were better trained and better equipped than the school police force badly failed, too.“Despite an obvious atmosphere of chaos, the ranking officers of other responding agencies did not approach [Arredondo] or anyone else perceived to be in command to point out the lack of and need for a command post, or to offer that specific assistance,” the report reads.

“He's in the class!,” the officer told colleagues outside. “We gotta get in there! We gotta get in there, he just keeps shooting!” “No-one in command analysed this information to recognise that the attacker was preventing critically injured victims from obtaining medical care,” the report stated.
