OMG
No words.
I’m going to sleep on my words. But nothing kind is at the tip of my tongue right now. I am beyond enraged.
HOLY SHIT THEY LET HIM SLAUGHTER THOSE KIDS
Omg it keeps getting worse
It’s getting worse still
The timeline is gutting
The cops’ idiocy then directly caused the death of another child. Absolute travesty. Just gutting.
completely and utterly infuriating
Fire the chief and every officer ranking officer on scene.
Prosecute the officers who assaulted the parents. Unlike the political prosecutions of officers who are just doing their jobs, this is something else entirely.
It gets worse by the hour.
Now we learn that police scanner archive audio from 11:52 am to 12:10 pm is missing. This is audio of the critical moments of course.
And now they’re justifying the cowardice that led to more children being shot and children bleeding out to death who could have been saved.
It’s nauseating.

And getting worse still.
Another piece of the puzzle emerges.
Although I have many questions about why the prosecutors office, if they know this, hasn’t prosecuted their officers for perjury, falsifying police reports, etc.
The timing is very troubling.
The Uvalde police department was very well funded and trained, specifically for school shootings. The arguments about more money and more training for this department are entirely irrelevant and out of place. You can't apply typical talking points to this situation.
Nearly 20 officers stood in a hallway outside of the classrooms - for more than 45 minutes - before agents used a master KEY to open a door and confront the shooter.
apnews.com/article/uvalde…
The on-site commander said that the children were not at risk - even though there were GUN SHOTS HEARD BY POLICE COMING FROM THE CLASSROOM.
The amount of BULLSH!T coming out of this department is unprecedented.
Greatest failure in LE response in recent US history.
The cops even lied about being shot, they just admitted that the officers were driven back by gunfire from Ramos and took cover.
They lied about everything, absolutely everything.
Greatest failure and attempted coverup in police response to a mass casualty event in US history.
Homicidal warning signs keep being revealed. His mother called him peaceful. She faces no consequences for failing to prevent her spawn from murdering other people's children.
I don't know what to make of this. Teacher recklessness? Complicity? I will wait on this one.
Absolutely heartbreaking and enraging.
Horrendous failure. Words simply cannot convey the true atrociousness of this police response.
Literally, everything the Uvalde police initially told us was a lie.
It’s like a bomb that keeps exploding. How much more willful, wanton recklessness can there be?
Gov Abbott confirms that LE gave him false information.
Another inconsistency.
Media is being told today that Fed agents waiting outside with parents barged in on their own, while today's news conference tells us that officers who were in the building but waiting outside the door eventually just used a key.
BTW Pete Arredondo is the one who made the decision to leave the kids for dead, to ignore the constant gunshots from the classroom and the cries for help.
Pete Arredondo computed cops > kids.
Why is he still collecting a paycheck?
Media found Uvalde school district police chief, Pete Arredondo, who chose to protect cops over kids.
Arredondo is a former 911 dispatcher who was elected to city council just days before massacre.
He has blood on his hands.

The most recent version of the timeline.
Uvalde police training & policies Re: active shooter.
Their response was a complete violation of policy & training.
Even if a commander made the wrong call— each responding officer chose to follow a clearly wrong order instead of doing the right thing.
Peter Arredondo, the on scene commander in Uvalde who kept his officers from rescuing children, completed an 8 hour Active Shooter Training course 6 months ago, according to public records.
He was specifically trained to differentiate between active shooter & hostage situations.
Another version of the events claims border agents breached. But we were told they used a key. So border agents waited to get a key before “breaching” by slowly opening the door? Come on. Why do none of these stories add up? Constant contradictions.
I don’t know what shocks me more— the fact that they allowed children to be executed or the fact that they concocted a coordinated lie to cover it up. And the deranged hubris to believe they would get away with it all…
Psychopath who showed the signs.
Another lie for this thread—
The shooter was outside of the school for 5 minutes instead of 12, they’re now saying.
Still, a longer period than it would have taken for police to arrive. The police were 3 minutes away without rushing, as I explored in the thread earlier.
Explanation of the first lie: Uvalde police officer lied to Texas Rangers about having engaged the shooter before he went in to the school.
Reminder that a former Uvalde prosecutor commented that lying was typical of the police department.
Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin asked the DOJ to review the Uvalde police response.
The coordinated coverup continues.
Police change the story yet again.
Meanwhile Pete Arredondo continues prioritizing his own self interest over the interest of the children and their families.
What a callous POS.
The horror
CNN did a good job confronting Arredondo
More on the shooter’s history with animal cruelty.

Watch this.
The Uvalde mom who was being detained by Uvalde police for trying to rescue her kids during the massacre but who heroically broke free and rescued her kids— is now being unlawfully threatened by Uvalde police for speaking to media. news.yahoo.com/mother-ran-tex…
The Uvalde mom who was being detained by Uvalde police for trying to rescue her kids during the massacre but who heroically broke free and rescued her kids— is now being unlawfully threatened by Uvalde police for speaking to media.
It gets worse.
Uvalde police could have stopped him even earlier.
“…heard police officers outside the classroom as a child in the next room called for help, he said, adding that he believes the officers had walked away at that point…”
abcnews.go.com/US/News/act-as…
Take a Tums before you read this.
They used kids as shields.
The Uvalde horror continues.
The Uvalde Police lies are so deep.
The Uvalde horror continues. These cops literally sacrificed little kids to a madman on a silver platter.
Pete Arredondo is a lying sack of sh!t
Here it is — the new timeline based on evidence. It exposes a mountain of lies and reveals the greatest horror of the Uvalde massacre— that police stood by and let it happen. Officers chose orders over children’s lives. texastribune.org/2022/06/20/uva…
Every police officer that I know has condemned the police response in Uvalde and is horrified by Uvalde.
The public condemnation by the head of Texas state police is correct and necessary.
Uvalde is the opposite of American law enforcement. Uvalde is like 3rd world country LE.
Arredondo is a liar. But we know this already.
The same cops who refused to rescue children and teachers also actively prevented anyone else from trying.
Loved ones were the ones who received the force of police response instead of the shooter.
Facts from my first tweet in this thread that boiled my blood vs. todays revelation.
How did you feel after todays news?
Uvalde is the greatest LE failure responding to an active shooter in US history.
The Uvalde police lies are coming from all directions. Summary:
Administrative leave for “lack of clarity” on the timeline is a rather mute way of admitting your head guy is a lying sack of sh!t.
While US media has been using Uvalde parents to push anti-self-defense agenda, this ideology isn’t shared by all parents. Some parents wish the teachers had been armed and equipped to save some of the children.
The Uvalde police response was the absolute greatest LE failure in response to an active shooter of our time — maybe in all of US history.
Videos out of Uvalde are starting to leak.
This video proves that law enforcement knew it was an active shooter scene and did not respond accordingly.
They cowered and sacrifice children to avoid harm to themselves— the opposite of active shooter training they had months prior.
The Uvalde officers were “heavily armed, clad in body armor, with helmets, some with protective shields” — yet not one of them even attempted to enter the classrooms. Not one.
How do we know it was an active shooter incident as opposed to a hostage situation and that these Uvalde cowards abandoned protocol and training to let children be slaughtered just a few feet away?
Because we have video of it.
🚨🚨🚨 The comprehensive report exposing Uvalde police failure has been released. “In total, 376 law enforcement officers — a force larger than the garrison that defended the Alamo — descended upon the school in a chaotic, uncoordinated scene that lasted for more than an hour.”
The full report exposing the Uvalde police systemic failure in responding to the elementary school shooting is here.
