(1) 8 months & not one elected or appointed official or investigation has focused any attention on why it took 22-mins to get @dcfireems to the scene of 2 @wmata trains colliding on October 7. Today's @MetrorailSafety report confirms the timetable but has no explanation. (more) Image
(2) WATCH: When @Fox5Wagner asked @MayorBowser about the delay 5 days after the Farragut West collision occurred, this was her answer. @MurielBowser still hasn't answered that question or addressed any of the problems at @OUC_DC that contributed to the delay. (more)
(3) @charlesallen @CMCharlesAllen is in charge of oversight for @OUC_DC. In the 8 months since the collision he has not publicly asked OUC's director or anyone else about the lost 22-minutes. An outrageous response time to an emergency & he just doesn't care. (more) Image
(4) 8 months -- almost to the day -- after the Farragut West collision there was another rail emergency. This time at Capitol Heights. Once again @wmata delayed notifying fire & EMS & no one is outraged. statter911.com/2020/06/17/new…
(5) 5-years-ago the same chaos & confusion between @wmata & @OUC_DC occurred, also leading to a 20-plus minute delay. It killed Carol Glover & injured scores of others. There was outrage then but no elected or appointed official focused on the real problem -- the delay. (more) Image
(6) @councilofdc @wmata's board, reporters & Congress focused on radio problems but missed the fact that it was time that killed Carol Glover. Time sitting & choking in a smoke-filled Metro car while ROCC & @OUC_DC wasted Glover's final minutes with their usual dysfunction.(more) Image
(7) Since no one else will say it, I will. A 22-minute response time in the Nation's Capital is outrageous. It's the same assessment I made immediately after L'Enfant Plaza & Farragut West. Not addressed at ROCC & OUC, it will lead to more deaths. (more) statter911.com/2019/10/10/com…
(8) Not one leader is willing to say this must change. Recent evidence points to it being business as usual at @OUC_DC & @wmata's ROCC. That means when your life is on the line & seconds count, you can count on OUC & ROCC taking minutes. Many minutes. Good luck.

(1) It was a chaotic & mysterious noon hour at DC 911 today. We've shared many calls where @OUC_DC dispatched @dcfireems to the wrong quadrant of the city. This is the first time I'm sharing one where they sent the call first to SE, then to NE & then back to SE. (more) #FIXDC911
(2) LISTEN: Don't know if this was on @OUC_DC or @washingtongas or both, but it took 3 dispatches & almost 30 minutes & they still hadn't determined with certainty if the reported gas leak was on 12th Street SE or 12th Street NE. (more) #FIXDC911
(3) LISTEN: At the time the 12th Street mystery unfolded another mystery played out. Who dispatched Engine 24 to a roll over in the 400 bl of Oneida Street NE? @OUC_DC claims there was no such call. A battalion chief said it was a phantom call. Lots of confusion. (more) #FIXDC911

(1) @ABC7News will @ScottTaylorTV report that today's indictments prove clearly Seth Rich was not involved in stealing of DNC emails & all those "exclusive" stories from Scott promoted fact deficient, unsubstantiated conspiracy theories? @willsommer @farhip @brianstelter
(2) Will someone at @ABC7News finally apologize for @ScottTaylorTV failing to scrutinize--as good journalists do--Jack Burkman's claim that @DCPoliceDept mismanaged the investigation? No details of what was mismanaged. No SME to give an independent view.
(3) Will someone at @ABC7News explain why @ScottTaylorTV had Jack Burkman's June 20, 2017 press conference pinned to the top of his Twitter page for more than a month and that it wasn't removed until I tweeted about it?
