She screws everything with a dick. Skanks do that. Really fucking up your post reading, isn't it Rudy?
Surveillance footage shows that police never tried to open a
door to two classrooms at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde in
the 77 minutes between the time a gunman entered the rooms and
massacred 21 people and officers finally stormed in and killed
him, according to a law enforcement source close to the
investigation.
Investigators believe the 18-year-old gunman who killed 19
children and two teachers at the school on May 24 could not have
locked the door to the connected classrooms from the inside,
according to the source.

school shooting
All classroom doors at Robb Elementary are designed to lock
automatically when they are closed so that the only way to enter
from the outside is with a key, the source said. Police might
have assumed the door was locked, but the latest evidence
suggests it may have been open the whole time, possibly due to a
malfunction, the source said.
The surveillance footage indicates gunman Salvador Ramos, 18,
was able to open the door to classroom 111 and enter with an
assault-style rifle, the source said.
Another door led to classroom 112.

school massacre
Ramos entered Robb Elementary at 11:33 a.m. that day through an
exterior door that a teacher had pulled shut but that didnt
lock automatically as it was supposed to, indicating another
malfunction in door locks at the school.
Police finally opened the door to classroom 111 and killed Ramos
at 12:50 p.m. Whether the door was unlocked all along remains
under investigation.
Regardless, officers had access the entire time to a halligan
a crowbar-like tool that could have opened the door to the
classrooms even if it was locked, the source said.

grief
Two minutes after Ramos entered the building, three Uvalde
police officers chased him inside. Footage shows that Ramos
fired rounds inside classrooms 111 and 112, briefly exited into
the hallway and then re-entered through the door, the source
said.
Ramos then shot at the officers through the closed door, grazing
two of them with shrapnel. The officers retreated to wait for
backup and heavy tactical equipment rather than force their way
into the classrooms.
Pedro Pete Arredondo, the Uvalde school district police chief
and the on-scene incident commander, has said he spent more than
an hour in the hallway of the school. He told the Texas Tribune
that he called for tactical gear, a sniper and keys to get
inside. He said he held officers back from the door to the
classrooms for 40 minutes to avoid gunfire.
When a custodian brought a large key ring, Arredondo said he
tried dozens of the keys but none worked.
But Arredondo was not trying those keys in the door to
classrooms 111 and 112, where Ramos was holed up, according to
the law enforcement source. Rather, he was trying to locate a
master key by using the various keys on doors to other
classrooms nearby, the source and the Texas Tribune article said.
While Arredondo waited for a tactical team to arrive, children
and teachers inside the classrooms called 911 at least seven
times with desperate pleas for help. One of the two teachers who
died, Eva Mireles, called her husband by cellphone after she was
wounded and lay dying.
The massacre occurred two days before the start of summer break,
on the same day as a just-completed awards ceremony for the 3rd
and 4th-graders at Robb Elementary.
Days after the massacre, Steven McCraw, director of the Texas
Department of Public Safety, said at a news conference that
each door can lock from the inside and that when Ramos went
in, he locked the door. That information was preliminary, the
source said, and further investigation by the Texas Rangers has
yielded new revelations about the door.
As the investigation has unfolded, law enforcement has changed
the story of the massacre several times, adding to public
confusion over how police responded to the mass shooting.
Days after the shooting, DPS said the exterior door that Ramos
entered had been left propped open by a teacher. It wasnt. She
had closed it. And the agency also corrected early
misinformation that school police shot at Ramos before he
entered the school. No school police officers confronted him
outside the school.
DPS and Uvalde city officials have refused to provide further
details, citing an ongoing criminal investigation into the
massacre by Uvalde District Attorney Christina Mitchell Busbee.
The Texas Rangers, with assistance from the FBI, are
investigating the police response. Separately, the Justice
Department is conducting a critical incident review of the
police response.
U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-San Antonio, said he was upset by
the new details.
As more of the story comes out, Im shocked like the rest of
the country at the incompetence and dereliction of duty by
multiple law enforcement agencies who failed to save those
kids, Castro said. Im also increasingly disturbed by what
looks like an attempt to cover up the truth by state officials
and the local police department who have refused to comply with
requests to release information to the public.
State Rep. Roland Gutierrez, D-San Antonio, whose district
encompasses Uvalde, said he was unaware of the revelations about
the door. If the door was unlocked the entire time or if
police could have forced their way in regardless then people
likely died unnecessarily, he said.
If thats true, we probably could have saved three or four
extra children, Gutierrez said. The teacher possibly could
have been saved. We know two kids had gunshot wounds that they
bled out from. We know that one teacher was alive when they
pulled her out and she died on the way to the hospital.
Any law enforcement agency whose officers waited in the hallway
for more than an hour committed negligence, he said, if the
door could have easily been breached the entire time.
Gutierrez added that investigators should immediately clarify
exactly how police responded or failed to respond to the
massacre.
What were the failures? Gutierrez continued. Were they
communication failures? Were they human error failures? Were
they system failures? Or was it simply something as simple as
not turning a doorknob? We need to know that. And the fact that
they are hiding all of this information from the public and
community in Uvalde is just a tragedy.
