DOJ Cites ‘Cascading Failures’ in Uvalde Shooting Report

DOJ Cites ‘Cascading Failures’ , in Uvalde Shooting Report.

ABC reports that the Justice Department has released a scathing review of the 2022 Uvalde, Texas, mass shooting at Robb Elementary School.

The Justice Department report described "cascading failures of leadership" amid the attack, along with "several critical failures and other breakdowns.".

According to the report, those "failures and other breakdowns" occurred "prior to, during, and after the Robb Elementary School response.".

On May 24, 2022, an 18-year-old gunman killed 19 students and two teachers at the elementary school before law enforcement killed the shooter.

.

The responding officers from both state and local agencies waited approximately 77 minutes before breaching the school and killing the gunman.

ABC reports that the Justice Department launched a "Critical Incident Review" to examine the police response just weeks after the shooting.

.

That review resulted in a 575-page report that details not only law enforcement's numerous failures but also the impact of misinformation that followed the tragedy.

The extent of misinformation, misguided and misleading narratives, leaks, and lack of communication about what happened on May 24 is unprecedented and has had an extensive, negative impact on the mental health and recovery of the family members and other victims, as well as the entire community of Uvalde, Justice Department report, via ABC.

The Justice Department report described the response by those first on the scene, who retreated from the gunman, as "the most significant failure." .

Leadership ... demonstrated no urgency for establishing a command and control structure, which led to challenges related to information sharing, lack of situational statuses, and limited-to-no direction for personnel in the hallway or on the perimeter, Justice Department report, via ABC
