Even as outrage boils over the police response during the elementary school massacre in Texas this week, a 2019 video shows the Uvalde SWAT team conducting a successful breach — during a demo performance at an opening ceremony.
Over the past several days, disturbing revelations have resulted in heavy outcry over the response. Many of those revelations came from a
pair of wild press
conferences Texas law enforcement officials held to update reporters on the investigation into the massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas
that claimed the lives of 19 children and two adults.
At the first presser, police didn’t have much information to give to frustrated reporters, and much of what they did say was then contradicted by revelations
at the second press conference.
Much of the outrage stems from the hourlong gap between when the police got to the school and when the classroom was finally breached and the suspect was killed. During that gap, some parents were handcuffed and tased when, after pleading with the cops to do something, tried to rush into the school to save their kids — and some managed to do just that — while other cops went into the school to get their own children.
The cops are now also
claiming the incident commander thought the children “were no longer at risk” when cops were waiting over an hour to breach the classroom, even though children were calling 911 from inside the school.
It has also emerged that Uvalde police
received active shooter training just weeks before the massacre, and
details of that training show that the officers on the scene apparently ignored most of it.
But in an April 26, 2019
video taken during the opening ceremonies for the Southwest Texas Junior College 14th Annual Criminal Justice Competition, the Uvalde SWAT Team — which Texas Department of Public Safety spokesman
Steven McCraw described as a “part-time” unit
during Friday’s press conference — did manage to perform a successful breach operation.
Using dramatic strobe lights and a flash-bang grenade, the team drew a smattering of applause by subduing a pair of suspects during a demonstration in a gymnasium.
