“They all failed us,” said Brett Cross, who wore a button with his 10-year-old nephew Uziyah Garcia's picture. “Every single person there failed us. There were agencies fighting the parents and pushing them back. The parents weren’t cowards.'
On Monday, they were slated to hear from Uvalde ISD Officer Adrian Gonzalez; Uvalde PD Chief Daniel Rodriguez; Uvalde PD Sgt. Daniel Coronado; and DPS Trooper Joshua Bordovsky.
Cross called for Arredondo to step down from the Uvalde City Council, to which he was elected just weeks before the massacre. When a reporter asked the fire marshal why the media couldn’t wait inside the building, he said witnesses might be intimidated.“I’m not worried about the troopers or the cops being scared,” he said. “You know who was scared? All of those kids. Not just the ones who died. Not just the teachers who died. But everyone who was injured. All those babies were scared for their lives. And now we can’t be in there because they’re scared? Of what? Cameras? Phones? It’s ridiculous.
Days after the shooting, DPS said the exterior door through which Ramos entered had been left propped open by a teacher. It wasn’t. She had pulled the door shut behind her, as DPS later acknowledged. For some reason, it did not lock automatically as it was supposed to. Investigators are examining the door to find out why.
