DOJ Report on Uvalde School Shooting Expected to Highlight Police Failures

Long-awaited report to shed light on delayed police response during 2022 massacre, as community remains divided over accountability.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is set to release a report on the police response to the 2022 Uvalde school shooting, which left 19 students and two teachers dead.
The report is expected to highlight major failures in the police response, including a delay of 77 minutes before officers intervened.
The DOJ's review is separate from a criminal investigation by the Texas Rangers, which is being handled by the local district attorney for possible charges.
The Uvalde community remains divided over accountability for the officers' actions and inaction during the shooting.
Several officers involved in the response have lost their jobs, but many remain in their positions.
