The head of one of the largest police departments in Texas is admitting his agency failed during the mass school shooting in Uvalde.
A report says Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw is admitting his agency is one of several that failed to adequately respond to the school shooting at Robb Elementary School in which 21 people died.
State Senator Roland Gutierrez revealed an email from July 20th to WOAI-TV where McCraw said D-P-S and other law enforcement entities "must be held accountable for their actions or inactions."
McCraw noted he remains "highly critical" of the decision by Uvalde school district police officials to treat the shooter as a barricaded subject instead of an active incident.
