Two news outlets’ decision to release an excruciating 77-minute video this week showing police inaction during the Robb Elementary School mass shooting drew a harsh response from residents of Uvalde, Texas, even though they have sought this type of transparency for weeks.

The first public hearings in Texas looking into the Uvalde school massacre have centered on law enforcement blunders, school building safety and mental health.

The school district police chief criticized for waiting too long before ordering law enforcement to confront and kill the gunman during a mass shooting at a Texas elementary school did not appear at a Uvalde City Council meeting, despite being newly elected to the panel.

The 17 people injured during a mass shooting last week in Uvalde, Texas, are trying to heal in a community marked by mourning the deaths of 21 others.

Mourners gathered Wednesday at a Catholic church to say goodbye to Robb Elementary School teacher Irma Garcia and her husband, Joe.

A week after a gunman stormed into a Texas grade school and opened fire, the first of 21 funerals began Tuesday.

Tuesday should have been a day of triumph for 10-year-old Maite Rodriguez.

Jacklyn Cazares hadn’t yet reached her 10th birthday, but her father described her as a tough-minded “firecracker” always looking to help people in need.

As schools across the U.S. race to help students catch up after the pandemic, some are finding that figuring out who needs help is a challenge of its own.
