What was wrong with the door? Whoever was responsible for securing that SCHOOL should be fired or worse. Why is nobody reporting on what was actually wrong with the door? Where is the janitor? Why was the FBI in Uvalde Texas? Ask the real question
I did hear that you did not do that early on, it was not said enough and you have my compassion. There was nothing that was appropriate that happen that day being reported clearly, you got caught up in that. Awful, glad you are speaking out!
I demand an immediate public apology from the Texas Department of Public Safery, to be published in all the major newspapers in the country. This woman deserves to be publicly praised for her heroic actions in the hope that that will lessen her trauma.
Sadly law enforcement never apologizes. That McCraw should be fired and denied qualified immunity. Taxpayers are gonna have pay because of his lies and incompetence.
Why was there a rock to kick away from propping the door open in the first place? What if there has been no crash and the shooter silently came upon the door being left open? This was a bad practice on someones part to begin with. I have no idea if she was the one who placed the rock there, but whoever did should be talked to at the very least. It is good she kicked it away but if it hadnt been there in the first place she would not have had to kick it away. Not saying she is to be vilified but whoever placed the rock there is basically endangering childrens and adults lives. You keep a rock there and who knows what it may do to the locking system over time.
Her or the coworker put the rock to hold the door open because she was going to help unload some things from the coworkers car. She brought a cart to use a dolly
I think it makes sense if they’re actively using the door. Effectively, there’s no difference in using a rock to holding it open with your hand. The fact that it didn’t lock is the problem. I think her physically trying to close the door was probably the issue - those kind of doors are usually designed to close on their own, using the force of the closing door to latch. Because she tried to override the closing mechanism, it didn’t secure properly. Seems like a two-door system would be better so you’re not relying on only one door to secure.
@@laurenanderson7330 No you think. It is impossible that they are "there" at the door the entire school day. What is there? A ROCK. Think. Are you stupid?

This particular door has a small hole in the bar. You need to put an Allen key in the small hole to change it from free to lock. Since it was on free there is no way she could have locked that door without an Allen key. The problem with that door you can't tell from looking at which mode it is in.
Makes me wonder if the staff has access to the wrench and just carelessly kept it in unlocked position because it is an often used door. One doesnt follow the rules and use the safety precautions awarded to them then you are allowing the proverbial fox in the henhouse.

@@Msnanamac Yes, I noticed she was shaking, clearly hurt and in pain. It must have been gut-wrenching for her to be falsely accused of leaving the door open and enabling the killer to enter the school.

She needs an attorney. The police put out a false claim against her that has ruined her mental and emotional health, maybe even left her worrying for her safety and unable to find or hold down employment. Sue them. They need to learn they can't make false reports.

The Director of DPS should be fired. He’s responsible for firing lots of Troopers doing a lot less before this shooting. Also the Inspector General personal under DPS should not be involved in this investigation especially when some of their own people have done distasteful acts during their careers.

The fact that a rock was used means that door should’ve lock when closed. The fact that people use a rock is surely against school policy. Not to blame her, but the shooter keyed in on her outside was the reason he took that route. I know had the door locked he probably would have just gone through the front door.

Society is missing the problem. It is not whether or not a door is propped open, it is a sick, twisted, and evil-minded person showed up to commit mass murder at an elem. school.

What's sick is those fanatical "back the blue" start to blame the teacher's, parents and honestly they were soon going to blame the kids. Look at "Officer Tatum" guy is a douche.
Big respect to you for your comment. That means tons!! It just shows how much misinformation and disinformation can skew things. Especially in an already emotiinally charged situation. I believe you are a good-hearted person who deserves the respect you have given. Much love and any blessings to you.
Are we still trying to assign blame it was a tragedy a lot of mistakes were made do we really need to make the parents re visit this dark day by spreading what if’s, just drop it let the family’s grieving get a chance to process this before you start making the suffer through it again.
Simply pray and forget (the republican way).. until the next terrorist shooting like the January 2023 Monterey, California Lunar New Year Celebrations.. Just pray and forget about it?
Thank you Ms Marin.....you are NOT at fault. You are NOT a monster. I am certain none of those who lost their lives or were injured would blame you. I am so, so sorry you had to go through this and are still going through it. Words can never fix what has been broken and I ache for you. I shake as I write this because I know the feeling of the losses that day. Maybe I'm not yet ready to watch these interviews. Maybe I will never be. I just know it took a lot of strength for each person who has done any of the interviews since they day. They are my heros. Uvalde is a town FULL of heros. #UvaldeStrong #StillNotForgoten #SayTheirNames #LiveLikeEllie
After the police response to the incident they have a lot of nerve trying to blame this on a teacher when they were too scared to go do their own jobs. They're just trying to cover their tracks like they always do.
Shame on her and SHAME on the cops. She didn't make sure the door was secured (doesn't matter if it was automatic door, she should have done a push test since it costs nothing to be cautious) she took off running and the shooter got in. The cops were cowards for not acting RIGHT away.
It's crazy how bad this shooting ended up being. The shooter had never drove a car or fired a gun before that day, but he managed to drive himself to the school and kill dozens with a rifle. In Texas of all places...I can't believe no one blew him away before he reached that classroom(s)
I am angry about all of this. It'll alienates people who have mental health problems as mass shooters and for her as a liar.. I felt that the initial interview broadcast was bs. It continued after uvalde and the parents were than treated as the criminal. They would have done anything including dying for their kids. that nobody on this day made any good decisions was false and to be arrested. I feel bad for the grandmother of the family who was shot as well. I pray that everyone can see potential that they all felt for these kids internally. I hope Arnulfo Reyes will find peace because he, teachers, police officers individually, grandparents more than likely replay in their mind the events that lead to this young man life and we all wish ("i hope") to be a bit kinder to those with disabilities, language disabilities, handicap, mental health conditions, or challenge(s) in general. People don't understand what i say when I speak. I had and still have the same problem as this shooter with communicating.
I feel bad for what she went through. Nobody wants to be falsely accused of anything but it makes you question the person further if there avenue is to sue!! As I said before I feel for her and knowone wants that but to have all those symptoms tells me she’s putting undue pressure on herself and that these were preexisting conditions. Again to sue…makes me questions her motives and her issues. And I sure as soon as her name went public (bc the cop never mentioned her when he said the door was left open….only a teacher) there were a bunch of scumbag lawyers in her ear telling her that she could get money and how these people should be held responsible. When they are out for a money grab and leans me toward she is as well.
I mean the door was unlocked so...we gonna get into some semantic difference between the door being unlocked or the door being propped open. Either way the door presented no barrier to entry.
You're mistaken. She did fully pull the door shut. The automatic locks were not functioning on at least 3 doors. The families just filed federal lawsuits over it. The school either disabled the locks or failed to maintain them properly. But the teacher had no fault. She pulled the door shut and thought the automatic lock was functioning. It wasn't. A classroom door's lock also failed, but a male teacher had informed the principal about that one. Hence the lawsuit. School should've checked and fixed the doors.
but the police had no barrier either! she did what she could...cops were standing there the whole time with their bullet proof vests on and more protection than the michelin man...a water fountain and mirrors to admire themselves...and pass gum to each other!! they may have well brought their lunch!!...while children were being mutilated...
@@AlcideIzMine there is alot of stuff that goes on in little town schools. Who knows. It could be one of the maintenance guys got tired of the teachers griping about being locked out so here, this is how you keep the door from having the locking device working. Here is an Allen wrench. I mean 3 doors were not locking? To me that sounds like some lacking on whomever is responsible for the doors. I can very easily see in a tiny town of Uvalde teachers propping doors open out of it being a pain in the butt to deal with and also using Allen wrenches to disable the locking devices. Probably alot more to this than meets the eye. Now, does that excuse law enforcement and their lack of action after the fox is in the henhouse? Nope. But that is a separate issue. Moral for the school? If taxpayers buy locking system doors dont prop doors open and dont disable locking devices if the latter is what possibly happened.
This shaking began AFTER the shooting? I thought that she had Parkinson's. That's pretty fucked up for law enforcement to cause her that much grief when they were the ones that fucked the whole situation up.
She was vilified?!? I didn’t hear the cop during the interview say her name once…he said teacher! I’m not a big fan of the boys in blue but I cant stand people who are out for a money grab. Lets see if thats the case 2:46
Are you dense? She's the one who they're referring to and just because they don't say her name publicly doesn't mean she won't feel shamed and unjustly guilted for it.
I read that the doors don’t close from the inside only the outside so you obviously you can’t get back in after. It’s easy to blame it on one solitary individual when it obviously was much more than that
Jesus please comfort this woman. How do we make excuses for evil.... That evil would and could have done whatever he/she wanted with a powerful weapon. Lord please take the pain from this lady. It had NOTHING to do with her. NOTHING!!!
The blame fall only on the gunman and the governments lack of action with gun control. Other countries don’t have to deal with this like we have to. Sure it has happened elsewhere but it’s happened mostly in the United States…
Point is staff and maybe students knew about the rock. The lie is that they were not propping the door. I have seen this practice in hospitals and other facilities. Smokers are often the offenders. I don't believe this teacher deserves all the blame. The door was supposed to lock and it didn't.
no the lie is that the police said she left the door propped open, she did not. She left it open because she was going right back out when she thought the shooter was actually a victim of a car crash due to a medical emergency and didn't realize what was happening. As soon as she realized, she went to shut the door properly, and she did. The lock mechanism unknown to her, did not engage properly. The cops then after pussyfooting for an hour before doing anything, tried to blame it on her.
She deserves no blame. She pulled the door shut and the automatic lock was not working. Even if she hadn't gone outside the shooter would have entered the building. The lock was not working. The door was basically unlocked. He was coming in anyways since there was no functioning lock. That's something the principal should have checked. Automatic locks should be checked periodically.
Fact is, she should not have been outside in the first place at that time. Even before the shooter arrived, the kids and the rest of the staff were already in danger. So yes, she’s partially at fault.
Too many loose ends here, closed door but it didn't lock, called police to say gunman was on the way. All I can say is God bless the families who lost loved ones.
It is just sick what the police did in this community ! Not only victims of the shooter, but other
victims from their lies. They even tried to force parents and others to NOT speak out.

Not if someone slowly shuts it. Most of our school doors have to be pulled shut.

Law enforcement was beyond a failure yet they seem to get away with all it their mistakes.
COWARDS, COWARDS, COWARDS!!! THEY ALL NEED TO BE FIRED!!! I pray for this woman to get well soon. 🙏
Vandalize and damage the police station and cars
hopefully she sues the police dept for slander
Where is Walker, Texas Range when you need him?
I’m so sorry I was one of those people 😢😢😢 I hope she feels a little better soon 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
It was good if you to acknowledge and apologize, though.
Same here.
Big respect to you for your comment. That means tons!! It just shows how much misinformation and disinformation can skew things. Especially in an already emotiinally charged situation. I believe you are a good-hearted person who deserves the respect you have given. Much love and any blessings to you.
Are we still trying to assign blame it was a tragedy a lot of mistakes were made do we really need to make the parents re visit this dark day by spreading what if’s, just drop it let the family’s grieving get a chance to process this before you start making the suffer through it again.
Simply pray and forget (the republican way).. until the next terrorist shooting
like the January 2023 Monterey, California Lunar New Year Celebrations..
Just pray and forget about it?
Thank you Ms Marin.....you are NOT at fault. You are NOT a monster. I am certain none of those who lost their lives or were injured would blame you. I am so, so sorry you had to go through this and are still going through it. Words can never fix what has been broken and I ache for you. I shake as I write this because I know the feeling of the losses that day.
Maybe I'm not yet ready to watch these interviews. Maybe I will never be. I just know it took a lot of strength for each person who has done any of the interviews since they day. They are my heros. Uvalde is a town FULL of heros.

She needs to fight for better staff training. That should be her cause!
I'm sure she's gonna sue. Get them for defamation.
As soon as we heard Steve Mc Slaw slander her we knew the cops were fibbing.
After the police response to the incident they have a lot of nerve trying to blame this on a teacher when they were too scared to go do their own jobs. They're just trying to cover their tracks like they always do.
Shame on her and SHAME on the cops. She didn't make sure the door was secured (doesn't matter if it was automatic door, she should have done a push test since it costs nothing to be cautious) she took off running and the shooter got in. The cops were cowards for not acting RIGHT away.
Even the investigation team said the police lied about the accusation.
So what she closed the door with a latch that doesn’t work, might as well have been propped open.
It's crazy how bad this shooting ended up being. The shooter had never drove a car or fired a gun before that day, but he managed to drive himself to the school and kill dozens with a rifle. In Texas of all places...I can't believe no one blew him away before he reached that classroom(s)
the police were cowards!! simple as that!!
Someone left the door open
Awful
we have investigated ourselves and have decided to blame someone else for our f-ups
We love and hear you. I'm so sorry this extra trauma was added to your experience ❤️
I am angry about all of this. It'll alienates people who have mental health problems as mass shooters and for her as a liar.. I felt that the initial interview broadcast was bs. It continued after uvalde and the parents were than treated as the criminal. They would have done anything including dying for their kids. that nobody on this day made any good decisions was false and to be arrested. I feel bad for the grandmother of the family who was shot as well. I pray that everyone can see potential that they all felt for these kids internally. I hope Arnulfo Reyes will find peace because he, teachers, police officers individually, grandparents more than likely replay in their mind the events that lead to this young man life and we all wish ("i hope") to be a bit kinder to those with disabilities, language disabilities, handicap, mental health conditions, or challenge(s) in general. People don't understand what i say when I speak. I had and still have the same problem as this shooter with communicating.
Omg so sad and some people will never know this truth. I didn’t I still questioned why she she left the door opened etc 😢smh
I feel bad for what she went through. Nobody wants to be falsely accused of anything but it makes you question the person further if there avenue is to sue!! As I said before I feel for her and knowone wants that but to have all those symptoms tells me she’s putting undue pressure on herself and that these were preexisting conditions. Again to sue…makes me questions her motives and her issues. And I sure as soon as her name went public (bc the cop never mentioned her when he said the door was left open….only a teacher) there were a bunch of scumbag lawyers in her ear telling her that she could get money and how these people should be held responsible. When they are out for a money grab and leans me toward she is as well.
Yup I called it. She’s suing!!! Shocker!!!
Wow
This poor soul 🥺😔 I hope she’s able to heal one day. She should sue that worthless cowardly police department.
I mean the door was unlocked so...we gonna get into some semantic difference between the door being unlocked or the door being propped open. Either way the door presented no barrier to entry.
the point is it was not HER fault like the police said, they tried to blame her.
Exactly. She didn't fully pull it shut. That could leave it slightly propped.
You're mistaken. She did fully pull the door shut. The automatic locks were not functioning on at least 3 doors. The families just filed federal lawsuits over it. The school either disabled the locks or failed to maintain them properly.
But the teacher had no fault. She pulled the door shut and thought the automatic lock was functioning. It wasn't.
A classroom door's lock also failed, but a male teacher had informed the principal about that one. Hence the lawsuit. School should've checked and fixed the doors.
but the police had no barrier either! she did what she could...cops were standing there the whole time with their bullet proof vests on and more protection than the michelin man...a water fountain and mirrors to admire themselves...and pass gum to each other!! they may have well brought their lunch!!...while children were being mutilated...
@@AlcideIzMine there is alot of stuff that goes on in little town schools. Who knows. It could be one of the maintenance guys got tired of the teachers griping about being locked out so here, this is how you keep the door from having the locking device working. Here is an Allen wrench. I mean 3 doors were not locking? To me that sounds like some lacking on whomever is responsible for the doors. I can very easily see in a tiny town of Uvalde teachers propping doors open out of it being a pain in the butt to deal with and also using Allen wrenches to disable the locking devices.
Probably alot more to this than meets the eye.
Now, does that excuse law enforcement and their lack of action after the fox is in the henhouse? Nope. But that is a separate issue.
Moral for the school? If taxpayers buy locking system doors dont prop doors open and dont disable locking devices if the latter is what possibly happened.
This shaking began AFTER the shooting? I thought that she had Parkinson's. That's pretty fucked up for law enforcement to cause her that much grief when they were the ones that fucked the whole situation up.
If the media actually investigated and verified before they reported all would be better off.
the camera doesn't lie!!!
She was vilified?!? I didn’t hear the cop during the interview say her name once…he said teacher! I’m not a big fan of the boys in blue but I cant stand people who are out for a money grab. Lets see if thats the case 2:46
Are you dense? She's the one who they're referring to and just because they don't say her name publicly doesn't mean she won't feel shamed and unjustly guilted for it.
I feel bad for her but all the things she attributing to it…is a little much. She putting that on herself. One sec i will search to see if she sued
👮💩👮🏻♂️
I don’t even need to see the interview and haven’t yet…but I bet she’s suing!! Lets ee 0:15
I read that the doors don’t close from the inside only the outside so you obviously you can’t get back in after. It’s easy to blame it on one solitary individual when it obviously was much more than that
This isn't about a door. We shouldn't be living in a war zone.
Jesus please comfort this woman. How do we make excuses for evil.... That evil would and could have done whatever he/she wanted with a powerful weapon. Lord please take the pain from this lady. It had NOTHING to do with her. NOTHING!!!
Why is she shaking and sitting like that?
if you watch the video she explains that near the end.
She is going through trauma. This tragedy 😢has a horrible effect on this poor lady.
Was she shot?
@@waslaughing she doesn’t have to be shot to suffer physically and emotionally 🤦♀️
Sure had Plenty of Time to Make up -up a Load of Crap!!!!!
So you signed up just to be able to make trolling comments? Congratulations.
There is nothing to make up, a picture is worth a thousand words, and in this case, there is a video. So no.
The blame fall only on the gunman and the governments lack of action with gun control. Other countries don’t have to deal with this like we have to. Sure it has happened elsewhere but it’s happened mostly in the United States…
Wake up people! This only happens in public schools!
This is happening everywhere unfortunately
@@Mila-er6ms really??? Please cite the last time this happened at a rich private school?
@@OO-nb2kt How about rich night clubs, concerts, and also parades, and government buildings, and now a maternity ward. Go troll somewhere else.
I hope to God she gets the best attorney she can hire. DEFIMATION! UVALDE home of the COWARDS.
Point is staff and maybe students knew about the rock. The lie is that they were not propping the door. I have seen this practice in hospitals and other facilities. Smokers are often the offenders. I don't believe this teacher deserves all the blame. The door was supposed to lock and it didn't.
no the lie is that the police said she left the door propped open, she did not. She left it open because she was going right back out when she thought the shooter was actually a victim of a car crash due to a medical emergency and didn't realize what was happening. As soon as she realized, she went to shut the door properly, and she did. The lock mechanism unknown to her, did not engage properly. The cops then after pussyfooting for an hour before doing anything, tried to blame it on her.
She deserves no blame. She pulled the door shut and the automatic lock was not working.
Even if she hadn't gone outside the shooter would have entered the building. The lock was not working. The door was basically unlocked. He was coming in anyways since there was no functioning lock.
That's something the principal should have checked. Automatic locks should be checked periodically.
She should sue the ass off the police department
The parents should protest and vandalize the station and the cruisers
I hope she sues.
Just another person to blame
Fact is, she should not have been outside in the first place at that time. Even before the shooter arrived, the kids and the rest of the staff were already in danger. So yes, she’s partially at fault.
But then again he could have just shot the lock off or broken a window or something like that to get in.
What do you mean? Why shouldn’t she have been outside? How and why are you placing the blame on her?
Good job trying to troll for the Uvalde police. Sick.
J Silva is an idiot
stfu you sound dumb
Too many loose ends here, closed door but it didn't lock, called police to say gunman was on the way. All I can say is God bless the families who lost loved ones.
Vote beto!!!
Ban all Assault style weapons
Sue them. Law enforcement and others. Vote out your republican politicians, they are destroying Texas!'
absolutely agree!...they brag about 'good guys with guns'...they didn't show up that day!!! that's texas bullshit...
