Everyone who stood around while children were slaughtered needs to be fired and charged with all associated crimes.
As pessoas culpadas tem que haver punicao.eram apenas criancas ja sofrendo com a maldade do mundo.tem que punir sim.uma otima noite
Assosciated crimes? Its not a crime to not do your job...you want to charge them with enabling the shooter? Why not go after the family who birth him? Yeah that makes enough sense as going after Daniel Defense
It definitely should be a crime. As a medic if I don't respond to a call I'll be fired and I'll be in court if the person dies or is cause serious harm if I didn't act. Why should they be allowed to be above the law?
@@Tallacus I believe their job is to stop an active shooter. It took over an hour for 3 officers to volunteer to enter the room and do so.
So they only took it out on the new officer
Every officer that was on the grounds that day. Should be stripped of police powers forever not even allowed to be security gaurds with a flash light.
Cowards they were and that's bad in the home of the brave, because they were the ones with authority that day and hid when the sound of gun fire erupted. Why the bullet proof vest and live fire trainings. They didn't care for those kids, sad so sad.
That’s it? Their full names need to be released!
@@Sfhakrn i agree you are right.
I absolutely agree with you!

Maybe the police leadership should be changed too if they don’t understand not to hire failures
Yes
She clearly needs to look for a different profession because protecting lil ones or other ppl is not what she is built for.
They should be fired and charged for allowing those children to be killed.
Every officer involved in that tragedy should be FIRED and never be allowed to wear a uniform again, for ANY police department nationwide.
They shouldn't be allowed to do anything remotely resembling security work.
So much sorrow, so much pain. My thoughts & prayers are with Kimberly, her husband and the other families who lost people they loved. This has to stop! Definitely corruption in Uvalde.
Is this a joke. The man standing next to her, father of Lexi was in the hallway. What's going on!!!!
The police not so tough when the other person is armed huh
I think Americans need to look at the police department and the trainings of officers over there, fire them all and start from scratch, with training that involves an exact situation like this and what should've happened instead of what did, so they can understand someone might get a bullet shot at them while entering the room but return fire and don't hesitate because it costs lives ever minute they don't respond.
Perhaps some civil unrest and the burning of the Uvalde Police Station should send a message! This is just unforgivable!
So stop it then! Unless your plan of action is from the safety net and comfort of your recliner chair, giving out recommendations.
They knew before hiring her but was hoping it wouldn't get out. You can bet on that.
She’s soo strong! Kimberly my thoughts are with you everyday . Ugh I wish I could take the pain away. 😢
Like none of them wanted to go in under no matter what was happening in the moment and save them kids? I mean really out of all those people. Fight through all obstacles in the way. One of the saddest days in our country's history.
My heart breaks for her and all the families. There is nothing to take that pain away. She’s keeping busy fighting for the future of children
we will never forget you Lexi or the other babies and teachers that lost their lives, what a beautiful little girl you were! I’m sending prayers to all the families, students and community 🤎

Honey you’re a assuming the failed abortions gender as was the reporter, and b you said an offensive term. “Babies”. The PC term as you saw me use is “failed abortions”.
Yes we will never forget you, but in a week nobody will remember you ever existed!! That is our pattern and our history. Not just talk, but facts. RUclipsrs have known of a potential school threat, they had all the warning signs, the news media and children even practiced ACTIVE shooter scenarios and drills. Everyone ignored the call, but some how people ramble on about we will never forget you. We will never forget you Lucy, and we will PROBABLY NOT forget the next group of children who are targeted. All just words
This dad (sheriff) was on scene too...he was in the hallway together with the other officers.
He can't even say anything!
Exactly. The whole story is nuts. She's hypocritical about this female cop. Um what about your husband?
@@raelene101 they both cowards
all police that refuse to do there job need to be fired, if the rest of the force says they will quit if this happens, they have said this in the past let them, then you can hire new officers not the crap they had in this town no one is going to forget this, more and more people are finding out police are not the solution to crime
I don't know...statistics don't support that.
Thank you!
First that’s just insulting to the community. To hire a cop that is under investigation for that travesty. Especially when you hear her comments of not being concerned since her child wasn’t in the school.
But secondly, is this the service these families can expect? To get rid of the first group of bad cops by just hiring from the other groups?
Pretty much tells you that the first batch of cowardly cops will be picked up by other departments.
It seems more like law enforcement is just playing a shell game. Moving various officers to different departments because they believe that the citizens concerns are invalid, and that the citizens are just that stupid that we won’t find out.
Shows just how stern the punishments for such brazen cowardice will be. Nothing!
Just 1 question tho. Why do police departments use schools as their ‘dumping grounds’ for bad cops under review? It seems if a cop has allegations against him, they end up being assigned to be school resource officers. Which makes zero sense. A cop that loses his composure while dealing with an adult and uses excessive force, that cop will not have the mental prowess to deal with a lippy teen. It’s just a setup for a bigger scandal and lawsuit.
I’m not a mother yet but I promise you I’ll risk my life any child that is in danger it’s called humanity shame on her.
The fathers silence spoke volumes. I’m in tears 🥺🥺🥺
I know these families are still very much hurting, including this family. But I've often wondered why nothing has been said about this father who was in that hallway for most of those 77 minutes. He can be seen in the school hallway surveillance footage, pretty much standing in the same spot, never making an attempt to go near the door, let alone confront the shooter because his daughter was in there. Surely his wife has seen the footage. I wonder if they've had "that" conversation. I wonder.
@@txtemptress66 He wanted to go into the classroom and save his daughter and when he was about to do that, the other officers took away his gun and forced him to stay outside.
It is obvious that this department in particular is lazy and not very smart. Sadly this is often the case. Really smart officers and local politicians etc are generally only really smart and diligent on TV. so very sorry for the children that were lost and for their families. Sounds to me that they need to start over in Uvalde.
Those people don't care,all they care about is to collect tax payers money...We are proud of you parents thats fighting these scumbags
After the comment if her child would’ve been in the school she wouldn’t have been outside. As a child care provider for years I’d hope parents would expect everyone to act on it.
Any law enforcement officer that has this mindset and/or your heart is not in it should quit now.
Looking at all of those pictures of so many victims, so very sad. It is so unbelievable that nobody even tried to save these people
Sad
How much more do these parents have to go through before someone does something for them instead of covering for the cops and the idiots on the school board. That school board should be fired and a new board elected by the parents of the children attending the school,no politics, no police and a new charter put into place. RIP the children + the teachers that died unnecessarily.
They should be sacking the idiots who hired her as well. Does nobody do background checks on police hires any more ?
All these young souls, taken away too soon. May they rest in peace. I wish their loved ones well. And I hope those responsible will face justice.
Take care of your own safety !!!! The government is not there to help you , only YOU can protect yourself !
May all those little souls RIP😪🙏🏾
Everybody person on the school district board should be fired and investigated for their inaction and their total lack of accountabilty
Welp they made one example I doubt this officer alone is to blame for everything that occurred so…
OK... I suppose it's a good thing she was fired... Dare I ask what of the other 400 present on that day? I watched the whole 77 minutes or so of that video in the hallway, in total shock, within a matter of minutes, there were at least 10-15 cops at each end of the corridor where the 2 classrooms were. Although the first ones that entered the corridor and retreated only had handguns, the next ones showed up with assault rifles, then shields, etc. And they stood by, waiting, apparently, the audio was suppressed because at a few occasions, the children's screams could be heard... And yet dozens of big burly, macho cops, equipped like they're in a war zone waited and waited... ALL OF THEM NEED TO BE FIRED! Perhaps even prosecuted for non-assistance. One 18 year old kid with an AR held dozens of well equipped and trained male police officers. I can't help but feel this cop is being scapegoated a bit... The fact that she a female officer also bothers me as she wasn't among the dozens of fully equipped male officers I saw doing nothing at each end of the corridor!!! Bet you over half of them had served in Irak or Afghanistan. I find that very troubling! Does anyone know what happened to the cops INSIDE?
EVERY police officer who was on the grounds should resign .................
Just her?? This is the first time I’ve seen that lady to be honest. I’ve look at a few different body cams etc that’s hours long. Way more people than her should be gone.
ive heard she was the person that left the door open that is supposed to be closed and locked
Wow, that cop is cruel. The corruption in Uvalde has to STOP!! She should have been fired a long time ago, along with all the other officers that were involved!!!
Someone didn't do his homework again
I won't forget her we will pray for you and your family tonight.
God bless the families and I pray that you all will have peace soon. I am so proud of the parents for standing up against a corrupt government.
This former cop is a coward. She put herself first and children died that might have been saved.
Why isnt the news following up on the accountablity of all those office present at Uvalde.
Every officer that was there needs to be fired.
They need to fire all the higher ranked officers who were in change.
My condolences to families
I'm a parent and no words can express how PISSED OFF this makes me. cowards everyone.
I still get choked up thinking about this. A day that many will remember. 🙏
I expect them to do their best at protecting my child while I’m their care !!! Looks like no one gaf…. She should be fired!!!
Lexi and all the other beautiful angels that lost their lives that day will NEVER be forgotten, this can't be "just another shooting" real change and accountability must come from this. I can't imagine her frustration and pain 🙏
But her husband was there too, while their daughter was inside he was in the hallway.
I've watched hours of Uvalde footage for answers. It was all so tragic, but let's not act like this officer is the only one at fault for the Uvalde f-up now.
I will never forget your beautiful daughter Lexi. Sending you and your husband so much love and comfort.💛
Always got to blame someone…
VOTE !! Out the useless and hold them accountable regardless of politics. Be brave USA!
Terminating her is not good enough, how dare she made that statement about her child, if being in there it wouldn’t have held her back.
she should still be accounted for as well as the school district that hired her and the law enforcements depts.
Not to be strict but every Entrance into the school should have one person Posted during class time. And that person is there to guard that door only...
We will never forget these little angels and their brave teachers. 💔 May their memory be a blessing to those who loved them and a call to action for the rest of us. Rest in peace. 🙏🏻
What is going on down there? This whole thing from day one didn't smell right.
Who is paying who?
Are they all just idiots in suits?
If I was one of the parents I would be making some noise daily...
The officers that did nothing to stop this tragedy and actually do their jobs should be prosecuted! So crazy. The district is to blame for hiring this officer w a shady record.
40% of the budget.
Cops who are not part of that community shouldn’t be policing it because clearly they couldn’t of cared less
Some officers tried to go in but were held back...either way it's a shame ..as a parent I would have been in that school.
Lexi, I promise we won’t forget you! Don’t forget about us down here. Lord have mercy on us. May we all get to enter those gates.
Not all of us want to be slaves to a space dictator bud.
@@skankhunt3624 nobody asked u
@DAVID: The ONLY way we will get to enter those gates is through JESUS CHRIST. JESUS is the only WAY, TRUTH & LIFE. Ask JESUS to forgive your sins and ask HIM into your heart, David. GOD bless you. Maranatha from Hawaii.✝️
@@skankhunt3624 HELL is a place where HE is not and THAT is your other option, Skank.
How could school district be so callus to hire her to begin with?
I hope and pray the Rubio’s marriage will survive this never ending sadness and loss.
Armed intervention using Diamond Entry teams has been a thing for many years now in many countries and should have been deployed here
Very very heart wrenching to hear from people you expect to have your back would have same exact words we wish to take place while that's their duty by law as an abiding citizen.
We will never forget her and the other victims will never forget never this is so sad 😢
Good that's the right thing and yes she shouldn't have been hired in the first place...all those officers that were there should go through the same process process. Many should be suspended and many should be fired without a doubt.
The dad is just holding all his emotions . 😢 put some worthy people to protect them kids
What is the thinking behind school districts employing their own police? How can they keep a well motivated and trained force to do anything above car park patrol and enforcing hall passes?
YES!!! CALL 👏🏻 THEM 👏🏻 OUT!!!!!!!!
What's incredibly more sickening. Is that the other officers all agreed with What that useless cop told them. Absolutely disgusting.
This is crazy
No one wants to talk about Gun reform
oh crap i forgot all about this, ive been too busy moving on with my life
3:26 IS SHE REALLY NOT GONNA LET HER HUSBAND SPEAK after he was addressed by the interviewer?? YIKES ....
I'm1:24 in. I heard the new officer was fired, twice. But I didn't hear why. Out of all the officers there that day, why her? It sounds like somebody had a take the fall.
It's already starting with bs. I don't even know if I can watch the rest of it.
IDK. Am I missing something already
So the fired officer was a school resource officer? She was hired to stand outside the school and do what needs to be done when and if anything needs to be done. Ok. What first there, first and only to be fired?
I don't care whos kids it is I would gone inside even if they ordered me not to I would give my life for any kid who's in danger anytime
ive heard she was the person that left the door open that is supposed to be closed and locked
Oh it’s true. It’s darn true.
I hope the lady from Michigan, that I met in Colorado springs at the SPC hotel didn't move there with her kids. She said she was going to because the school was better and more peaceful place. 🙏
She well spoken but her husband can't speak she must be a strong women.
Coz he was in hallway.
Remember that scene from the last Jedi when snoke drags hux and says “so disappointing “, someone should make a meme where uvalde is hux and snoke is the world
At least 15 lives could've been saved if they acted appropriately.
Shame on them
We will never forget,
Thank god she's there to protect her children but not yours.
That’s just like the US gov’t. Tell the officers they can’t enter because the department can be held liable if any kids are hurt, but blame one helpless officer for saying she’d risk her job, freedom, and life for her own just to save the corrupt government.
No. She was under investigation as a dps trooper because she was the first trooper in the hallway following the shooter and didn't bother grabbing her vest and rifle from her car. So she didn't intend on saving anyone, probably just intended on calling back up and hide somewhere. She could've ended the threat right there but cowered down and waited for others to take the initiative. Not blaming her as a person, but she had no business being a cop. So then she got suspended and was under investigation so she resigned and applied for school police job and was hired. Until they found out what she really did. It's not because of what she said on video, that was just icing on the cake
what about the other 70 coward cops that were hanging outside with her?
who the F hired her in the first place? Fire them!!
She should be in jail for the he rest of her life. Just like everyone who’s life will not be the same
When policy says 'Engage'... Those who do NOT are derelict and cowardly. My conclusion is this another example of criminal (deadly) neglect of brown and black folks during a pogrom!
I am disgusted by this.... I refuse to call her an "officer".....
Shaking My Head! Why Do they KEEP DISRESPECTING this Community?
Was she the person that left the door open that is supposed to be closed and locked to keep him out of the school.
i think she was
kim: i would go in and save my kid
department: noooo...that violates policy. you're fired
What did they want her to do? She could have gone in alone and been killed. Then her child would have been motherless. Most of these cops in the USA will not put their lives on the line. The Supreme Court has already ruled there's no duty to protect.
R.I.P LEXI YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN
#LONGLIVELEXI #LLL
Why they fire a female officer but none of those tuff men officers? Fire all to be right.
Bla bla bla. Watch the journalist acting....
All the "police officers" in who were in the school while all those kids were being slaughter should be fired and banned from being anything for the state/government.
Every single law enforcement officer there that day should be fired
so should the idot that left the door opened
Very good!
They only fired her because they got caught smh
