What new footage of the Uvalde shooting recording tells us about ... (WBFO)

New surveillance footage shows every minute of what police did as they delayed more than an hour to enter a classroom and kill the gunman.

Kimberly Rubio, whose daughter Lexi was killed, wrote on Facebook that the world saw in that video a person shooting at a door, but she saw and heard the man who was murdering her 10-year-old daughter. Last night I spoke with a man who was standing on the side of the road carrying a sign that said in part that Uvalde police are cowards. But it is the first visual evidence we have of the bungled police response essentially in its entirety. We also see within about three minutes the first police officers arriving and approaching that classroom door, but then running to take cover as the gunman shoots through the door. FLORIDO: You know, there's no huge new revelations in this video because a lot of what we know happened had been reported before this video was released yesterday. This is mostly video from the security camera inside that school hallway, along with some video from outside the school.

"I think everyone in that hallway should reconsider their career choice," he said. So far, officials have only publicly confirmed one officer on leave: Pete Arredondo, the Uvalde school district police chief who also stepped down from his newly won City Council seat last month. But he said officers who fail to meet their "moral duty to intervene" could still face ridicule or firing. Legal experts have called that an extremely rare case of someone essentially being charged for not going into harm's way and have expressed skepticism about the case, which is set for trial in February. That's just one example of inaccurate and conflicting statements given by authorities in the seven weeks since the shooting. More than a dozen officers -- some armed with rifles and bulletproof shields -- are visible during some points of the video. Police are afforded formidable legal protections, set up with the idea that their jobs often require life-and-death judgement calls under great pressure. City and state leaders have urged people to let investigations play out.
