Despite promising transparency, local and state officials also said release of the video showing a delayed response from police was inappropriate.
Uvalde police are again being severely berated after a newly released video shows officers stopping for hand sanitizer and to check their phones while a school shooter was locked in a classroom.
A surveillance video from Uvalde's Robb Elementary School released Tuesday has reignited outrage over the police's delayed response to the May 24 massacre in the small Texas community. Families victimized by the shooting and others surrounding multiple investigations into the massacre that left 19 children and two adults dead. Now, families as well as state and local officials have condemned the release of the video.
Javier Cazares, whose daughter was killed in the shooting, reacted with outrage along with other families,"We were supposed to get some footage shown to us on Sunday of the filming inside the hallway and then we got a call," said Cazares. Uvalde families and others reacted with outrage to a new video showing police's inaction to the school massacre in May.
