Terrifying new footage from the recent Texas school massacre has been released by the police today.
The dramatic footage comprises 77 minutes of gut-wrenching scenes where the teenage shooting suspect carried out his terror in a classroom full of fourth-graders and their two teachers.
The chilling scenes showed how the gunman opened fire on all of the students inside, moments after he gave them a chilling warning about how they would all die.
At the moment, the US Justice Department says they are busy reviewing the police response that took place as speculations run high as to why the police chief did not let officers enter for thirty minutes, despite numerous calls being received by 911 operators about an active gunman at large.
“They never engaged the gunman quickly”- explained one witness who happened to be trapped on the premise while other reports from parents went on to add how their children bled profusely for 30 minutes and hence could have been saved if emergency response arrived on time.
The tragic footage also shows the exact moment when the cops rushed into the school building, defying the chief’s orders, and began to break down the windows so they could evacuate the children that were trapped inside.
Meanwhile, local police officers told CBP agents during that moment that they wouldn’t be allowed to enter the school’s building when they first arrived at the scene.
Again, that raised a lot of questions in so many people’s minds as to why there was so much chaos and disunity amongst the forces that should have acted as one while carrying out the rescue response.
Disturbing information showed how 20 cops waited for a good 45 minutes outside the school before engaging with the gunman. But by that time, 21 people had been killed.
During that time, the cops barricaded the rest of the victims and presumed the rest of the potential victims were already dead.
Top cop Steven McCraw says it was undoubtedly a wrong decision and there was no excuse for that. And in the end, it was the federal officers who went inside the building, defying the orders of the cops, and shot the gunman dead.
