Several Uvalde developments over the weekend: The special House committee assigned to investigating the Robb Elementary shooting released its findings on Sunday, finding widespread "systemic failures" and "egregiously poor decision making" in the police response, while the New York Times has acquired a document indicating intent by local law enforcement in Uvalde to steer the "narrative" on the shooting response more favorably. Uvalde city leaders have placed acting police chief Lt. Mariano Pargas on administrative leave as they launch an internal review. The father of one of the slain children was ejected from a private briefing and surveillance video review on Sunday in Uvalde because he "wasn't on the list". The gunman is said to have given many clues of impending trouble over the past few years, including developing the nickname "school shooter". And calls have begun for criminal penalties over the mismanagement of the response.
