this remains one of the biggest failures in law enforcement and will for years. If you're not willing to take a bullet to save a child's life, you don't need a badge.

One of the kids that made it out alive said he wanted be a cop before that, but now he wants to be a surgeon “to help people” such a terrible tragedy

Kids are getting shot and these cops are having a meeting. This is a shame.

2:22:16 , cops asks another cop "who was shot" , other cops responds (a lady) , first cop says nonchalantly "oh OK, no officer" . That's disgusting!

All that gear, all those vehicles, all that "training", all those boots on the ground...for nothing. Amazing

"Sir, can you please put your gun down and come out?" Somebody get that cop an award for his stellar negotiation skills.

the fact that this is 3 hours should be a red flag

The 2 cops in Nashville had more balls than 300 cops here had combined. This video is infuriating.

So many men, so many guns, so little action!? God bless the mother Angelie who went in and saved her 2 boys and lead a classroom to safety from the side door. Shame on the PD for harassing her, she deserves a medal. And God bless the teachers, kids and families affected by this massacre.

90% of these guys couldn't run 10 meters without having a heart attack.

cops calling their loved ones saying " I love you" while kids are getting shot. Yeah, that's disturbing to see. It hurts me to watch this. Prayers to all the families of these children.

The first officer calling his loved one saying "i love you", and calling someone else talking about someone at the schools shooting kids, and its astonishing to me because nobody was willing to take a bullet for those pure innocent children is so heartbreaking. Those kids didnt get to tell their families "i love you" and passed away in a heinous death that they did not deserve. My heart brakes for them.

Waiting while you hear innocent children get shot when you KNOW there is only one shooter. Disgusting. Wasting time outside handcuffing parents for trying to do what the police were too afraid too.

WTF!?!? There wasn't even ONE officer willing to put his life on the line for those kids!? This is infuriating!!!

The casualty of them all standing there doing NOTHING while a mother went in to save two kids multiple times is absolutely revolting. How could they simply stand there while shits were being fired into innocent kids and teachers every time. The lack of action and how casually they were acting is DISGUSTING and they All deserve to have their badges taken. Absolutely. Sickening.

Back here after the Nashville school shooting. The differences in response are uncanny. Although both are tragic situations I cried watching each response for different reasons. One showed true heroism and courage the other.....

The police should have turned their firearms over to the public and then left. I guarantee more lives would have been saved. COWARDS!

there was 376 cops on the scene and not one of them took charge it is honestly sicking to know that the police will do anything to gunning down someone for refusing to listen to them but wont shoot someone putting children in harms way my prayers go out to all the parents of that attack to this day and furthermore.

As soldier, seeing the lack of training is disgusting. This is why I never count on the police to protect me. Firemen would’ve been more brave than these cowards. And TEXTING?!?!? Who trained these guys?!

I came back to this video after watching the response in Nashville TN. This is so embarrassing and tragic. At one point an officer said “what are we doing here?” Just ridiculous!

imagine being one of them inside, locked in there, hearing the police and hoping that they will come inside but they don't, this world sucks.

All of this while kids and teachers bleed out for 77 minutes, which to them, the poor victims, must've felt like a lifetime! The horror and torture inflicted on them is too sick for words

“We can’t go in he has an assault rifle” MF YOU HAVE AN ASSAULT RIFLE!!!

3 hours of bodycam footage for this incident in Uvalde. In Nashville the shooter was down 3 minutes after the officer got his gun out of his squad car. Every Uvalde PO should be forced to watch the Nashville response on repeat for 3 hours everyday until they can fully understand the scope of their ineptitude.

From the way the police are acting throughout this footage you would have no idea they were responding to an active shooter in an elementary school. Their sense of urgency is simply nonexistent.

As a vet it grinds my bones to see that many personnel dispatched being stagnant, especially as shots were already fired and continued to be fired. I didn’t see one ounce of training procedures utilized. Zero buddy maneuvers and breaching or clearing. That’s why your partner is watching your six. You had enough people there to cover you clockwise. Yes there is a danger to yourself, but you signed up understanding the risks and the type of path you were choosing. Especially hearing how the safe locks on these doors were abysmal or non existent. Do not call out promoting help when all you did was stand there while you gave up their position if you weren’t going to take action. Law enforcement needs a revamp up down, left to right and all around. Tragic.

This cop seems more interested in texting than finding survivors. This response would almost be comedic if there weren't 22 deaths at the end of it.

I'm here watching from the UK, as much I respect the law of your land and don't deny this isn't an easy job, this is a shameful performance after watching the response of the amazing officers in Nashville.

All those big guns, all that tactical gear, all that training for absolutely nothing. Disgusting. Rest in paradise to the children and teachers and my condolences to the families.

The lack of urgency is shocking.

376 cops and only kids they protected was THEMSELVES!!!

After watching the heroes in the Nashville shooting... the entire force should resign in disgrace

These cops aren't even fit for duty.bellies hanging out and some are on their phone. Disgusting

All those classrooms were full of children when they arrived... not ONE cop looks inside the clasrooms until 30 min in, some until 11.57.... They didn't even try to get the children out the windows on the left side of the building until some cops randomly look into the outside windows and realized there were still children in while with cops had been outside their doors on the corridor for over 50 minutes !...what a disgrace this all was :(

I wish I could give up my life so these 21 families could have their loved ones back

Imagine the level of cowardice it takes to have dozens of your buddies around, all armed to the teeth, all trained, all wearing armour and still allowing these kids to die. I hope this fact torments these pathetic excuses for men and law enforcement for the rest of their lives

Bodycam 1 18:35 They brought ballistic shield. 39:13 Child call 911, the room is full of victims. 40:00 They brought the gas. 43:56 They about to flush kids out. 44:25 I am not 100% There's bunch of informations flying around. 46:57 They are bringing another ballistic shield. 47:29 Shots fired. 47:48 Making entry in the hallway. 49:30 I am gonna try to put gas to the outside on the window. 50:46 They may be bleeding for a while. 53:50 We got windows covered. 55:30 You guys decide one guy on the radio, who is gonna be on the radio. 58:10 There is kid crawling from the room. 58:20 Hey is the Officer Ruben wife. 58:33 There's window is going to be our best bet. Bodycam 2 1:00:53 Shots fired. 1:01:05 More shots fired, 1:01:06 That's my wife classroom. 1:01:28 We gotta get in there he is keep shooting. 1:02:02 Officer bleeding. 1:02:31 Shots fired. 1:03:37 The more help the better. Bodycam 3 1:17:20 Officer Ruben: My wife classroom. 1:26:34 Teacher evacuation. 1:27:48 Kid evacuation. Bodycam 5 1:36:21 It's like a law enforcement lock jam right now. 1:43:51 One in custody 1:45:38 Shooter is in custody, Scene is secure. Bodycam 6 2:06:29 Shots fired 2:09:42 Officer asking for ballistic shield. 2:28:04 Kids coming out from the window. 2:31:53 More kids coming out from the window. 2:40:30 Officers trying to contact the shooter. I try my best. I am sorry if i misspelled something or missed important moment. My heart breaks for all involved.

If they’re not willing to risk their lives to save children, they do not deserve to wear a badge! I’m so angry and sad watching this cowards

those police officers who first responded were scary AF. There was only 1 shooter and they were acting like they were up against an army while innocent babies were being slaughtered. they had to wait for extra people to come when they had more than enough to stop the threat. shame on them

I think the most disturbing thing about this video is how a bunch of these officers are casually on their phones making non-work-related calls and texting like nothing's going on.

It’s mind blowing how they just stand there instead of actively clearing the school and trying to get the kids out.

still think about this, over a dozen officer and they stood there fully armed and didn’t move like a bunch of cowards

Y’know the cops aren’t doing their job when even the shooter is telling them to come inside. It’s laughable.

It’s hard to blame every single individual officer. But when confronted with a video like this. Where anyone of them could have caused a chain reaction if they would have just decided to step up and try, you have to blame them all. One of them could have made the difference.

Absolutely horrifying. All those big strong trained men with guns and protective vests standing around while a single guy shoots up a room full of children with no protection. How many of those kids could have been saved if any of those cops stepped up and took charge? What a disgrace. The parents would have done anything to get inside that room and save their kids.

What a bunch of clowns. They should all be fired and forced to watch how the Nashville police handled the situation for 8 hrs a day for 1 year straight.

Bro is out of breath running for like 10 seconds lmao

The constant coughing and hacking is disgusting....just imagine the fear those kids felt in those classrooms. Just imagine what the victims were doing right before they were murdered...just imagine the pain they were feeling after they were shot...just imagine the survivors having to deal with this and losing most of their friends and teachers. The world is sick and this hurts me daily.

It's not a matter of being trained right...you can't train someone to have bigger balls then a moth!! What a shame, I'd be embarrassed to know a woman half their size, unarmed, escaped their custody, jumped a fence, smart enough to listen where shooting was coming from, with no shield, and managed to save her 2 children plus one...while 70 plus officers were drinking water, and sanitizing their hands!! Ooh ya...don't forget, while children are being brutally murdered, the officers calling their spouses to tell them they love them, while children are bleeding out!! Wtf!!

Yk what gets me mad that there is kids screaming for help crying while the cops are just standing there wtf

This is insane.. All it takes is one person to lead the charge and nobody stepped up.. It’s like they were thinking “not my problem”

This is beyond frustrating and utterly depressing! From the beginning there was no tactical response or strategy. No communication, no direct orders, no one person in charge of command. It’s astonishing!Those poor children and teachers were failed in every single way. Justice for the families and friends. RIP sweet angels 🤍

I work in law enforcement for the tribes and all I can say is in ANY school shooting situation our job is to locate and ENGAGE the active shooter. The goal being to get the shooter to aim at you with all available of their ammo so they aren't aiming it at children. We may not eliminate the target but we will die trying.

Finally watching this after the Nashville incident. The absolute 180 in how these men reacted...my God. I can't believe that there is such a contrast in how these situations were handled.

Having a soon to be Kindergartner here in Nashville Tn…this frightens and disappoints me so much that I’m debating on having my daughter homeschooled. This world is foxed* up.

Warning: There were no police officers injured during the making of this video

The coughing cop wasn’t just being annoying but had officers distracted and his behavior had endless officers needing to check on him because he was behaving so anxious. None of the other cops were acting like him. He has no business being a cop.

Def would rather have Nashville PD response vs this kind of slow response to a SCHOOL shooting

This is the first post we’re 99% of people all are agreeing . You guys dropped the ball. Sacrifice your lives to save a child .

Bet you’d get more action from a traffic stop from these guys than an actual situation where action is needed.

@Law & Crime Network Thank you for releasing this.

One of the worst police responses in the history of law enforcement.

Torture... pure TORTURE for the victims. 77 minutes.. Torture, plain and simple

Cowardice and incompetence - two things any LEO can't afford to be.

What a bunch of cowards. Standing by shaking in their booties while kindergarteners are being slaughtered just down the hallway. Makes me sick

23:27 so heartbreaking. So many cowards allowed this to carry on way too long

I love that this officer called his loved ones. Something the children and their families were not afforded

This infuriates me more than literally anything ever has in my 27 years of life. Every one of those shots you hear is intended for a innocent child. How you can just sit around and listen to that is pathetic and outrageous. If I’m a parent you would literally have to kill me to stop me from going in there and saving my child. And on everything I love I’m killing anyone that tries to stop me. This genuinely makes me so upset it’s sickening. These are the people you rely on for situations like this. Then have the audacity to stop parents who are willing to do what you refuse to do? Absolutely pathetic

32:11 Dude is playing on his phone while there is an active shooter. the feck.

For 77 minutes more than 400 heavily armed police and security agents waited as the murderer brutally slaughtered 19 young children and two teachers…. The video evidence proves the matter could have been resolved in less than 10 minutes…. Young children rang 911 many times pleading for help…. And their cries for help were ignored by the police…. What kind of adult refuses to help a terrified child…. Sadly there was no coordinated leadership of any type…. Why 400 men and women did nothing for 77 minutes is beyond belief…. How these people sleep at night is beyond belief…. Heartbreaking….

Those poor parents just stood outside not knowing if they’re precious children were dead or alive, while the cops stood outside in the fu*king hall, listening to the gun shots 😢😢 My heart breaks for them all. Sending love.

Absolute cowards. No leadership whatsoever, just headless chickens. They need sacking, then prosecuting for dereliction of duty. Those poor children, I hope they rest in peace.

They might as well just went to target and had a lunch break all together so embarrassing to all other gunned forces in the us

THE FACT THEY JUST STOOD THERE AT THE DOORS NOT CHECKING AT THE BEGINNING IF ANYONE WAS INSIDE THE CLASSROOMS

I have zero experience with situations like this but something tells me that having 40 cops bottlenecked in a 6' wide hallway is a disaster waiting to happen.

What an embarrassing and atrocious law enforcement response to an active shooter. Police officer called his wife and literally said there’s an active shooter not barricaded suspect

All they needed was one proper grunt, and they could have saved the lives of several children. They are the worst cowards ever filmed.

They should've said the shooter was speeding and had Marijuana and then they would've taken it seriously

Rip to all the innocent kids and teachers🙏🏽

Police in America forget that being a police officer comes with ALOT of risk, if you're not prepared to run into gunfire to save childrens lives, DO NOT be a police officer, go work in a office or something and leave being a cop to real men.

Idk how they call themselves men let alone officers of the law!!

You let one person kill all those children while you call your loved ones and stand their doing nothing,not one man just said fck it and went to go save those children,A civilian,a Brave Woman,A MOTHER HAD TO DO YOUR OWN JOB FOR YOU,ONE PERSON SAVED MORE PEOPLE THAN YOU WHILE YOU HAD A “MEETING”

I don't understand why not a single officer didn't even try to open the door to see what was going on. All that time they spent waiting in the hall instead of saving these precious lives! Can't even comprehend as a parent.

I’ve been watching the Parkwood Florida case the past few days. The police rescued the kids within 15 minutes. These cops stood around for 90 minutes. What cowards they all are.

The whole thing could have been prevented. I can't believe there was a cop who saw the guy walking in the school with an obvious weapon, and did nothing because he didn't have permission to shoot. How could you even live with yourself??

I am truly a supporter of law enforcement but this was a disgrace!!!!!! I would think that their heads would still be hanging low!!! One 18 year old kid with a gun and all those police officers with guns! Shameful!!!!!

Not only we’re they not trained properly they were not in good health every officer needs to go through physical observations this officer sounds like he is about to faint walking from his patrol car!

I can’t believe We’re listening to an officer literally choking under pressure.

From two officers fistbumping, to one using a hand sanitiser, I feel absoutely disappointed in the Uvalde Police's tactics and motions. The officer checking his phone is very understandable; his wife had been shot, and he was checking if she was okay (getting messages from his wife). God rest all the lives taken by this tragic day.

This exactly shows that POLICE HAVE NO DUTY TO PROTECT YOU. EVEN YOUR KIDS.

Just despicable. No wonder people have no trust in our institutions.

Finally, someone decides to post the entire thing in one video!! Thank you Law & Crime Network

A bunch of them, just standing around. Asking each other what to do. While precious little ones are being taken… A disgrace to the badge. Every single one of them….

Already a bad sign that the first bodycam guy is panicking right from the start. And then I get to watch over a half hour of a big group of police officers just camping at the end of the hallway thinking the shooter is gonna come out instead of trying to push through. I guess they were waiting for shields to arrive or something? But why would they need that when there's enough cops there to use as body shields. But yeah that bodycam 1 guy was panicking wayyyy too hard to the point where it was comical, cursing and freaking out from the start to calling his wife or something thinking he's gonna die, even when he checks a room his voice is so soft and scared to announce itself, it sounded like a scared little boy calling out into the darkness afraid of monsters. Pretty sad.

I never thought I'd see the day where an entire police force gets Bystander Syndrome. Everyone knows something needs to be done, but nobody wants to step up to do it.

So disgraceful. I get that they fear for their own lives... But that's what you should be trained for.. So that you are ready to just act and trust yourself, and if you aren't capable of that then you shouldn't be in that role.. You just put lives at risk by you being there instead of someone else who is capable of acting swiftly and decisively.

the worst law enforcement in the history of law enforcement. These grown men sat around while children were being massacred. These are facts.

I know this is old last year, we’re coming up to a year, this my first time seeing this. I was definitely praying for the children and teachers. I’m truly disgusted, by the behavior of the cops, standing around like they’re waiting on a audition. Praying for the families as we approach a year. God protect our children and put officers on the police force that will serve and protect in Jesus Christ Name Amen 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Bet all those kids wanted to call their parents to say “I love you” too!! So glad the officer was able to call someone to say I love you. 🤬 As kids are being killed. Charge them all. Every one of them!! This is disgusting.

At 2:56:13 police chief Pete Arredondo can be be heard saying "People are going to ask why are we taking so long" They were working on excuses more than working on saving kids.
