  1. Even the investigation team said the police lied about the accusation.

  2. We love and hear you. I'm so sorry this extra trauma was added to your experience ❤️

  3. I really think they should protest at the police station and vandalize the station and the police cruisers and the chiefs home too that’s just horrible 😤 why are the cops so corrupt 😞

  4. After the police response to the incident they have a lot of nerve trying to blame this on a teacher when they were too scared to go do their own jobs. They're just trying to cover their tracks like they always do.

  5. Jesus please comfort this woman. How do we make excuses for evil…. That evil would and could have done whatever he/she wanted with a powerful weapon. Lord please take the pain from this lady. It had NOTHING to do with her. NOTHING!!!

  6. Just another person to blame

  7. The blame fall only on the gunman and the governments lack of action with gun control. Other countries don’t have to deal with this like we have to. Sure it has happened elsewhere but it’s happened mostly in the United States…

  8. Where is Walker, Texas Range when you need him?

  9. This shaking began AFTER the shooting? I thought that she had Parkinson's. That's pretty fucked up for law enforcement to cause her that much grief when they were the ones that fucked the whole situation up.

  10. I hope to God she gets the best attorney she can hire. DEFIMATION! UVALDE home of the COWARDS.

  11. Why was there a rock to kick away from propping the door open in the first place? What if there has been no crash and the shooter silently came upon the door being left open? This was a bad practice on someones part to begin with.

    I have no idea if she was the one who placed the rock there, but whoever did should be talked to at the very least.

    It is good she kicked it away but if it hadnt been there in the first place she would not have had to kick it away.

    Not saying she is to be vilified but whoever placed the rock there is basically endangering childrens and adults lives. You keep a rock there and who knows what it may do to the locking system over time.

  12. this is what republicans do!! blame the woman!! a woman is always the the 'FALL GUY'!! and they would cowardly let her go to prison and blame her all the way!!

  13. This isn't about a door. We shouldn't be living in a war zone.

  14. I read that the doors don’t close from the inside only the outside so you obviously you can’t get back in after. It’s easy to blame it on one solitary individual when it obviously was much more than that

  15. Platform. She's one of the killers.

  16. THIS TEACHER WAS WRONGLY DEGRADED SHE SHOULD ABSOLUTELY LAWYER UP WITH LAWYER FROM DIFFERENT TOWN , THE LAWYERS IN THAT TOWN WOULD PROBABLY BE A BIG MISTAKE FOR HER TO GO TOO ! SHE SHOULD SUE THAT OFFICER THAT HAD THE NERVE TO PUT THE BLAME ON THIS TEACHER ALL ALONG SHE WAS TRYING TO HELP PROTECT THE KIDS ! SHE NEEDS TO SUE HIM , THE MEDIA , ANYONE ELSE INVOLVED IN BRINGING HER CHARACTER DOWN ! LOOK WHAT THIS HAS DONE TO HER HEALTH , MENTALLY , I AM SO SORRY THIS HAPPENED TO HER ! THE PUBLIC EVER WHO SPREADED THIS VICIOUS LIE ABOUT HER SHOULD BE ASHAMED AND SHOULD GIVE HER A PUBLIC APOLOGY ! SHE SHOULD PUT THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION IN THE LAW SUIT FOR NOT KEEPING UP THE DOOR IN WORKING ORDER IT SHOULD HAVE LOCKED WHEN SHE SHUT IT ! THE TEACHERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO CARRY LOOK AT THE LIVES THAT COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED ! THIS UNFORTUNATELY WANT BE THE LAST SCHOOL SHOOTING ! PARENTS SHOULD TAKE THEIR CHILDREN OUT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS ! THE SCHOOL LEADERS SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR SCHOOL SHOOTINGS FOR NOT MAKING SCHOOLS SAFER THERE IS SO MUCH THEY COULD DO TO STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING ! I PRAY FOR THIS TEACHER THAT HER BODY AND MIND WILL HEAL !

  17. Thank you Ms Marin…..you are NOT at fault. You are NOT a monster. I am certain none of those who lost their lives or were injured would blame you. I am so, so sorry you had to go through this and are still going through it. Words can never fix what has been broken and I ache for you. I shake as I write this because I know the feeling of the losses that day.
    Maybe I'm not yet ready to watch these interviews. Maybe I will never be. I just know it took a lot of strength for each person who has done any of the interviews since they day. They are my heros. Uvalde is a town FULL of heros.

  18. Cops are incompetent scumbags who wait around for an hour while kids get killed. Of course they are going to point the finger and try to put the blame on anyone but themselves. This teacher probably gets paid very poorly, nothing compared to the cops that waited around in a hallway joking around. These teachers must deal with kids all day and is expendable to cops and politicians. The leaders of Uvalde will be sure to support the police because they the ones who protect from the masses. They could care less about teachers and would not have any problem with helpless teachers being the scapegoat if it takes any pressure off them.

  19. The fact that they lied on this lady knowing they had video footage from the get go is beyond me. Not only did she move the rock she pulled the lever. It's not her fault it did not lock. She is entitled to a lawsuit.

  20. we have investigated ourselves and have decided to blame someone else for our f-ups

  21. Please. They said a teacher. No names were mentioned. She isn't a teacher but a Teachers Aide. She didn't close the door properly.

  22. It's crazy how bad this shooting ended up being. The shooter had never drove a car or fired a gun before that day, but he managed to drive himself to the school and kill dozens with a rifle. In Texas of all places…I can't believe no one blew him away before he reached that classroom(s)

  23. Law enforcement was beyond a failure yet they seem to get away with all it their mistakes.
