. The state agency has now sent its findings to the Texas Office of the Inspector General for further investigation, DPS spokesman Travis Considine said.Nearly 400 officers from about two dozen federal, state and local agencies responded to the May 24 school shooting. Among them were 91 DPS officers.the response found some of the officers prioritized their own safety over the lives of injured victims trapped inside classrooms with the gunman.
On July 20, DPS Director Steve McCraw sent a letter to DPS employees announcing the internal review — and issuing a clear directive that any active shooter at a school should never be considered a “barricaded subject.” “Every agency that responded that day shares in this failure, including DPS,” MCCraw wrote. “Although I remain highly critical of the decision to treat the incident as a barricaded subject by the ranking Consolidated Independent School District police official at the scene, DPS and other agencies must also be held accountable for their actions or inactions. It is clear from the evidence law enforcement should have treated this situation as an active shooter event.
