One mom, Kimberly Mata-Rubio, her daughter Lexi wen get killed, she wen fight back tears at one odda news conference Thursday where da families from da victims wen demand accountability – an’ gun reform too – fo stop one shooting like da one dat happen at Robb Elementary.

“I hope dat da failures end today … an’ dat da local officials do wat neva happen dat day: Do right by da victims an’ survivors of Robb Elementary,” Mata-Rubio say, calling fo “terminations” an’ “criminal prosecutions.”

She also wen call out to her “state an’ federal government (fo) make sensible gun laws,” she say, “cause Robb Elementary wen start off da day wit one 18-year-old allowed fo buy one AR-15.”

Da Justice Department report, hopefully, going make moa people look hard at da police response so “not only … people in da United States but around da world going finally see how da cops wen fail bad ovah hea,” Oscar Orona, his son Noah wen get hurt, he say aftah Garland wen meet wit victims’ families fo tell dem wat stay inside da report.

Garland tell CNN in dose meetings he wen hear “huge pain — like any human would feel aftah wat happened to deir keiki an’ deir loved ones.” He add in da exclusive interview dat da families “show da pain, da anger an’ every human emotion you would expect.”

Da families stay longing fo “accountability,” say Alfred Garza III, his 10-year-old daughter Amerie Jo Garza wen get killed. “We like see people get held accountable fo wat dey neva do dat day.”

“Dat’s all dat stay left fo do.”

Amerie Jo’s grandma, Berlinda Irene Arreola, she wen feel fed up dat da authorities wen get called out in da report an’ dey stay “pointing fingers at each odda.”

“No one like take responsibility. Nobody like take accountability,” Arreola tell CNN’s Anderson Cooper Thursday night.

Da Justice Department report stay talk bout how da cops wen show up fast, but den dey wen stop once dey get close to da rooms where da gunman stay shooting fourth graders an’ teachas – one decision dat wen go against da normal active shooter response plan, wat say da cops gotta move towards da danger an’ take out any threat.

“Officers on scene should have recognize da incident as one active shooter situation an’ move an’ push forward right away an’ keep going till dey wen enter da room, an’ da threat was gone. But dat neva happen,” da report say.

Instead, da intensity wen drop wen da cops start fo treat da ting like one “barricaded suspect” situation dat no need action right away, even wen moa cops wen show up an’ da signs of danger keep growing.

Dat was da “single most critical tactical failure,” da team from da Justice Department’s Office of Community Oriented Policing Services say.

“For moa than 1 hour, from 11:37 a.m. to 12:49 p.m., dey was at least 10 ting dat happen, like at least six times da gunman wen shoot, around 45 shots wen go off near da law enforcement, an’ cops wen get hurt an’ dey wen see da victims. Any one of dese ting should have make da cops take steps right away fo stop da killing,” da report say.

“During dat time, nobody take charge to lead da response to da active shooter, nobody let da responding cops know wat was going on, nobody set up one command center, or make it clear who was in charge an’ wat da situation was.

“Some cops was confused bout why nobody wen try fo stop da shooter an’ save da keiki. Without order, da leaders from da agencies neva know da truth bout wat was happening an’ so dey neva could challenge da decisions not fo go inside da rooms.”

Da da-time School Police Chief Pete Arredondo, da da-time acting Uvalde Police Chief Mariano Pargas an’ Uvalde County Sheriff Ruben Nolasco, dey all get pointed at fo not taking da lead.
