this would have been a lot worse. fortunately the police response was swift. they were able to neutralize her very, very quickly, which is what you re trained to do, and as a result, i think they did save lives, so unfortunately, we lost six. sadly indeed. and chief ramsey walk us through how investigators will now try to determine an actual motive. well you know, sometimes you never find the motive, so i think it s important to mention that but one of the things that one there was a vehicle there. apparently that they re searching. there may have been something in the vehicle. uh her residents, they ll search that, but more importantly, they ll go on social media because usually that s where in today s world, that s where you tend to find. information that would indicate the why, if she was, in fact a former student does she have some kind of grudge? some kind of beef with someone who works there. i mean, she s 28 years old, so she would have attended
15 20 years ago. so i doubt if that s a connection, but maybe somebody who works there something that drove her there in order to be able to commit a crime. uh or the crime that she committed where these folks targeted? uh you know, when you look at the video, they ll be looking to say one how she made entry because the door was supposedly locked. but then did she go directly to a particular place? in other words, it looked like she was on a mission. she knew exactly where she s going. did she pass anybody up that she did not injure? i mean, we don t know the answer to any of that. but that s all part of the investigation. and steve this swift police response that we saw today stands in stark contrast to what we saw last year when a gunman killed 21 people, including 19 children in uvalde, texas. how do these situations compare in your view ? yeah, i think that s exactly right. an important point. because the lack of immediate action from the responders and nobody waiting for upwards o
something that they re going to continue to dissect and to really go into. they don t have a motive yet, but apparently they re on track to find one through some of the writings that they found. as they ve gone through the home or the vehicle that she was driving at the time, so they apparently have gotten a lot of information about they re in the process of trying to confirm a lot of that before they release it publicly , but i do believe they have an awful lot of information and we ll be able to conclude exactly what took place at some point. significant do you think chief ramsey the video that they re going to be releasing either tonight or tomorrow will be to understand how this all unfolded. well, certainly it will add to understanding what actually took place. i don t know if that s camera from inside the school. are we talking about body worn cameras and so forth, but it definitely
like assault weapons where large numbers of people could be killed very, very quickly within seconds, and so the loss of life just fortunate that it s only six as opposed to what it could have been 39 year old kids and 3 60 60 year old adults shot and murdered for no reason at all. steve grotowski. you re an expert on gun policy. it s an incredibly rare correct me if i m wrong for a woman to perpetrate a mass shooting like this. what do you make of these unique details of this case at least thus far. yeah that s exactly right. according to the gun, the violence project, which uh, looks at shootings where four more people were killed in public only four shooters since 1966 have been female. in those circumstances. this is incredibly rare situation to have someone like this. target the school now we re hearing she has a connection to the school that s more common to hear in these sorts of situations. but the fact that she this was a woman is something that will
