not engage the shooter, earlier. have a listen. why was this decision made, to not go in, and rescue these children? the on scene commander, considered a barricaded subject, there is time, and no more children at risk. of course, it was not the right decision, it was the wrong one, period. parents of the victims, outraged, understandably, at these missteps. with one father, telling cnn, he wonders if his daughter, and others, may have survived if authorities acted more quickly. we now know the names, and faces, of all 21 live shot to cut short, with funerals begun next week. this is going in and lavandera picking up the story. i was misled. i am livid about what happened. explosive reaction from the texas governor, to new reactions from law enforcement response in the days of the evolving shootings. the information i was given turned out, in part, to be inaccurate. i am, absolutely, livid about that. it is imperative that they re trying to happen, and is getting d
