being careful about what body camera and surveillance video w ws we show you. we want to be respectful of the grieving families. some videos are difficult to watch given knowing what is happening off screen. there is a lot to learn but worth mentioning had parents and families, reporters and others not demanded answers from law enforcement officials in the hours and days and months after this massacre, it s likely we wouldn t know as much as we do about what really happened in uvalde:breaking news out of texas police on the scene of a deadly shooting at an elementariry school. difficult images. for hours after the shootings in uvalde, there is chaos around the school and few details. we ve not been give b or heard reporting on a timeline. is it clear how quickly police were able to get on the scene. relatively quickly but not fast enough. i don t want to go beyond that because we don t know how quickly agents were able to respond to the scene. there s a lot of fac
hello and thank you so much for joining us, i m ana cabrera in new york. surging inflation a major investigation, and a surveillance video that is shaking the nation. we are following a lot of headlines today. first, after meticulously outlining evidence, sharing new testimony to january 6th committee said it is starting producing material for the justice department. and the panel wrapping up his latest hearing with the bombshell, president trump tried to contact a witness. we dig in. plus, there s reaction to police in action. video from inside rob elementary leaked, and we can now see exactly what police were doing as they waited for more than an hour to confront the shooter. and, inflation hits a new 40 year high and we were talking gas, food, rent, the costs are surging but by how much, and why isn t it getting better? that is where we start, cnn business reporters matt egan are with us. okay 40 year inflation high but we are seeing gas prices starting to go down, so what
