The resignation announcement comes less than a week after the Uvalde City Council released the findings of the independent report it commissioned to investigate the actions of Uvalde police officers who responded to the May 24, 2022, mass shooting at Robb Elementary School. The investigation determined none of the initial five Uvalde police officers who responded to the shooting violated policy or committed serious acts of misconduct, which devastated and outraged victims’ families who attended the hearing.
Finally. Should’ve done it 18-months ago.
One of the parents said the chief took the easy way out by resigning. “Veronica Mata, whose 10-year-old daughter, Tess, was killed at Robb Elementary, said of the chief’s resignation, ‘He would rather resign than fire his friends. It was an easy way out.’ “ Absolutely sickening all around. My heart goes out to these families. They deserve better.
He does it now because the independent review came out and basically exonerated them, so now he can get a position elsewhere with a ‘clean’ record. Plenty of places hire shady police leaders because they are easier to use for fascist purposes with their heads that far up their own asses
If you strap on a uniform, you run towards danger. You signed up for special privileges, benefits and retirement in 20-years. In return you protect us with your life. That’s the fucking contract.
Armed civilians like me will run -> hide -> fight. If we continue to see that we will not be protected, fight comes first. And that’s makes for a wonderful society.
Any pig who resigns rather than face consequences should still face those same consequences but as a civilian and without any piggy job/union protections.
What consequences?
The disgrace of having to get a job in the next town over.
I thought 2022 was a typo but nope, time vortex instead
With america having all those guns and useless police im honestly suprised a parent who lost all their kids with nothing left to lose didnt go get some good ol fashioned revenge on the police for being hopeless.
