joining me now texas state senator roland gutierrez. his district includes uvalde. rez, good to see you. your reaction to this texas house report. >> sadly, fredricka, more of the same, right? at least in this report we don't get any more finger pointing. we get an acknowledgement that everybody screwed up here, that every law enforcement agency acted inappropriately and didn't follow their protocols. what we've seen from the department of public safety since day one has just been pointing at cops, pointing at teachers, pointing at the police and never looking in the mirror and looking at themselves. and i think the state of texas has its own responsibility to bear including the policymakers even as high as the governor's office. >> does this make you more enraged, more upset, and i wonder if that question posed to the family members, too, what are you hearing from them? >> the family members are very upset. this has been something we're not here eight weeks now and beyond. we could have known all of this through briefings in about a week's time and yet through obfus

i want to bring in texas state senator roland gutierrez, whose district includes uvalde. you're here. i have to ask you, you and i have had a conversation in the past following what you have been doing, demanding the answers. this video, unbelievable to watch. you were a proponent of making sure people saw it in full, because you understood the need for people to fully understand just what happened here. what is your reaction to this video, these moments, 77 of them? >> well, like everybody that's seen this, it's just absolutely shocking and disgusting what we saw. however, there is still a lot that we haven't seen. this house committee interviewed 20 law enforcement witnesses, 17 civilian witnesses. that's it. there was 360 cops on the scene, 91 from the department of public safety, 12 of them were in that hallway, 12 dps troopers. yet they're not on that video. you have 19 other body cams in that room and yet we only get to see one. we didn't get to see the body cam that was right outside of that room where he sheltered himself in with the kids, when he shot back at the

. >>> one of the people who is pressing for more transparency is texas state senator roland gutierrez. thank you for being with us. what are you hearing from the uvalde community whether arredondo resigning is a good step from the city council? >> my constituents have been demanding this change obviously and demanding his resignation. that said, there is much more accountability to be had here. we had 91 d.p.s. troopers that arrived. there were 12 of them in that hallway. as zack just suggested to us earlier, there are certainly people that are asking, i think mccraw had suggested he's okay to releasing the body cam as soon as the d.a. releases that information, the fact is she said she's not having an investigation as of two weeks ago. and so we're just getting so many different answers from the district attorney, from d.p.s., from the governor's office, and none of it leads to the global accountability that we need from all law enforcement into this, including the department of public safety. >> let me ask you this, senator. what can you and your constituents do in that -- in the li

joining us now is democratic texas state senator roland gutierrez.valde is part of the district that he represents. first off, thank you so much for joining us this morning on this because you've been a very important voice. so i'd like to start off this morning because this new footage, and it just feels like the more footage we have seen, i wonder if you feel like now you have a full understanding of why the texas department of public safety and other officers did not act sooner. >> well, thank you, first of all, kaitlan, for having me on. i tell you there is still yet more footage, footage that i have seen in a trailer very early on for a few moments which adds some value and i think that it shows the firepower of this type of weaponry. what this report for me does primarily is it stops pointing fingers and spreads it around to all the law enforcement agencies that were there, including the department of public safety. we have seen nothing but finger pointing from the director of that agency since day one and not only is that not right, it's not a

i am joined by texas state senator roland gutierrez. thank you very much for being with us. i have to start with your reaction to some of the findings laid out in this new report just made public this afternoon. >> well, certainly very concerned about what we've seen. a lot of it we've seen through different reports and whether it was the senate hearing or other statements that have been made in the media. at the end of the day this report is a lot inconclusive and it leaves a lot of answers still left unanswered. a lot of questions still left unanswered. so it's my hope that as we move forward in whether it's our full report of bps and what we're getting, and in chicago you're getting briefings every 30 minutes by law enforcement and that didn't happen here. >> one of the reasons why this report is so news worthy is because some of the local reporters pointed out that while police chief pete arredondo has faced a lot of the criticism for the response, it has criticism for the rank and file officers who arrived on the scene and i'd want to hear from you on that now that this

i've been speaking to texas state senator roland gutierrez.at systemic failures contributed to the delay in disarming the gunman and preventing more lives being lost. i've been saying systemic failures since day two. i didn't need a media report to tell me the system failed these kids, we had communication errors, human errors, human frailty, the kids were braver than the police that day. the local police chief, as we know, has now gone. from a suspension to resignation. does that, in any way, satisfy the need of the people you represent, some of the families and parents? it's bigger than that, it's legislation, we have to find solutions to the problem. every law enforcement agency have failed. you had the local school police being blamed by the investigating authority, our texas state troopers. then they began to blame the local police and then they start to question the sheriff's office. they need to turn the mirror around on themselves because there was 91 state offices there on scene. many of them milling around the hallway as well. this r

the state senator roland gutierrez mentioned the governor's not been back since the day after the shooting. >> right. he's been pretty silent. he's very eager to pointing the finger at others, really on any given situation, including uvalde. as the highest ranking elected official in the state of texas, i have yet to hear the governor accept responsibility for bring forward any ideas for meaningful change. he is literally someone who has only used his position to make texas less safe for its citizens and uses our resources for a political stunt. when you think about the amount of mental health funding that greg abbott has diverted in order to fund his border political stunts, we have a deeply under funded mental health system in the state of texas. when you look at how under funded rural or economically disadvantaged school systems are under greg abbott, they have very few resources. communities like uvalde, communities like el paso, school districts have fewer resources because the state hasn't stepped up. meanwhile, he's always there to politically posture and to perform for voters. you

joining me now is texas state senator roland gutierrez. thank you for being with us, sir. this report is ugly. it's frankly just ugly. nearly 400 officers on scene that day. i'm struck by how did it all break down? how was there not somebody who said, hold on, we have to get in there. they were trained. they should have known better. >> they all should have known better. unfortunately, it didn't happen. you have the police chief part of writing this manual for the school that just let everything just kind of get out of control. he does acknowledge in his own testimony at some point of this committee that he felt that other folks should have take over. he wasn't the incident commander. i have been saying this all along. they are all at fault that there is system failure from day one. human error, communications errors, no radio worked inside those schools. it is astounding to me the constant errors that evolved on may 24th. but i think it's a bigger story of neglect and it's quite frankly a story of how greg abbott has treated this community with this regard to operation lo
