Nineteen minutes into the video, it shows heavily armed officers in position. You can see at least one shield. Twelve minutes later, there are more shields. A total 77 minutes passed between the gunman’s arrival at Robb Elementary School and law enforcement finally killing him. "And when I looked at that video and I saw the officers who were standing in that hallway doing nothing except standing back, I was very, very disappointed," one community member said.The Texas House committee investigating the Uvalde shooting wanted to wait until Sunday when it released its final report on the shooting response.
