The Department of Public Safety has finished its investigation into how officers responded to Texas’ deadliest school shooting. The agency has fired one officer and is in the process of firing another.
after a budget hearing at the Texas Capitol on Thursday that no other officers would face discipline.
Why Kindell and Maldonado were disciplined remains unclear. Ninety-one DPS personnel responded to the shooting, second only to the U.S. Border Patrol. The agency faced criticism because no DPS officer took charge of the chaotic law enforcement response, though McCraw has been critical that the school district police chief failed to do so.
A Texas House special committee investigation into the shooting faulted all officers, including those from DPS, for the disastrous response. Law enforcement waited more than an hour to confront the gunman, who killed 19 students and two teachers. McCraw has resisted calls to resign over his agency’s handling of the shooting from some victims’ families and state Sen. Roland Gutierrez, D-San Antonio, who has fiercely criticized DPS since the tragedy.
