Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) stated that protocols were not followed in the response to the school shooting in Uvalde.
On Saturday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick stated that protocols were not followed in the response to the school shooting in Uvalde, and the “policemen did the right thing at the beginning, and many wanted to go in.” He added that “the police individuals did the right thing and were brave…but it was the decision, the hold that was the mistake that did not follow protocol. It was the security officer not on the campus that was the mistake.
Co-host Pete Hegseth then asked, “Lt. Gov., ultimately, now that we do know the information and we think we know better what transpired, did the police act the right way based on what they knew? I mean, with a full appreciation of what law enforcement does, we know that, based on what you know, did they follow the right protocols to try to get those kids?”
