In response to a public-records request filed by Motherboard, a lawyer for a private firm working for the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District, or UCISD, claims that it possesses no footage taken between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on May 24, the day when a gunman killed 19 children and two adults at Robb Elementary School and hundreds of law enforcement officers stood by for more than an hour and did nothing. 

This continues a pattern of scarcely believable responses to public-records requests from various Uvalde governmental bodies. Previously, lawyers for the City of Uvalde claimed it doesn’t have to release records because they could contain “highly embarrassing information” or regard “emotional/mental distress,” and the UCISD’s lawyers responded to a request in a way suggesting they either don’t understand Texas law or the English language.
