A Texas judge seated a grand jury Friday to consider possible criminal charges against law enforcement officers who failed to appropriately respond to one of the worst school shootings in history at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas, two people with direct knowledge told the Austin American-Statesman, part of the USA TODAY Network.
The grand jury is expected to consider much of the same evidence the U.S. Department of Justice reviewed before issuing a scathing report Thursday that cited widespread failures in how law enforcement reacted to the May 24, 2022, attack that killed 19 children and two teachers.
It is unclear what charges the grand jury seated in Uvalde County state district court might consider against the officers, but they possibly include child endangerment or injury to a child, the Statesman confirmed. Under Texas law, a person commits the offense of child endangerment if he or she "intentionally, knowingly, recklessly or with criminal negligence" places a child 15 or younger "in imminent danger of death."
