A preliminary report by the Texas House investigative committee probing the Uvalde, Texas, school shooting that killed 19 children and two teachers outlines multiple failures by several entities, including the overall law enforcement response, the Uvalde school system, the shooters family and social media platforms.
CNN has obtained and is reviewing the report, which was made available to the victims families Sunday morning. The families are expected to meet with the committee Sunday afternoon to discuss the report and its findings, which come more than a month after the committee began investigating the attack and law enforcements response.
A source previously told CNN the report was expected to focus on the facts of the attack, include a chronological sequence of events, a timeline, a law enforcement manifest, and details on the shooter. It was also expected to clarify conflicting accounts of what happened, include verbatim quotes from sworn testimony, and show that the law enforcement failure that day was much greater than one person or one agency, one source has said.
Members of the Texas Department of Public Safety, the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District police chief and officers, the district superintendent, the schools principal, a teacher and custodial staff are among those who testified behind closed doors to the committee with roughly 40 people testifying, according to one source.
