Department of Justice Announces Next Steps in Critical Incident Review of the Law Enforcement Response to the Mass Shooting in Uvalde, Texas

Excerpt: “The goal of the review is to provide an independent account of law enforcement actions and responses; identify lessons learned and best practices to help first responders prepare for and respond to active shooter events; and provide a roadmap for community safety and engagement before, during, and after such incidents. The assessment will examine issues including policies, training, communications, deployment and incident command, tactics, and practices as they relate to preparing for and responding to active shooter events, as well as the post-incident response. It will also include a review of survivor and victim family support and resources.” The announcement names nine individuals with relevant expertise who will be participating in the investigation.
