Lawmakers, families seek DOJ apology, investigation into Santa Fe High School shooting response after erroneous rejection letter

In a Monday letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Santa Fe Mayor Brandon Noto said the error was ridiculous and "shows a total disregard for the lives that were lost that day and a lack of respect for the grieving families who are left behind."

Trial for civil lawsuit filed by victims of Santa Fe High School shooting rescheduled for July

Survivors of the 2018 mass shooting near Houston, and the relatives of the 10 people who died, are seeking to hold the shooter's parents responsible in a lawsuit seeking more than $1 million in damages. The criminal case is indefinitely on hold because the accused shooter is not mentally competent to stand trial.

@DrJackBrown Not one to run from a rabbit hole, still interested that HOTTEST topic before #Uvalde? Collective hair on fire about Ginni Thomas. A mass shooting occurs, oddly not a school w/usual demographics, botched LE response, national focus changed & Ginni's off the front page. Surely not connected, but do I trust people not to sacrifice kids for 💰 & political power?

Santa Fe High School (gun control now)

I just signed this emergency petition telling Republicans in Congress that we need more than their thoughts and prayers to stop gun violence. I think you should too.
