Rep. Dustin Burrows, R-Lubbock, said he intends to release the 77-minute-long surveillance footage from the hallway of Robb Elementary School. Burrows plans to release it to the family of the victims first.
An 18-year-old gunman killed 19 children and two adults at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde in May.
“It is my intention to show the hallway video to the people of Uvalde, regardless of any agreement,” Burrows said. “I will not release it to the public until the people of Uvalde have seen it for themselves.” Burrows had asked the state agency on Thursday to release the video, but a day later the department replied it was not possible, despite the shared desire to make the footage public.
