The Uvalde City Council will vote on whether councilman and school police chief Peter Arredondo should take a leave of absence as he faces intense scrutiny.

Uvalde School Police Chief Pete Arredondo, third from left, stands during a news conference outside Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, May 26, 2022.

"The officers had weapons, while the children had none. The officers had body armor, the children had none. The officers had training, the subject had none," McCraw continued."One hour, 14 minutes and eight seconds. That’s how long the children waited, and the teachers waited, in Room 111 to be rescued. And while they waited, the on-scene commander waited for radio and rifles. And he waited for shields, and he waited for SWAT. Lastly, he waited for a key that was never needed.
