Harrowing email shines light on Uvalde school shooting
The Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District has released over 1,500 pages of new files regarding the May 2022 Robb Elementary School mass shooting.
The documents include details on the gunman, Salvador Ramos, revealing his decline from a promising student to one who struggled and eventually abandoned his education.
Ramos, who shot 19 children and two teachers dead, was described as a 'a remarkable little boy' in kindergarten, but by middle school had been suspended or written up multiple times.
The files also contain a harrowing email sent by fourth-grade teacher Lynn Deming, who described being covered in blood after she was hit by shrapnel.
'I tried to stay calm for my students,' she wrote. 'I needed my students to hear that they were loved in case it was the last thing they ever heard.'
