The mother of a 10-year-old girl killed in the Uvalde school shooting is suing the police department, school district, and Daniel Defense, the manufacturer of the gun used in the massacre

The case also names the gun shop where the gunman bought the weapon used in the shooting, along with another AR-15 and ammunition, purchases that totaled thousands of dollars, though only one weapon was used in the shooting. One patron later told thehe"looked like ... a school shooter," according to the report from the Texas House of Representatives.

The July report found that nearly 400 law enforcement officials rushed to the mass shooting, but"egregiously poor decision-making" resulted in more than an hour of chaos before the gunman was finally confronted and killed. It criticized state and federal law enforcement as well as local authorities for failing to follow active shooter training and prioritizing their own safety over the victims' lives.

Another parent whose child was wounded in the shooting and two parents whose children were on campus at the time filed the first suit related to the Uvalde shooting in late September."For 77 minutes they did nothing. Nothing at all," she said."She'll never know what it's like to get married, to graduate, to go to her first prom ... never forget their faces."
