This is the best timeline that I have been able to find for the shooting.
A couple of items stand out for me.
At 11:36 AM There was 7 Officers in the hallway. At that point the room should have been breached.
At 12:03 PM There were 19 Officers in the hallway. At that point the room should have been breached.
At 12:15 PM The Border Patrol Tactical Team arrived. At that point the room should have been breached.
At 12:50 PM The room was breached.

12:03 PM – 911 call from room 112 lasting 1 minute, 23 seconds.
12:10 PM – 911 call from room 112, advised multiple are dead.

12:16 PM – 911 call from room 111, caller reporting there are eight to nine students alive.
12:15 PM – Members of BORTAC arrived, along with shields.
12:19 PM – 911 call from room 111, caller hung up when another student told them to.
12:21 PM – Shooter fired again, “It was believed to be at the door.”
12:21 PM – 911 call from room 111.

12:47 PM – Asked 911 to “please send the police now.”

This is Pete Arredondo, the Uvalde school district police chief who ordered 19 officers outside the classroom to stand down for an hour, waiting for backup & a key. Arredondo only oversees 4 school cops. The Adults present should have tazed his fat ass and taken over.
