The teacher who was at the center of the Uvalde mass shooting timeline issued statements disputing that she left a door “propped open” before the gunman entered.
The unnamed teacher’s lawyer, Don Flanary, told CNN that incorrect accusations that she left the door open have forced his client to come forward. Several days ago, a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) said that an initial claim was not true and that the teacher instead closed the door but it did not automatically lock as it should.
