UVALDE, Texas (WOAI) — Sgt. Donald Page, who was one of the first on the scene for the Robb Elementary School massacre in 2022, has retired from the Uvalde Police Department effective Sept. 13.
This came two days after the department placed Page on paid administrative leave after they investigated missing body camera footage from the day of the shooting.

Have to wonder if the missing footage was in the investigation/cover-up of what happened that day.
ReplyDeleteHow about fired with cause and lose that golden pension?
ReplyDeleteHopefully one of the fathers meets up with him and does what should have been done the day after the shooting

What you said
DeleteI don't know how he was able to stay in that town. Kids dead because he was afraid. He had to hear the shots and kids screaming. What make of man ignores that? One would think he would have moved and changed his name.
ReplyDeleteWhy did it take so long for this to happen?
ReplyDeleteEver been to Uvalde? Don't get me started.
ReplyDeleteRetired from the force,. Next step: Swallow your gun and retire from the human race, Sarge.
ReplyDeleteFuckin' A, bogs.
DeleteHow do you convince a woman you won't come inside her?
ReplyDeleteTell her you're a Uvalde police officer.
If Donald Page had gone to his boss and told him, right up front, that he wasn't up for rushing into a building and getting into a gun fight with violent criminals or terrorists, he could have been assigned to a desk job and no one would have thought any less of him. He couldn't do it, knew he wasn't up for it, and so took himself out of that position. There's no dishonor in that.
ReplyDeleteWhat Page did was flee in the face of the enemy and fail his oath of office. He should have been fired with extreme prejudice.
Since Columbine, every police department and sheriff's department has, as their policies and procedures (required rules of conduct,) "First on Scene, First In." Basically recon by force.
DeleteIt wouldn't be hard, at all, to fire these cowards, like at Parkland (Cowards of Broward) and Uvalde.
Seriously. Simple rule. Show up and go in. No waiting for SWAT or an 'on-scene commander.' Go in, shoot the asshole and, yes, get potentially shot. While going in, keep on the radio and say what you see.
None of these assholes have done it. So fuck them. Sideways, with a weedeater with one of those piranha blades on it.
Had it been proven that my child died in that classroom because these cowardly cops stood down, "retirement" would never have been an option for them. Their official department photos should be placed on every bulletin board and telephone pole in town.
ReplyDeleteLike kids joining the military for the bennies, then get all out of shape when they find they might have to actually act as ... soldiers. This tub joined the PD for the power and prestige (?) then shit his pants when the downside showed up. I agree with Survivormann99: SSS
