As investigators dig deeper into the law enforcement response to the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas , a host of disturbing questions remain about what officers on the scene knew as the deadly attack was unfolding. Did they know children were trapped in a classroom with the gunman? Was that potentially critical information relayed to the incident commander on the scene? And did officers challenge the commander's decision not to promptly storm the classroom? Authorities have not released audio of the 911 calls or radio communications but have confirmed dispatchers received panicked 911 calls from students trapped inside the locked classroom with the gunman while officers waited in a hallway outside. In an apparent breakdown in communications, Texas state Sen. Roland Gutierrez said Thursday that the commander overseeing police at the crime scene, school district Police Chief Pete Arredondo, was never informed that children were calling 911 from inside the school. … [Read more...] about What did police know as the Texas school shooting unfolded?

By Valentina Oropeza Colmenares Published 3 hours ago Share close Share page Copy link About sharing It was 25 June when Karen Caballero was seized by an "unexplained heaviness" in her chest. Her children had not been in touch. Two days later, around 8pm, she received a news alert on her cell phone. Dozens of migrants had died of heat inside the back of an abandoned lorry near the city of San Antonio, Texas, a bit over a hundred miles from the US-Mexico border. Panicked, Ms Caballero searched Google and Facebook for the phone numbers of Honduran consulates in the US, hospitals and police stations, to find out if her two sons and daughter-in-law could be among the victims. It was at 2am and no-one was answering. It has since emerged that Margie Paz Grajera, 24; Alejandro Andino Caballero, 23; and Fernando Redondo Caballero, 18 - Ms Caballero's relatives - were among the 53 … [Read more...] about Texas migrant deaths: ‘I still have to bring my children home’

GHISLAINE Maxwell will exploit her notoriety to control more vulnerable inmates in prison, Prince Andrew's cousin has sensationally claimed. The disgraced former socialite, 60, was jailed for two decades earlier this week for sex-trafficking teens for late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. She will soon be moved from the notorious Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, New York, to the minimum-security federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut . The plush lockup served as the inspiration for Orange Is the New Black - and experts claim it will be "like Disneyland" for the criminal who has been enduring a "living hell" in the lead up to her trial, according to her lawyers. Prince Andrew's second cousin, Christina Oxenberg , who used to be friends with Ghislaine, spoke to The Sun exclusively about how she will cope with prison life. Oxenberg claims: "While it may be provocative for people to herald threats of stabbings and maggoty food that await her the next 20 years, the … [Read more...] about Ghislaine Maxwell will exploit her notoriety to control more vulnerable inmates in prison, Andrew’s cousin claims

BECAUSE I love my wife and daughter, and because I want them to believe I am a good man, I have never talked to them about my year as a grunt with the 25th Infantry in Vietnam. I cannot tell my thirteen-year-old that once, drunk on Ba Muoi Ba beer, I took a girl her age into a thatched-roof hooch in Tay Ninh City and did her on a bamboo mat. I cannot tell my wife, who paints watercolors of songbirds, that on a search-and-destroy mission I emptied my M-60 machine gun into two beautiful white egrets that were wading in the muddy water of a paddy. I cannot tell them how I sang "Happy Trails" as I shoved two wounded Viet Cong out the door of a medevac chopper hovering twenty feet above the tarmac of a battalion aid station. I cannot tell them how I lay in a ditch and used my M-60 to gun down a skinny, black-haired farmer I thought was a VC, nearly blowing his head off. I cannot tell them how I completed the decapitation with a machete, and then stuck his head on a pole on top of a mountain … [Read more...] about I Am the Grass

It’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, but in episode two of The Terminal List the camera scans across the bookshelf of Navy Seal commander James Reece and reveals that his favoured reading matter includes Sun Tzu’s classic The Art Of War and the 21st century bestseller The Accidental Guerrilla. That tells us all we need to know about the mindset of the hero/anti-hero of the piece, signposting his transition from straight-up military man to rogue vigilante. Based on a book by real-life Seal Jack Carr, The Terminal List stars Chris Pratt as Reece, a soldier whose mind is deeply shaken by the death of a dozen soldiers from his unit on a mission that goes disastrously wrong. Haunted by horrible memories on his return, grilled by suits on his version of events, Reece can’t decide which way is up. But then he starts to suspect he’s been played for a fool. It’s an interesting premise, not least because the first 15 minutes of The Terminal List is devoted to the chaotic … [Read more...] about The Terminal List review: ‘A wasted opportunity in this Chris Pratt series’

MY favorite photograph of Kurt Weill captures the enigmatic quality of his life and music. At a rehearsal for the 1943 show Mary Martin sits atop an upright piano, her shapely legs dangling in front of the composer's face. Weill seems to be somewhere else. Baby-faced and bald, his eyes half closed, he seems to be playing for himself alone. His blank expression could mask humiliation or contempt or delight -- you can't tell. What is this professor doing on Broadway? This year is Kurt Weill's centenary, so the calendar is full of Weill events -- and for once there seems to be a real urgency to the commemorative festivities. Weill remains a cult composer, known mainly for a handful of songs; most of his complete works are rarely performed, and critical opinion is still unsettled. Hearing his works again -- particularly the revelatory early Second Symphony and the overpraised "Broadway opera" -- could restore balance to a reputation long skewed. The standard view of Weill divides … [Read more...] about Threepenny Composer
