Its absolutely disgusting that the parents have been treated so badly ,being shown no respect ,empathy ,yet the shooter gets all the rights ,all the care ,how can this be right and be a sane world ? .
Shame on Abbott for not helping these parents. An independent commission is the least they could’ve gotten. Nothing will bring those children back, but they deserve to understand and should get justice
That's because the locals in Santa Fe shunned the media because they didn't want the media talking about their lax gun control. The media tried to cover this. The parents and citizens of Santa Fe ran them out of town.
Hard to believe it’s been 6 yrs already. Everything about that day will never be forgotten Watch Chase’s Story sandy hook promise. That’s my Son . This episode was very hard to watch and very emotional for me. Thank you KPRC2Click 2 Houston for always being there.
Thank you for watching and sharing. We know these stories are hard to watch, but we feel it's important to give a voice to the families of the victims.
God be with you and your family love. I can't imagine what you're going through, but know that the citizens of the whole Houston metropolitan area are with you in spirit as you're healing as well. ❤❤❤
I remember that day being at Alvin high and how I came in late and was greeted by an officer and was put in the front office with a bunch of kids hiding, and everyone on snap watching what was going on.. horrible day that day.
My niece was there, my oldest son was texting me about from lake high school and then I was texting my sister in law. Probably the longest day to hear news since 9/11. And that that graduation was the most saddest and beautiful graduation I have ever been too. Rise Up by Audrey Day was playing during the memory of those students and teachers. Super proud of Santa fe Texas for keeping the media out.
It will forever be stuck in my mind how angry parkland was as a whole and made damn sure everyone saw the pictures of those kids. Meanwhile in Santa Fe those crosses AT THE SCHOOL got taken down so quickly as if some people in authority wanted to make sure it’s gonna be brushed over asap. I remember all the parkland faces and names but I don’t think I saw the Santa Fe Kids that were taken so unjust for longer than a week on tv.
That’s exactly right. They do have a permanent memorial (not near the high school) and there’s a small memorial on the side of the high school. However, I think they could have done ALOT better to honor the victims. FL as a whole rallied around Parkland parents and really gave them the support they needed. I’m not a huge fan of the FL govt, but they sure stepped up to make the parents at least feel heard. The lousy TX govt officials seemed too bothered by the whole thing to commit any real time to investigating and learning. Instead they threw (useless) money at it for stupid stuff like a “resiliency center” that’s never open and no one even knows what it is in the first place. 🙄 It’s a sad situation and shame on the TX govt for handling it so poorly.
If the locals in Santa Fe hadn't run the media out of town, the story would have been covered more. The people were literally avoiding the media. They didn't want to answer for the gun culture around there.
I mean, the way they reacted to and defended the cowards in Uvalde shows you the Texas state government doesn't care about school shooting victims. @@krankykrista
With the type of guns they are using in these shootings sometimes the dead are unrecognizable. They have to verify it 100% before they inform someone of such a dreadful thing. If they got it wrong it would be horrific. It takes time to identify people within 100% certainty.
not getting the media coverage like it should because the shooter did not use a AK rifle, he used a shotgun and pistol. This should be publicized, and lessons learned from this. metal health!
I went to school in Santa Fe when all the schools were conveniently located on War Path. I even took ballet, gymnastics and tap with Ms. Lindie right next to the old Winns or what might be still, The Dollar General. I'm definitely from a different era of school kids. Mean girls roamed the halls. Bullying was common place, especially for us lower income kids who wore hand me downs and garage sale clothes. We were taught American history, Texas History, said the Pledge of Allegiance each class day, hung the flag outside of school and learned how to fold it and why we respect our fallen soldiers. We picked on each other but I never could have imagined that violence of this caliber would ever make its way into the halls of Santa Fe schools. Even though we would ruse each other, the atmosphere never felt like it would change and evil would creep in. Not like this.
I was there that day as a teacher. I was one of the last ones there as Ms Rosie was notified. I coached her son. Ill never forget the things a saw and heard that day, especially from the deceased families.
@@Torchic_fries yep. Knew the killer very well. Have a letter his mom wrote me a year before the shooting that said how much he loved me and we were a blessing to him.
When you lose a child the anger is so great you just can’t imagine. I feel for these parents. I really don’t think the trial will help the anger or the grief
Knowing that school shootings are common, that theres no mobile phone signal there , the classroom landlines dont work?. WTAF. The education dept should be liable for them having nothing to call 911 with.
Most of the phones in the school didn’t work. That area of the school you would lose signal at times. They replaced the phones, but the teachers still had a hard time calling out
@@TexasGirl22 So if theres no ( or spotty) cell service, you make extra sure the landlines work! The education dept have a legally required 'Duty of Care' for pupil & teacher safety.
@@ProfShibeAmerica has the highest gun violence in the world because your country allows lunatics to use them. It will never change until you put strict restrictions in place
Im Australian and can PERSONALLY attest to the difference gun reform makes. There is no other country on Earth that has mass shooting problems even remotely like the USA does, an average of 12 mass shootings a week how can this no illicit change?? But its the school shootings that get me, why are your babies paying with their lives for the inaction of those who are SUPPOSED to protect them, why are your next generation loosing their lives so adults can choose 'rights' over 'their little lives' I can only HOPE that the next generation coming through, the ones that actually live this horror day in and day out will be brave enough to stand up and make the changes needed when they themselves are adults and in positions of power to save their children, their future generations. Australia had an horrific mass shooting in 1996 35 people died, within months, within the same year the laws were changed, a 3mth long buy back scheme was introduced, gun owners were asked to relinquish their guns for every gun handed over a check for $100 was given, you didn't need to give any information about the gun nothing, the laws here are very strict on getting a gun licence and even stricter are the type of guns allowed to be owned, you also must have 2 combination lockable secured safes, 1 for the guns and a separate one for ammunition, all guns MUST be registered, all gun owners MUST have a licence, no semi or full automatics, and a bunch of other laws and safety precautions the point is though since then we have had................. ZERO mass shootings since 1996, that's 28yrs, no kid here ever has to go to school and wonder if they will be killed, no kid has to go to school here and practice "active shooter" drills and NO parent ever has worry about whether their child's life will be stolen by some ego bruised, selfish, "hard done by" revenged filled POS. Surely the most basic of rights, the right to not be murdered/the right to live is MORE important than the right to bare arms, surely.
Yeah, how's that working out for ya? You all had one of the most tyrannical governments during COVID. Take away the guns in the US, and only the criminals and government have them. No f'ing thanks.
A LOT of reform has actually happened. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of gun laws changed across every state. California has the strictest gun laws in the nation and still had/has mass shootings. Because gun laws already in place aren't enforced properly and aren't the changes that matter. More school shootings have been stopped by one thing than any thing else: friends, families, and school reports. As more people learn the warning signs, more are making reports and more are taking those reports seriously.
On May 18, 2018, a school shooting occurred at Santa Fe High School in Santa Fe, Texas, United States, in the Houston metropolitan area. Ten people - eight students and two teachers - were fatally shot, and thirteen others were wounded. Dimitrios Pagourtzis, a 17-year-old student at the school, was taken into custody. The shooting is the eighth-deadliest school shooting in the United States.
@JenesisX you heard almost nothing about it because the citizens of Santa Fe ran the media out of town because they didn't want the media questioning their gun culture. They refused to talk to the media. That's a fact.
I live 15 miles away and at the time the shooters dad claimed he was bullied by a coach? (Not an excuse for his horrible actions) but if you are bullied why harm innocent people that didn’t bully you ? (Not saying that’s right either) but I didn’t buy the being bullied excuse. He had ammo delivered to his home how do you not notice this stuff? He was wearing a born to kill t shirt this parents failed horribly and so many innocent lives are forever changed
So the school turned off the phones so the kids and teachers can't use them and run up huge bills, so now they have no way to call for help, great, again, penny pinchers risking lives for money. Find out who switched off the phones, they deserve prison.
@@KPRC2Click2Houston The case of Brandy Smith. She was murdered at Sharpstown Mall Memorial Day weekend in 1999. I knew her well. We went to school together for years.
Wow! 🥹 I have tears streaming down my face listening to the mother's of the fallen children, and the LEO'S that responded and were injured on this horrific day. My heart goes out to everyone impacted by one boy's unimaginable horrendous mindset. ❤❤
I went to a neighbouring school. That day, in 2nd period, we were all given a mandatory lockdown drill presentation. I didn’t know why. Halfway through the PowerPoint, my teacher broke up and walked out of the room to cry. She was 6 months pregnant. That was when someone leaned over and said our neighboring city’s school had been attacked just earlier. No words in any language can express what I felt then. And I can’t imagine what our neighbors felt… Thank you to all the teachers and cops out there.
A psychotic break can come on incredibly quickly & seemingly without previous warning signs. I'm not saying this is what happened here, merely that it can happen both suddenly & surprisingly.
It's heartbreaking to hear the horror in the former teacher's voice, how brittle her voice is. I can't understand what is going on in the shooter's mind. The horror that these children and teachers and parents and everyone affected by this shooting have to go through is unimaginable. I hope that the witnesses and especially the victims who are injured but have survived will be able to lead a halfway normal life one day. I hope that all those affected can learn to deal with the loss of those who did not survive. May the students and teachers who had to give their lives rest in peace.
It didn't get the attention because the Santa Fe citizens snubbed the media and ran them out of town. They didn't want to talk about the gun reform issue so they didn't talk to the media and demonized them. What the hell do you expect?
Just FYI to the producers: there is no femoral artery in the arms - it's the brachial artery. I know the gentleman misspoke, but it's your job to make sure what's presented onscreen is accurate and you should have labeled that diagram correctly.
Literally everyone talks about it and it does nothing to improve the situation. A LOT of reform has actually happened. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of gun laws changed across every state. California has the strictest gun laws in the nation and still had/has mass shootings.

@@sivonniTHIS i think it’s a massive slap in the face to write these tragedies off as a “gun reform” issue especially to the victims of these tragedies there’s well over 1.5x the amount of guns in America for every American citizen if it was a “gun problem” every person in America would be dead
My second oldest grandson was a senior at Clear Springs in League City. His sister and a cousin were Sophomores. It was hard to hear of a shooting so close to them. The kids at their school held a fundraiser to help out folks and there's a photo of them all wearing the Santa Fe High School colors and standing in the hallway in solidarity. I've got two more grandsons and a granddaughter in high school in other districts and one in kindergarten. I worry all the time that this will happen again. I keep hoping that the districts study what happened in all the previous ones and take measures so we never have to hear of another one. As for this shooter, while prison would be good (and there are psych wards in the TDC, my ex worked in one in the panhandle), as long as they keep him far away from life outside custody and he ends up living a very long life and never gets to experience what others miss due to his arrogance, I'm okay with that.
It’s very easy not to notice... To you, that’s their normal... They don’t do anything out of character until they do... Usually madness starts off as someone being quiet or outbursts, but that can apply to most teenagers, so it’s easy not to notice...
My heart breaks for the families who are suffering through this unnecessary bull💩!! If wishes were horses I'd give each of you guys a ride. I hope you're able to stay strong. Inshallah. 🙏🏼
This is where we can and should do the most work, teaching about mental health and warning signs. More school shootings have been stopped by one thing than any thing else: friends, families, and school reports. As more people learn the warning signs, more are making reports and more are taking those reports seriously.
How is it that nobody , not his parents or teachers picked up on his behaviors because trust me he would of portrayed something that made people take a second look yet nobody notices anything??
Living so close to Sante Fe I always wondered why a video discussing what happened hadnt been made. I cried the day it happened watching it on the news and this hits hard again. Continued prayers for the families of victims.
I go to this school. I was in 3rd grade when it happened, and am in 10th grade now. The people there for the event graduated a year before I entered the building. These days, the school is pretty normal. Kids talk in the hallways, and there are more than a few "jokes" about a "part two". Nothing ever comes of these threats. The building is more secure than a normal school though, all students have to walk with their bags through metal detectors, and there are armed police officers around the halls. Teachers are required to use a fingerprint scanner to enter the building. Santa Fe isn't much different from other medium-sized Texas towns, except for the fact that the only notable thing about it is that one of the deadliest high-school shootings occurred here.
Anyone could become severely mentally ill after doing that. My heart goes out to all the families, who are the ones that continue to suffer which is beyond unfair.
Just FYI the femoral artery is not in your arm, it is in your groin/leg, aka runs along your femur hence the name "femoral". The major arteries in your arm are the radial and brachial arteries. The cop was probably hit in the brachial artery. Even a tiny bit of due diligence would've kept this news station from making an embarassing, basic, mistake.
In some states (maybe a federal law) after 10 years an incompetent inmate has possibility of being released to a mental institution and charges dismissed. This is crazy to me. Unrestorabe is a podcast that talks about competency and crimes like murder being committed and how that plays out in a court.
Years later I think so hard about this, I was in first period ROTC just up the road from Santa Fe, at Dickinson Highschool when the shooting happened and no one in our school even knew what was going on just that we were in a extremely long hard lockdown and it was terrifying, the area is all so close, I went to elementary school with some of the Santa Fe students so it’s just so hard
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is NOT specialized treatment! For God's sake, I can get that at my tiny rural church! What kind of mental facility does not offer cognitive behavioral therapy? That's like a hospital not offering aspirin!
A lot of students that went to school with him say that one of the female victims rejected him and that’s when he made the plan. It makes sense because she was in the art room he opened fire in. My sibling was in his class and said he was quiet and at lunch him and his friends would be making satanic symbols with their French fries.
But wasn't there an interview released early of this kid or am I mistaking him for someone else? It's terrible there's so many now that it's hard to keep them all separate. Maybe I'm thinking of the one where they actually got to stop the shooter before before he shot anyone and this kid was hearing voices too. If I find it I'll come back and mention it.
I dont know about this particular kid, but it’s usually case of ‘a nobody wants to be somebody’, or thats what Ive concluded it to be. Add immaturity and easy access to guns, the promised land of mass shootings is ready. Mental illness mightve been a factor here, but either way, it’s just sad.
Why didn’t more victims parents speak? Not trying to be insensitive but I had read that this shooter was bullied and he specifically targeted the others students for bullying. Is this true? I wish they’d touched on this
They didn't want to talk to the media. They were angry that the media was asking about the gun culture in that town and they snubbed the media. Now they cry about how no one covered their story. What did they expect? They ran the media out of town.
They should implement emergency buttons in each class and if God forbid something happens they can push it and it will let the whole campus know to be on lockdown, just like a fire alarm, so sad though :( RIP
wonder what the shooter meant by saying '' i didn't think i could do it" ?!?! Did he mean he didn't thnk he could take on two cops? Or did he mean he didn't think he could kill himself? so weird. So very sad for SF
27:10 "no greater love hath any man than he lay down his life for his friends"-Jesus Christ It makes me so sad to see this kind of evil but then to see how selfless another man can be gives me joy and hope for mankind.
School shootings only happen in the US, they continue to happen because the solution to the problem is never even discussed, it's considered to be something that could never happen in America. Consequently, nothing is done to combat gun crimes, such as school shootings, + not surprisingly they escalate in frequency yet still no action is taken. The truth is, although US media + society in general avoid facing up to it, gun crimes like that of the attack at Santa Fe High, are just accepted as the price you pay for the pleasure of legally possessing the firearms that so many Americans do, despite having no need or good reason to do so. It appears that America is willing to put up with no end of gun violence as long as no stricter controls are introduced, + as long as it's someone else's kids getting shot, which it is most of the time, attitudes quickly change when it's not, though. School shootings happen because nothing is done to prevent them, they're allowed to happen, the guns you all love so much get used to do what they're made to do + those directly involved talk about the need for change while everyone else makes sure that doesn't happen. What is getting discussed more often these days, + I believe it's supposed to be taken seriously?...?...? It's the stroke of genius whereby potential shooters are identified before a shot gets fired, perfect, or it would be if we were anywhere remotely close to making such a thing possible, which we're not, it's a ridiculous suggestion. Don't forget, the answer to the problem is well-known + proven to work, the UK had a school shooting in 1996 + in stark contrast to the US, young kids getting shot dead whilst attending school was considered in no way acceptable + steps were taken to prevent any similar attacks + to this day not a single school shooting has ever taken place. Regular citizens have no need to own firearms, removing them from society is therefore only logical + no credible argument against doing so has ever come up. The more time that goes by + mass shooting events continue to go on in the US, the more people understand the situation + what is allowed to keep on happening just so people get to keep guns they don't need + can't justify to any meaningful extent. The next time a bunch of school kids get slaughtered in their classroom, you know why, some people still don't seem to get it, this film is all about searching for answers but the main issue is avoided, like it always is. What was on the kid's mind is the big issue, did that train of thought contribute to the UK completely wiping out school shootings from the nation's reality???? No, of course it didn't, the US won't ever prevent school shootings because they won't accept the solution, they're different from everyone else, they need guns but they can't say, why??? Frankly, it's pathetic, they value guns beyond all reason in spite of the crime + violence that they bring, they can't offer a single positive aspect that comes with them but the thought of doing without them is not an option, they won't hear of it. So, next school shooting when parents are looking for answers, someone should explain that it's just part of America, like baseball + Coca-Cola, have the guts to tell it like it is........... Of course, no one will, fortunately people like me are on hand to do the job, dirty as though it may be, someone's got to do it....................
A LOT of reform has actually happened. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of gun laws changed across every state. California has the strictest gun laws in the nation and still had/has mass shootings. Because gun laws already in place aren't enforced properly and aren't the changes that matter. More school shootings have been stopped by one thing than any thing else: friends, families, and school reports. As more people learn the warning signs, more are making reports and more are taking those reports seriously. And other countries have mass stabbings, bombings, and there were more people killed in France by a truck than were killed at ANY mass shooting in the US. So...are you planning to outlaw trucks?
@@sivonni No, outlawing trucks, knives + bombs is a ridiculous notion, one which I never even remotely touched upon, but when people do I always wonder why??? It's such a laughably weak point, I'm well aware there are all sorts of tools, other than guns, you can use to kill people + I'm not talking about banning them. Is that supposed to make banning guns a waste of time??? Because there are other ways to kill still available??? This is a typically desperate attempt at opposition much like the moronic 'Guns don't kill anyone, people do', argument. The same can be said of heroin, presumably......... Banning guns isn't ridiculous, or impractical + any pro-gunner who understands the issue knows only too well no credible argument against the idea, exists. The gun crowd have never been able to justify their side of things. How do guns benefit American communities, what advantages do they offer? They've never come up with anything close to an answer to that one, a satisfactory one, anyway........ And it's hardly a trick question, is it? A final word, banning guns isn't crazy at all, + guess what??? They did it in Australia, + the UK + gun crime + violence is........ I'll call it 'uncommon', in both nations. They made changes around 30 years ago, what's changed in the US, in that time??? Well, take school shootings, since Columbine in 1999, they've become so common they struggle to make the news outside of the state they occur in. Nothing good, in other words. Regular people don't need guns, they only offer US communities crime + violence, I could go on........ If I did, you wouldn't have an answer, maybe some other piss-weak nonsense I can walk all over, but nothing worthwhile because there's no such thing. People often resort to insults + name-calling because they can't offer anything that supports their view. I hope you won't do that, I've been deeply hurt by some of the slurs + accusations I've had thrown at me + I deny every one of them........
My kids will never step into a classroom no school in USA is safe my kids travel the world see all they teach in books live we goto real history we go to all castles,ibrary all the capitals met 14 governors it’s so fun I see my kids 24 a day as friends go most are from Sweden they come here travel no bulling no classroom where teachers don’t want to teach and they 4 years advanced so it works and they will not die from any school
Implementing some "safety measures" while ensuring such easy access to guns and protecting the right to own them makes no sense to me. It's like guns have rights but people don't.
You can't close it again. In my country, if they ban guns, law abiding citizens will abide. The problem is, criminals will not. And, since there are so many guns in circulation, the criminals will always be able to obtain guns. That leaves law abiding citizens in fear of not being able to defend against the gun toting criminal. Police response is not faster than a bullet. So, people want the option to have a gun, even though most of us do not have them. But, you can't go back, once you allow widespread gun distribution.

@@courtneyfrost915 Also, the weapon isn't the issue. In other countries that outlawed guns, knife crimes immediately went on the rise. A guy in France killed more people with a truck than have been killed in ANY mass shooting. Mental health and terrorism are both issues that need to be better addressed. By a LOT.
Especially the survivors of October 7th. I've heard their stories and the released hostages' stories. It's more horrifying than any mass shooting story or war story.
Are you being serious right now? Are you really going to stoop so low that you have to compare tragedies? I do believe both are awful but I also believe you shouldn't undermine one event by comparing the severity of another. Please have some respect for these people and their loved ones. Bring awareness to things that are actually causing the genocide, there's no need to compare trauma.
This still hurts so much. 😢 The pain they have all had to suffer and still suffers. I can't imagine having to wake up every day and praying it was all a bad dream and have to remember it is very much real 😢 i know the survivors, the real heroes may not see this but thank you for your will to survive and your bravery to share your story 🙏🏽 ❤️ You are all so loved. Thank you for giving me another reason to fight through these dark times, i truly needed to watch this 😢❤❤❤

Shame on Abbott for not helping these parents. An independent commission is the least they could’ve gotten. Nothing will bring those children back, but they deserve to understand and should get justice

And that that graduation was the most saddest and beautiful graduation I have ever been too. Rise Up by Audrey Day was playing during the memory of those students and teachers. Super proud of Santa fe Texas for keeping the media out.
Brilliant youre back! I love this series its absolutely fascinating. Greetings from scotland.
Glad you enjoy it!
It will forever be stuck in my mind how angry parkland was as a whole and made damn sure everyone saw the pictures of those kids. Meanwhile in Santa Fe those crosses AT THE SCHOOL got taken down so quickly as if some people in authority wanted to make sure it’s gonna be brushed over asap. I remember all the parkland faces and names but I don’t think I saw the Santa Fe Kids that were taken so unjust for longer than a week on tv.
That’s exactly right. They do have a permanent memorial (not near the high school) and there’s a small memorial on the side of the high school. However, I think they could have done ALOT better to honor the victims. FL as a whole rallied around Parkland parents and really gave them the support they needed. I’m not a huge fan of the FL govt, but they sure stepped up to make the parents at least feel heard. The lousy TX govt officials seemed too bothered by the whole thing to commit any real time to investigating and learning. Instead they threw (useless) money at it for stupid stuff like a “resiliency center” that’s never open and no one even knows what it is in the first place. 🙄 It’s a sad situation and shame on the TX govt for handling it so poorly.
If the locals in Santa Fe hadn't run the media out of town, the story would have been covered more. The people were literally avoiding the media. They didn't want to answer for the gun culture around there.
I mean, the way they reacted to and defended the cowards in Uvalde shows you the Texas state government doesn't care about school shooting victims. @@krankykrista
How can that poor mother be made to wait 10 fvcking hours before being told her child was murdered, i DO NOT understand.
Because in some cases, wrong people were notified and they want to be sure.
that was terrible.
Wow
With the type of guns they are using in these shootings sometimes the dead are unrecognizable. They have to verify it 100% before they inform someone of such a dreadful thing. If they got it wrong it would be horrific. It takes time to identify people within 100% certainty.
Alone that's terrible 😢
not getting the media coverage like it should because the shooter did not use a AK rifle, he used a shotgun and pistol. This should be publicized, and lessons learned from this. metal health!
At least these cops did their jobs and went straight to him and thought about the kids unlike the ones at Robb elementary
I went to school in Santa Fe when all the schools were conveniently located on War Path. I even took ballet, gymnastics and tap with Ms. Lindie right next to the old Winns or what might be still, The Dollar General. I'm definitely from a different era of school kids. Mean girls roamed the halls. Bullying was common place, especially for us lower income kids who wore hand me downs and garage sale clothes. We were taught American history, Texas History, said the Pledge of Allegiance each class day, hung the flag outside of school and learned how to fold it and why we respect our fallen soldiers. We picked on each other but I never could have imagined that violence of this caliber would ever make its way into the halls of Santa Fe schools. Even though we would ruse each other, the atmosphere never felt like it would change and evil would creep in. Not like this.
How did the parents send him to school every day knowing he was that ill by the sound of the severity they had to know. Right?
@@KassieDavid i dont think it was a student and they probably tested him it it was negative
They ABSOLUTELY knew
I was there that day as a teacher. I was one of the last ones there as Ms Rosie was notified. I coached her son. Ill never forget the things a saw and heard that day, especially from the deceased families.
What really!?
@@Torchic_fries yep. Knew the killer very well. Have a letter his mom wrote me a year before the shooting that said how much he loved me and we were a blessing to him.

When you lose a child the anger is so great you just can’t imagine. I feel for these parents. I really don’t think the trial will help the anger or the grief
Knowing that school shootings are common, that theres no mobile phone signal there , the classroom landlines dont work?. WTAF. The education dept should be liable for them having nothing to call 911 with.
Most of the phones in the school didn’t work. That area of the school you would lose signal at times. They replaced the phones, but the teachers still had a hard time calling out
@@TexasGirl22 So if theres no ( or spotty) cell service, you make extra sure the landlines work! The education dept have a legally required 'Duty of Care' for pupil & teacher safety.
School shootings are not common at all what. Even if you go to the countries with the most gun violence in the world they are still fairly rare
@@ProfShibeAmerica has the highest gun violence in the world because your country allows lunatics to use them. It will never change until you put strict restrictions in place
@@ProfShibeThey're common in the US if you subscribe to US news channels. Every other month theres a school shooting.
Im Australian and can PERSONALLY attest to the difference gun reform makes.
There is no other country on Earth that has mass shooting problems even remotely like the USA does, an average of 12 mass shootings a week how can this no illicit change??
But its the school shootings that get me, why are your babies paying with their lives for the inaction of those who are SUPPOSED to protect them, why are your next generation loosing their lives so adults can choose 'rights' over 'their little lives'
I can only HOPE that the next generation coming through, the ones that actually live this horror day in and day out will be brave enough to stand up and make the changes needed when they themselves are adults and in positions of power to save their children, their future generations.
Australia had an horrific mass shooting in 1996 35 people died, within months, within the same year the laws were changed, a 3mth long buy back scheme was introduced, gun owners were asked to relinquish their guns for every gun handed over a check for $100 was given, you didn't need to give any information about the gun nothing, the laws here are very strict on getting a gun licence and even stricter are the type of guns allowed to be owned, you also must have 2 combination lockable secured safes, 1 for the guns and a separate one for ammunition, all guns MUST be registered, all gun owners MUST have a licence, no semi or full automatics, and a bunch of other laws and safety precautions the point is though since then we have had.................
ZERO mass shootings since 1996, that's 28yrs, no kid here ever has to go to school and wonder if they will be killed, no kid has to go to school here and practice "active shooter" drills and NO parent ever has worry about whether their child's life will be stolen by some ego bruised, selfish, "hard done by" revenged filled POS.
Surely the most basic of rights, the right to not be murdered/the right to live is MORE important than the right to bare arms, surely.
'bear' arms
Thank you for your comment.
The right to bear arms supersedes your need to “feel” safe.
Yeah, how's that working out for ya? You all had one of the most tyrannical governments during COVID. Take away the guns in the US, and only the criminals and government have them. No f'ing thanks.
A LOT of reform has actually happened. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of gun laws changed across every state. California has the strictest gun laws in the nation and still had/has mass shootings. Because gun laws already in place aren't enforced properly and aren't the changes that matter. More school shootings have been stopped by one thing than any thing else: friends, families, and school reports. As more people learn the warning signs, more are making reports and more are taking those reports seriously.
On May 18, 2018, a school shooting occurred at Santa Fe High School in Santa Fe, Texas, United States, in the Houston metropolitan area. Ten people - eight students and two teachers - were fatally shot, and thirteen others were wounded. Dimitrios Pagourtzis, a 17-year-old student at the school, was taken into custody. The shooting is the eighth-deadliest school shooting in the United States.
Yet we heard almost nothing about it, or the shooter. So strange.
@JenesisX you heard almost nothing about it because the citizens of Santa Fe ran the media out of town because they didn't want the media questioning their gun culture. They refused to talk to the media. That's a fact.
Wrong artery, he actually got shot in the Brachial artery the Femoral artery is in your leg
I live 15 miles away and at the time the shooters dad claimed he was bullied by a coach? (Not an excuse for his horrible actions) but if you are bullied why harm innocent people that didn’t bully you ? (Not saying that’s right either) but I didn’t buy the being bullied excuse. He had ammo delivered to his home how do you not notice this stuff? He was wearing a born to kill t shirt this parents failed horribly and so many innocent lives are forever changed
So the school turned off the phones so the kids and teachers can't use them and run up huge bills, so now they have no way to call for help, great, again, penny pinchers risking lives for money.
Find out who switched off the phones, they deserve prison.
it’s always so exciting yet so eerie when i see a new episode as a houstonian
Yes!!! I go back to that time in my life and think "OMG! I was doing (blank) while this was happening across town!".
Thank you for watching! Let us know if you have any cases in mind that you'd like to see on The Evidence Room.
@@KPRC2Click2Houston The case of Brandy Smith. She was murdered at Sharpstown Mall Memorial Day weekend in 1999. I knew her well. We went to school together for years.
Wow! 🥹 I have tears streaming down my face listening to the mother's of the fallen children, and the LEO'S that responded and were injured on this horrific day.
My heart goes out to everyone impacted by one boy's unimaginable horrendous mindset. ❤❤
I went to a neighbouring school. That day, in 2nd period, we were all given a mandatory lockdown drill presentation. I didn’t know why.
Halfway through the PowerPoint, my teacher broke up and walked out of the room to cry. She was 6 months pregnant.
That was when someone leaned over and said our neighboring city’s school had been attacked just earlier.
No words in any language can express what I felt then. And I can’t imagine what our neighbors felt…
Thank you to all the teachers and cops out there.
Before the shooting he was on the honour roll and after that he's incompetent to stand tfrial. If he was that unwell, where were the signs?
Signs aren't always prevalent. And typically with the most severe mental illnesses you don't notice until it's pretty deep into the spiral. 😢
A psychotic break can come on incredibly quickly & seemingly without previous warning signs. I'm not saying this is what happened here, merely that it can happen both suddenly & surprisingly.
I love the evidence room
Thank you for watching!
It's heartbreaking to hear the horror in the former teacher's voice, how brittle her voice is. I can't understand what is going on in the shooter's mind. The horror that these children and teachers and parents and everyone affected by this shooting have to go through is unimaginable. I hope that the witnesses and especially the victims who are injured but have survived will be able to lead a halfway normal life one day. I hope that all those affected can learn to deal with the loss of those who did not survive. May the students and teachers who had to give their lives rest in peace.
So glad u guys r making this known it did not get the attention it deserved and it needs to be known.thank u for sharing
It didn't get the attention because the Santa Fe citizens snubbed the media and ran them out of town. They didn't want to talk about the gun reform issue so they didn't talk to the media and demonized them. What the hell do you expect?
So glad your back i love your series
This is why we don''t have guns in Australia
Just FYI to the producers: there is no femoral artery in the arms - it's the brachial artery. I know the gentleman misspoke, but it's your job to make sure what's presented onscreen is accurate and you should have labeled that diagram correctly.
Calm the eff down you delicate flower...if that's what stuck with you after this documentary I can suggest the number of a good damn therapist

Nobody talked about the elephant in the room. Gun control

It’s sad to say, but what to expect from Texas?
@@sivonniTHIS i think it’s a massive slap in the face to write these tragedies off as a “gun reform” issue especially to the victims of these tragedies there’s well over 1.5x the amount of guns in America for every American citizen if it was a “gun problem” every person in America would be dead
@@yungdon1636you're an ignorant idiot
Have been binge watching and have 3 to go , love this channel
Never forget these young people and their families 😢
My second oldest grandson was a senior at Clear Springs in League City. His sister and a cousin were Sophomores. It was hard to hear of a shooting so close to them. The kids at their school held a fundraiser to help out folks and there's a photo of them all wearing the Santa Fe High School colors and standing in the hallway in solidarity.
I've got two more grandsons and a granddaughter in high school in other districts and one in kindergarten. I worry all the time that this will happen again. I keep hoping that the districts study what happened in all the previous ones and take measures so we never have to hear of another one.
As for this shooter, while prison would be good (and there are psych wards in the TDC, my ex worked in one in the panhandle), as long as they keep him far away from life outside custody and he ends up living a very long life and never gets to experience what others miss due to his arrogance, I'm okay with that.
If this murderer really is that mentally incompetent, which, 😒, HOW DID HIS PARENTS NOT NOTICE!?
It’s very easy not to notice...
To you, that’s their normal...
They don’t do anything out of character until they do...
Usually madness starts off as someone being quiet or outbursts, but that can apply to most teenagers, so it’s easy not to notice...
My heart breaks for the families who are suffering through this unnecessary bull💩!! If wishes were horses I'd give each of you guys a ride. I hope you're able to stay strong. Inshallah. 🙏🏼
Condolences and Strength to all victims and families who experienced this tragic event!
His parent/parents did not notice his mental health??
Nope.
I am very anxious to hear answers to this question.
From looking at Columbine it's imperative that parents pay more attention to how their kids think & act. Rarely is that ever the case!
@@melfarm9109 His parents have money. They most likely don’t care.
This is where we can and should do the most work, teaching about mental health and warning signs. More school shootings have been stopped by one thing than any thing else: friends, families, and school reports. As more people learn the warning signs, more are making reports and more are taking those reports seriously.
My cousins whom I lost contact with went to this school and I’m just now learning they went through this
How is it that nobody , not his parents or teachers picked up on his behaviors because trust me he would of portrayed something that made people take a second look yet nobody notices anything??
Substitute teachers, substitute coaches.... Did anyone actually work full time at this school???
Living so close to Sante Fe I always wondered why a video discussing what happened hadnt been made. I cried the day it happened watching it on the news and this hits hard again. Continued prayers for the families of victims.
I go to this school. I was in 3rd grade when it happened, and am in 10th grade now. The people there for the event graduated a year before I entered the building. These days, the school is pretty normal. Kids talk in the hallways, and there are more than a few "jokes" about a "part two". Nothing ever comes of these threats. The building is more secure than a normal school though, all students have to walk with their bags through metal detectors, and there are armed police officers around the halls. Teachers are required to use a fingerprint scanner to enter the building. Santa Fe isn't much different from other medium-sized Texas towns, except for the fact that the only notable thing about it is that one of the deadliest high-school shootings occurred here.
This would be great but it doesn't have enough ads!
Anyone could become severely mentally ill after doing that. My heart goes out to all the families, who are the ones that continue to suffer which is beyond unfair.
I agree , except he’s not a man, he’s a little boy Quinn is .
Yes they should talk or be haunted the rest of their lives !!!!
SANTA FE STRONG!!!!
This is so sad... they should secure schools just like they secure airports... Our kids' safety is just as important...
Just FYI the femoral artery is not in your arm, it is in your groin/leg, aka runs along your femur hence the name "femoral". The major arteries in your arm are the radial and brachial arteries. The cop was probably hit in the brachial artery. Even a tiny bit of due diligence would've kept this news station from making an embarassing, basic, mistake.
In some states (maybe a federal law) after 10 years an incompetent inmate has possibility of being released to a mental institution and charges dismissed. This is crazy to me. Unrestorabe is a podcast that talks about competency and crimes like murder being committed and how that plays out in a court.
19:36 that tunnel vision from law enforcement often cost people their lives. Thank goodness for cell phones.
Years later I think so hard about this, I was in first period ROTC just up the road from Santa Fe, at Dickinson Highschool when the shooting happened and no one in our school even knew what was going on just that we were in a extremely long hard lockdown and it was terrifying, the area is all so close, I went to elementary school with some of the Santa Fe students so it’s just so hard
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is NOT specialized treatment! For God's sake, I can get that at my tiny rural church! What kind of mental facility does not offer cognitive behavioral therapy? That's like a hospital not offering aspirin!
I totally agree. It’s basic therapy. I found that excuse BS. He could not be that insane if CBT was his only need.
I dont understand how a teacher can bring a gun to school. Isnt that illegal? US need to take action about gun laws
What was the hole reason for it ? Did the shooter saw why he did it ?
There has been no reasoning confirmed..
Thanks for your question @carlossolier1056, we don't have that answer. It's unclear if we'll ever get that answer because of the competency issue.
A lot of students that went to school with him say that one of the female victims rejected him and that’s when he made the plan. It makes sense because she was in the art room he opened fire in. My sibling was in his class and said he was quiet and at lunch him and his friends would be making satanic symbols with their French fries.
But wasn't there an interview released early of this kid or am I mistaking him for someone else?
It's terrible there's so many now that it's hard to keep them all separate.
Maybe I'm thinking of the one where they actually got to stop the shooter before before he shot anyone and this kid was hearing voices too.
If I find it I'll come back and mention it.
I dont know about this particular kid, but it’s usually case of ‘a nobody wants to be somebody’, or thats what Ive concluded it to be. Add immaturity and easy access to guns, the promised land of mass shootings is ready. Mental illness mightve been a factor here, but either way, it’s just sad.
Femoral artery is in the lower extremities. Not the arms. There are 3 arteries in the arms, but femoral isn’t one of them. Just clarifying.
Never heard of this until now...
There are sooo many I can’t even keep up
Only in America is this normal
This is not and should never be normal
Why didn’t more victims parents speak? Not trying to be insensitive but I had read that this shooter was bullied and he specifically targeted the others students for bullying. Is this true? I wish they’d touched on this
They didn't want to talk to the media. They were angry that the media was asking about the gun culture in that town and they snubbed the media. Now they cry about how no one covered their story. What did they expect? They ran the media out of town.
Not the blood making the floor slippery omg😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣
44:55 not with that attitude and mindset you should never give up fighting for justice for the death of your children
They should implement emergency buttons in each class and if God forbid something happens they can push it and it will let the whole campus know to be on lockdown, just like a fire alarm, so sad though :( RIP
I haven’t watched the full video yet so I’m not sure if they did but I hoped the school were held accountable for the landlines not working 😢
Dimitrios Pagourtzis !!!!KILLER
wonder what the shooter meant by saying '' i didn't think i could do it" ?!?! Did he mean he didn't thnk he could take on two cops? Or did he mean he didn't think he could kill himself? so weird. So very sad for SF
Playing well the system! 👏🏻👏🏻😶

Ridiculous
In which sense?
School shootings only happen in the US, they continue to happen because the solution to the problem is never even discussed, it's considered to be something that could never happen in America. Consequently, nothing is done to combat gun crimes, such as school shootings, + not surprisingly they escalate in frequency yet still no action is taken.
The truth is, although US media + society in general avoid facing up to it, gun crimes like that of the attack at Santa Fe High, are just accepted as the price you pay for the pleasure of legally possessing the firearms that so many Americans do, despite having no need or good reason to do so.
It appears that America is willing to put up with no end of gun violence as long as no stricter controls are introduced, + as long as it's someone else's kids getting shot, which it is most of the time, attitudes quickly change when it's not, though.
School shootings happen because nothing is done to prevent them, they're allowed to happen, the guns you all love so much get used to do what they're made to do + those directly involved talk about the need for change while everyone else makes sure that doesn't happen.
What is getting discussed more often these days, + I believe it's supposed to be taken seriously?...?...? It's the stroke of genius whereby potential shooters are identified before a shot gets fired, perfect, or it would be if we were anywhere remotely close to making such a thing possible, which we're not, it's a ridiculous suggestion.
Don't forget, the answer to the problem is well-known + proven to work, the UK had a school shooting in 1996 + in stark contrast to the US, young kids getting shot dead whilst attending school was considered in no way acceptable + steps were taken to prevent any similar attacks + to this day not a single school shooting has ever taken place.
Regular citizens have no need to own firearms, removing them from society is therefore only logical + no credible argument against doing so has ever come up.
The more time that goes by + mass shooting events continue to go on in the US, the more people understand the situation + what is allowed to keep on happening just so people get to keep guns they don't need + can't justify to any meaningful extent.
The next time a bunch of school kids get slaughtered in their classroom, you know why, some people still don't seem to get it, this film is all about searching for answers but the main issue is avoided, like it always is.
What was on the kid's mind is the big issue, did that train of thought contribute to the UK completely wiping out school shootings from the nation's reality????
No, of course it didn't, the US won't ever prevent school shootings because they won't accept the solution, they're different from everyone else, they need guns but they can't say, why???
Frankly, it's pathetic, they value guns beyond all reason in spite of the crime + violence that they bring, they can't offer a single positive aspect that comes with them but the thought of doing without them is not an option, they won't hear of it.
So, next school shooting when parents are looking for answers, someone should explain that it's just part of America, like baseball + Coca-Cola, have the guts to tell it like it is........... Of course, no one will, fortunately people like me are on hand to do the job, dirty as though it may be, someone's got to do it....................
Those who sacrifice freedom for safety deserve neither freedom nor safety. Cry harder, you will not infringe on rights.
It's interesting that not one victim here talked about gun control. Maybe because it's Texas
A LOT of reform has actually happened. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of gun laws changed across every state. California has the strictest gun laws in the nation and still had/has mass shootings. Because gun laws already in place aren't enforced properly and aren't the changes that matter. More school shootings have been stopped by one thing than any thing else: friends, families, and school reports. As more people learn the warning signs, more are making reports and more are taking those reports seriously.
And other countries have mass stabbings, bombings, and there were more people killed in France by a truck than were killed at ANY mass shooting in the US. So...are you planning to outlaw trucks?
@@sivonni No, outlawing trucks, knives + bombs is a ridiculous notion, one which I never even remotely touched upon, but when people do I always wonder why???
It's such a laughably weak point, I'm well aware there are all sorts of tools, other than guns, you can use to kill people + I'm not talking about banning them.
Is that supposed to make banning guns a waste of time??? Because there are other ways to kill still available???
This is a typically desperate attempt at opposition much like the moronic 'Guns don't kill anyone, people do', argument.
The same can be said of heroin, presumably.........
Banning guns isn't ridiculous, or impractical + any pro-gunner who understands the issue knows only too well no credible argument against the idea, exists.
The gun crowd have never been able to justify their side of things.
How do guns benefit American communities, what advantages do they offer?
They've never come up with anything close to an answer to that one, a satisfactory one, anyway........ And it's hardly a trick question, is it?
A final word, banning guns isn't crazy at all, + guess what???
They did it in Australia, + the UK + gun crime + violence is........ I'll call it 'uncommon', in both nations.
They made changes around 30 years ago, what's changed in the US, in that time???
Well, take school shootings, since Columbine in 1999, they've become so common they struggle to make the news outside of the state they occur in.
Nothing good, in other words.
Regular people don't need guns, they only offer US communities crime + violence, I could go on........ If I did, you wouldn't have an answer, maybe some other piss-weak nonsense I can walk all over, but nothing worthwhile because there's no such thing.
People often resort to insults + name-calling because they can't offer anything that supports their view.
I hope you won't do that, I've been deeply hurt by some of the slurs + accusations I've had thrown at me + I deny every one of them........

Implementing some "safety measures" while ensuring such easy access to guns and protecting the right to own them makes no sense to me. It's like guns have rights but people don't.

What do you think of the gun fanatics wanting to have USA 2A rights in Canada? Once that bottle is open, how do you close it again?
What do you mean by gun fanatics? Do you know 90% of mass shootings in the states happen in ‘gun-free zones?’
You can't close it again. In my country, if they ban guns, law abiding citizens will abide. The problem is, criminals will not. And, since there are so many guns in circulation, the criminals will always be able to obtain guns. That leaves law abiding citizens in fear of not being able to defend against the gun toting criminal. Police response is not faster than a bullet. So, people want the option to have a gun, even though most of us do not have them.
But, you can't go back, once you allow widespread gun distribution.

@@courtneyfrost915 Also, the weapon isn't the issue. In other countries that outlawed guns, knife crimes immediately went on the rise. A guy in France killed more people with a truck than have been killed in ANY mass shooting. Mental health and terrorism are both issues that need to be better addressed. By a LOT.
These stories are also going to be told by the children of the Palestine and Israel war but they will be 10 times worse!
Especially the survivors of October 7th. I've heard their stories and the released hostages' stories. It's more horrifying than any mass shooting story or war story.
Are you being serious right now? Are you really going to stoop so low that you have to compare tragedies? I do believe both are awful but I also believe you shouldn't undermine one event by comparing the severity of another. Please have some respect for these people and their loved ones. Bring awareness to things that are actually causing the genocide, there's no need to compare trauma.
This still hurts so much. 😢 The pain they have all had to suffer and still suffers. I can't imagine having to wake up every day and praying it was all a bad dream and have to remember it is very much real 😢 i know the survivors, the real heroes may not see this but thank you for your will to survive and your bravery to share your story 🙏🏽 ❤️ You are all so loved. Thank you for giving me another reason to fight through these dark times, i truly needed to watch this 😢❤❤❤
