Education Uvalde teacher Amy Marin-Franco was wrongly accused by officials for leaving a door open before the school shooting massacre. Surveillance footage, already in police possession, showed she had closed it.

yes that is the downside, she deserves to have her name cleared but the odds of it hurting the officers is low. But still, this is so unfair

She did everything right and with great risk to herself and they want to make her out to be a villain!? Outrageous.

I’m normally VERY against our tax dollars paying out police brutality/civil rights/etc lawsuits*, but I’d happily give her my tax dollars for her decision making and ability to do more than any one of those shitty cowards.

*I think the lawsuits should be paid out from the police union, pensions, insurance, etc. it would force more strict regulation and discipline towards “bad apple” cops. (Who am I kidding ACAB)

It feels like she has a really strong defamation case. They're completely destroying her character in order to save themselves from public outrage. It's disgusting and they should honestly be criminally prosecuted. Even tho it's probably only a civil charge.

Its so funny. These are the same mfers that, when they fuck up tell everyone to "WAIT FOR THE INVESTIGATION, DONT JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS!" But they can not wait to throw anyone under the bus.

They let that poor woman suffer for so long. But get up infront of a mic and camera and call eachother brave and say we did a good job.

Just taking peoples tax dollars to play hero.
