A detailed report from the Miami Herald on the shooting and what went wrong. It is not an easy read and the blame does not rest with the Schools Officer present.

Captured via Twitter this 28 page report, mainly from their Behavioural Analysis Unit (BAU) and sub-titled:

This report, covering active shooter incidents in the United States between 2000 and 2013, examines specific behaviors that may precede an attack and that might be useful in identifying, assessing, and managing those who may be on a pathway to violence.

It is the second part of a research programme, Part One was published in 2014, which had a different focus.

Add crappy security to the list of "failed Checks and Balances already set forth".

From March of this year -

The trailers with the guns had been parked back-to-back with the roll-up doors facing each other. Two longer trailers were then parked along those trailers to prevent anyone from backing a tractor up to the trailers and pulling them away.

Someone had hot-wired two tractor-trailers in the lot, investigators said, then used them to push and pull trailers around the lot until thieves could access the guns.

All told, feds said the thieves took 600 handguns, 54 shotguns, an entire pallet of Western-style boots, power tools and a dozen cases of soda.

On Nov. 19, police officers arrested the Whites at the Redneck Heaven Restaurant and Bar in Arlington, documents say. Derrick White's red Chrysler 300 was parked outside the bar, documents say, and officers found a .380-caliber handgun. That Beretta pistol was confirmed to be one of the 600 stolen handguns, documents say.

Today -

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and Memphis Police Department are investigating after hundreds of guns were stolen over the weekend. According to the agencies, two men driving a U-Haul vehicle pulled up to the UPS facility at 1803 Brooks Road in Memphis and took off with 400 guns. They say the guns could be transported to other cities within hours.

From The Soufan Group and more direct than normal. BLUF:

• On November 7, a man with a handgun murdered 11 people inside a bar in Thousand Oaks, California.
• The Thousand Oaks shooting was the fourth such case in the U.S., with ten or more killed, since the start of 2018.
• The rate of these high-fatality attacks has increased, while overall crime trends remain low throughout most of the country.
• The U.S. is the only developed nation that produces and experiences this level of mass shootings as well as overall gun deaths.

Excellent presentation on the absolute failure of Law Enforcement to do their jobs and enforce existing laws.

UNPREPARED AND OVERWHELMED
Two decades after Columbine and five years after Sandy Hook, educators and police still weren’t ready for Parkland.

This is a one page summary of the work by the Behavioral Analysis Unit, dated March 2018. More of a starting point, even a poster / aide memoir for LE and others: https://info.publicintelligence.net/...renceGuide.pdf

Two years after the Las Vegas mass shooting, via ABC, the official Las Vegas Police report and the story starts with:

A new report detailing the handling of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history found a number of ways in which fellow law enforcement agencies may be able to improve upon their own future responses to their own active shooter and mass casualty incidents.

(Closes with and my bold) provide insight and drive positive change for first-responder agencies across the world.
