Angry families of Uvalde school shooting victims demanded the resignation of Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw on Thursday during their first face-to-face confrontation with him. Nineteen students and two teachers died in the May 24 shooting at Robb Elementary School.
"If you're a man of your word, you'll resign," Brett Cross, whose son Uziyah Garcia died in the shooting, said at a public safety commission hearing in Austin. "We're not waiting any longer."
McCraw, who is in charge of dozens of state troopers who responded to the shooting, previously said he would step down if any of his officers had culpability in the botched response to the massacre. One trooper, Juan Maldonado, was fired last week for his inaction, and others are under investigation.
