This is a simulation of what went down in Parkland with a time clock, video from the cameras and the radio calls integrated. It's absolutely astounding how badly Broward County deputies failed those kids.
Read the story first and take note of some of the comments in the story (I posted a few below). Then watch the simulation:
** Note that there is a long silent period initially but sound will come on at the first radio transmission.
'The cavalry is here, I can let go': Inside the long wait for help at Parkland massacre

'The cavalry is here, I can let go': Inside the long wait for help at Parkland massacre
"When he saw us, he f---ing just ... he hit the ground," Wilkins said in an interview with Florida Department of Law Enforcement agents that was released Wednesday. "Almost like the cavalry is here, I can f---ing let go."
Then the BSO deputy "said something very stupid, okay, that's not reflected in my report," Wilkins said. "Which is 'we all can't stand behind this tree, we're gonna get shot.' "
"Don't go in. The shooter's right in that building right there," Cardinale said he was told by one of the deputies. "Be careful."
Cardinale had no choice. His son was a Stoneman Douglas student. His son was inside the building.
"F--- you," Cardinale responded. "I'm going in."
