Dear
MindWars I listened to her in the video but this was very short and she wasn't asked questions in a lot of detail, so this can esasily be taken out of context.
It is possible she ran into Cruz after he already did shooting, dropped his weapon and blended in to escape.
the gunshots fired elsewhere could be police or swat firing who knows.
You are right, that this could be a case of picking and targeting the most obvious suspect
to calm down the school and public that the shooter has been apprehended.
I guess it depends if any of the surviving witnesses, or the VIDEO and phone cams,
capture Cruz doing the shooting and nobody else. they can't surpress all the videos that were taken.
the authorities are asking for all such footage so they can ascertain who was doing the shooting when.
they have no reason to suppress info.
that will make them look bad.
they are making problems for themselves if they don't piece togrther
the most comprehensive consistent timeline they can, as the public
and people affected will not settle for anything but a solid answer.
if you think authorities have time and energy to play games,
you are sadly and sorely mistaken. they have their hands full,
so only consistent reports are going to help and anything less is wasting their time and energy
they can't afford to waste when they are overwhelmed.
