Uvalde school officials hired — and then fired — a former state trooper under investigation for her response to the May 24 school shooting. Greg Abbott said that the “school district had full information about the person they chose to go ahead and hire.”
It was unclear Thursday whether Elizondo was one of two DPS officers suspended with pay while the agency investigates them. DPS officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday.
District spokesperson Anne Marie Espinoza said in a statement Thursday that, “the audio is not consistent with the district’s expectations” and Elizondo “has been terminated from her position.”
