The superintendent for the Uvalde school district in Texas retired on Monday after a school board hearing at which relatives of some of the 19 children and two teachers shot to death at one of the district’s campuses in May again demanded accountability for the botched response to the massacre.
Hal Harrell, the retiring superintendent, said in a Facebook post by his wife that the decision to retire “has not been made lightly”, according to CNN. The post was no longer on Facebook as of Tuesday morning.
