#Stephanie Hale, Robb Elementary School teacher, continued her testimony.

●Hale told the jury she witnessed a person dressed in black with lolng hair near the playground, closer to the parking lot, on the south side of the building.

●Hale did not report seeing this person or the dust (which she thought was gunfire) to the Ranger.

●Hale entered a second-grade classroom with her third-grade students; the second-graders were not taking the situation seriously due to frequent bailouts (illegal border crossers causing lockdowns).

●The teacher described hearing a sound like a dumpster truck (later understood to be the shooter’s vehicle crashing), and later firecracker-like sounds.

●She received a text from her husband about an active shooter and took action to get her students to safety.

●She later clarified some details to a grand jury and prosecutors, including seeing the shooter and the dust from gunfire.

●Attorneys debated the importance and timing of her disclosures and whether her testimony should be excluded.

●The judge decided to strike her testimony and informed the witness that she did nothing wrong.

$Emilia “Amy” Marin, ACE Coordinator, Robb Elementary School

●Emilia Marin worked at Robb Elementary for one month and was present on the day of the incident.

●Marin coordinated a dance celebration with Mr. Gabriel and opened a locked gate for him around 11:20 a.m.

●While waiting by the gate, she heard a loud vehicle crash and saw a truck go into a ditch near the school.

●Marin ran inside to get her phone, locked the door, and called 911 to report the crash.

●While running toward the crash to help, she saw two men run from the funeral home; one said he had a gun.

●Marin informed the 911 operator about the armed individual.

●Marin ran back into the building, alerted a neighboring teacher, and told her to call the front office about an active shooter.

●Marin described the shooter wearing a black hoodie, black hair, throwing bags and a gun, and approaching the campus.

●The shooter was firing toward the south PE area where children were playing; children screamed and ran inside.

●Marin yelled for students to get into classrooms while on the phone with 911, asking where the police were.

●Marin described hiding in her classroom for 40-45 minutes, hearing continuous gunfire, and fearing for her life.

●On cross-examination, Marin explained her actions at the door, her limited view, and her knowledge of school safety procedures.

●Marin later learned the west door could not lock, discovering this years after the incident.

#Jose Hill, Eyewitness

● Jose Hill was getting ready for work when they heard a noise resembling a nail gun, which they thought could be a firearm.

● Hill looked out the window and took a video of the scene.

● The video was submitted to law enforcement as evidence.

●On cross-examination, Hill explained that the video captured about two seconds of the individual entering the school.

#Special Agent Huy Nguyen, FBI

●Crime scene investigators with the FBI’s San Antonio office arrived at Robb Elementary around 2 o’clock.

●There was a significant police presence and activity when they arrived.

● The team assisted Texas Rangers in processing the outside of the school, taking photos of evidence outside of the school. Their main focus was searching for casings, especially near a truck on the other side of the school.

● A line search was conducted on the west side of the school; no casings were found on the east side.

●Numerous casings and rifle rounds were documented around the west and north sides of the building, some close to the parking lot and funeral home.

●Photographs and evidence markers corresponded to specific items and locations, such as casings, a black glove, and an empty magazine. Evidence was collected in the order in which the items were found, not by their location.
