[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we go back to the 15 minutes that the principal spent on hold when he called the police? Is that really the hold time for 911 these days? The school timeline says the event happened at 12:47. The police timeline says the call was dispatched at 1:14. If the principal was on hold for 15 minutes, did it then take another 12 minutes for the call to be dispatched or was there also a delay in calling police? One of the news outlets needs to use the MPIA to get the 911 call and the police radio traffic. This doesn’t add up. [/quote]

I came back to see if there was any clarification on this 15 minute wait. First of all, I don’t believe it so what exactly did they wait 15 minutes for? Was it for the police to arrive?[/quote]

I love how people who weren’t there dealing with the situation at all go so out of their way to try to make the response seem problematic.  It all sounds pretty efficient to me.[/quote]

What planet do you live on?

I’m asking because waiting on hold for 15 minutes to make contact with the police is not efficient.

“While making contact, administration remained on hold for approximately 15 minutes before connecting with law enforcement.”

I’ve had to call the police a few times and I’ve never been on hold. I’ve had to call 911 and I’ve had to call the nonemergency and the calls have always been picked up immediately and I’ve always spoken to somebody right away. So no, on hold for 15 minutes is not efficient so I’m thinking there’s more to the story or, the letter was not written accurately. And that is why I’m asking for clarification.[/quote]

Who cares?  I have a child there and know security and admin are strong.  They dealt with the situaiton as best they could given the resources they have.[/quote]

So you don’t think it’s worth investigating why it took 15 mins to connect with MCPD when there is an active threat?
