Journalists from the USA TODAY Network discuss translating into Spanish the Texas House committee’s report on the shooting at Robb Elementary School.

They blew it, and then they blew it again. When a Texas House committee released its report about the school shooting in Uvalde, it said getting accurate information to the community was a systemic failure that took "a very real toll on the people of Uvalde."

"That was told to us multiple times, that the back and forth, or the out of context, or the mistruths or half truths were harmful in and of themselves," said state Rep. Joe Moody, vice chair of the investigative House committee, while releasing the report Sunday. He said the community and policy makers can't move forward without "a stabilizing force of facts." Officials had failed.

Then they provided those facts, in a report written in English, to a community that is more than 80% Hispanic or Latino, where half of residents age 5 or older speak a language other than English at home. The Spanish-only speakers were left out. They failed again.
