Reply to comment by turtle_stank in Should Virginia help pay to rebuild Fox Elementary? What happens if lawmakers say 'no'? by CrassostreaVirginica

But didn't the fire department get an alarm and show up before the structure was engulfed in flames? And left? Am I remembering that right. Seems like it's not all on RPS at that point.

They got a call from someone walking by and did the best they could with the information they had

They lied. They said they checked the building twice and found nothing. The camera shows them upstairs for under 3 minutes. There is no way, in the entire 11 minutes they were in the building, they checked it twice, with thermal gear.

They did not do their best, and the video shows them just milling about. They jimmied the lock because they were worried about the fire alarm, but then did not check the building. Not saying schools bares no blame.

And then the school burnt to a crisp moments later.
