The question I ask is "are the agencies really working together to share this information?"

Is there a pipeline designed to pass this information from the schools to the appropriate authorities? From the school stand point, it seems like they did what they could within their limitations. I'm sure the local resource officer knew of the situation and did their job properly, but is there a formal line between school and local/state/federal authorities for people like this?

Because as far as I know, there only seems to be an informal one in my area. One of the functions of schools needs to be to identify dangerous people and have them monitored.

Of course we can then ask "well, what did this guy do [as an adult] that was illegal prior to this to allow the authorities to step in?"
