The records were released after a settlement agreement was made between the city and news organisations, which was brought by the Associated Press, after they were repeatedly denied open records requests.

The massacre was one of the worst school shootings in US history. It has also been condemned as a massive failure of law enforcement after officers on the scene waited more than 70 minutes before confronting the gunman.

The shooting led federal lawmakers to pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, which implemented changes to the mental health system, school safety programs, and gun control laws.
