172 still missing in texas [View all]

officials admitted today they knew the number missing was much higher than they had been reporting.
110 dead.,most in kerr county but also travis,kendall,burnet,tom green and williamson.

during a press conference today ker county officials dodged questions of wether they sounded the alarm.

I have a couple of friends in travis county that lost everything . they are fine but their house is a total loss.

the kerr county officials should all be jailed.
