On August 20, local time, an independent U.S. committee released its final report stating that the U.S. military and law enforcement agencies made multiple mistakes in their response to the mass shooting in Maine. The report stated that although the suspect in the shooting, Robert Card, was fully responsible for his actions, the military and law enforcement agencies also made mistakes in the shooting. Daniel Watson, chairman of the committee, expressed the hope that the Maine police would conduct a post-incident review.

On the evening of October 25, 2023, a mass shooting occurred in Maine, USA, killing 18 people. Maine Governor Janet Mills established an independent committee one month after the shooting. The committee, composed of former state judicial and legal officials and medical experts, held more than a dozen hearings and collected testimonies from local law enforcement agencies, military personnel, shooting survivors, families of victims, and families of suspects. The committee's mission is to "find out" the truth about mass shootings and reduce the risk of tragedies happening again. (CCTV reporter Liu Xiaoqian)
