The deadly Texas floods have brought the state's approach to land approvals, especially in flood-prone areas, under more scrutiny.

Flash floods surged through in the middle of the night, but many local officials appeared unaware of the unfolding catastrophe, initially leaving people near the river on their own.

Virginia Hollis is one of the girls missing from Camp Mystic, according to a social media post from Bregman. She was staying in Cabin Twins 2 when floodwaters from the Guadalupe rushed through the campgrounds. Ellen is a missing Camp Mystic camper, according to her family.
