The arrest comes after indictments were filed for Gonzales and former Uvalde School District Police Officer Chief Pedro "Pete" Arredondo. “Our firm represents Adrian Gonzales. He will be self surrendering so the judicial process can move forward. It is very early on, in our representation, so we will be working to acquire the evidence, the government is relying on, in this accusation. Mr Gonzales’ position is he did not violate school district policy or state law. The application of this statute, to law enforcement, under these circumstances is unprecedented in the state of Texas.

The charges are related to their response to the Robb Elementary School shooting, which occurred at the school on May 24, 2022. Nineteen children and two teachers were killed in the massacre. More than 370 officers were present on the day of the massacre and waited more than an hour to confront the gunman.He has since posted bail and has been released from the Uvalde County jail.
