Who is Adrian Gonzales?

edit

Apparently Adrian Gonzales has been charged with 29 counts of child endangerment, but the charges are the first mention in the article of someone of that name. Who is he that he gets these charges? (I suspect he was one of the otherwise unnamed officers, but which?) It might also be nice to know why he gets so many more charges than the chief.

Gonzales is mentioned & identified multiple times in the article:
  • in the infobox twice, once as being a 'responding police officer' and once as being charged 29 times with felony abandoning or endangering a child.
  • He is identified by name as a former officer 4 times in the Legal proceedings section along with 4 sources to verify those facts.
  • He is again identified in the subsection about the Uvalde Police Chief Pedro Arredondo.
The information about the indictments is fairly new, I do not know why Gonzales was indicted on so many charges, Some further research is in order or ask the Grand jury and the prosecutor. - Shearonink (talk) 14:58, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
The first infobox reference is as an "Accused Responding police officer", which tells us he was there, and that others apparently didn't like what he did. Everything else notes him as being indicted, arrested, etc. He is also noted as "another former officer", so we know he has been dismissed or resigned. Alas, there is nothing in the incident about him. (And one reference reads "Gonzaelez".) David Garfield (talk) 01:26, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
