Teacher Tells Court She Saw Officer Accused of Failing to Delay Uvalde School Massacre: ‘He Just Stayed There’

Adrian Gonzales faces 29 child endangerment charges over the Robb Elementary shooting response; trial testimony revealed delays and unlocked classrooms, inciting courtroom outbursts.

  • On Jan. 5, jury selection concluded and testimony began the following day in Corpus Christi for former Uvalde CISD officer Adrian Gonzales, who faces child endangerment charges.
  • The charges arise from the May 24, 2022 shooting at Robb Elementary, when prosecutors say Gonzales failed to act despite having time, information, and recent active-shooter training.
  • On the trial's sixth and seventh days, emotional testimony from Arnulfo Reyes and other teachers was heard, while Velma Lisa Duran, sister of Irma Garcia, was escorted out after yelling.
  • Judge Sid Harle responded by disqualifying the woman from the gallery, instructing the jury to disregard her outburst, and noting child endangerment is a state jail felony with sentencing by Harle if convicted.
  • After a 2025 venue change, the trial moved to Nueces County with prosecutors expected to call approximately 60 witnesses; Pete Arredondo, former Uvalde CISD police chief, faces 10 child endangerment charges.
