The case against Adrian Gonzales is a rare example of an attempt to hold a law enforcement officer accountable for their actions during a mass shooting. Former school district police chief Pete Arredondo also faces charges over the tragedy, but will be tried separately. A total of 376 officers -- border guards, state police, city police, local sheriff departments and elite forces -- responded to the massacre, a Texas state lawmakers' report said in July 2022. The shooter, identified as 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, was reportedly killed by law enforcement at the site of the attack. Judge Sid Harle said he expected the trial in Corpus Christi, 200 miles (320 kilometers) from Uvalde, to last around two weeks, ABC News reported.
