The second individual, Adrian Gonzales, is also facing felony indictment, as reported by the San Antonio Express-News. However, Gonzales has not yet surrendered to the authorities and remains at large.

 

The horrific event on May 24, 2022, claimed the lives of 19 students and two teachers, marking it as the second-worst school shooting in American history. A damning report by the Justice Department earlier this year highlighted "critical failures" before, during, and after the shooting, noting significant deviations from established active-shooter protocols. The report stated children were left in the room with an active shooter for over an hour before police intervened.
