Summary
Justin Duck, Captain with the Department of Public Safety, testified today in the Adrian Gonzales trial. Gonzales is charged with 29 felony counts of child endangerment for his response to the 2022 Robb Elementary shooting that left 19 children and two teachers dead.
Gonzales was the first officer on scene. Prosecutors say he knew the shooter’s location and failed to act. The defense argues he responded to a chaotic situation and did what he could. The trial continues in Corpus Christi.
