Nearly four years after the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, a former school police officer is now facing criminal charges for his actions that day. Adrian Gonzalez is charged with 29 counts of child abandonment or endangerment, accused of failing to take action while a gunman was inside the school. In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down what prosecutors say Gonzalez should have done, how the defense is framing the chaos and confusion of that morning, and why this case is raising a far bigger question. When does a failure to act become a crime? This trial is only the second time in U.S. history that a police officer has been criminally prosecuted for a school shooting response, and the outcome could have nationwide implications for law enforcement accountability.
