As a courtesy to Arredondo’s grieving family, he asked that the public swearing-in ceremony for his new position on the Uvalde City Council, which was scheduled to take place on Tuesday, be kept “hidden.”

Following the shooting that took place at Robb Elementary in Texas the previous week, authorities with the Texas Department of Public Safety informed The News God that Arredondo, who they claim was the on-scene commander there, was not collaborating with their investigation into the police response.
