According to DPS, he was released on bond after being arrested in 2021 on suspicion of assault that impeded the breathing of a family member. A few days later, a warrant for parole violation was issued, followed by another warrant for assault.
His criminal history is extensive, with convictions for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, injury to a child, evading arrest, assault on a public servant, and robbery.
DPS says Gonzalez has known ties to the West Texas Tango gang, as well as ties to Midland, Texas, and Mexico.
