How they died
Less-than-lethal force
On April 12, Gonzalez was asleep at a friend's home, according to the family, where deputies showed up to enforce the county's then emergency shelter-in-place order. The family claims as a result of his encounter with the deputies, Gonzalez suffered a broken neck and compressed spine. They allege one witness, who they didn't identify, said the deputies were on top of Gonzalez during his arrest. In his mugshot, Gonzalez's head appears to be held up by someone outside the frame of the photo. The Texas Rangers are investigating.
