Pete Arredondo steps down from Uvalde City Council

This asshole was responsible for a number of children and maybe a teacher dying because he was too much of a coward to confront the Uvalde shooter without additional and unneeded equipment

Embattled Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Chief Pete Arredondo is stepping down from his new post on the Uvalde City Council.

Arredondo told the Uvalde Leader-News on Friday that he is resigning from his seat on the City Council. Arredondo, the police chief of the Uvalde , was elected to the District 3 council position in early May.

He was sworn into the role in a private ceremony a week after the May 24 mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in which an 18-year-old gunman murdered 19 elementary school students and two teachers.

The police chief has come under a firestorm of criticism for his handling of the shooting and the lengthy delay that took place before Uvalde peace officers, Department of Public Safety troopers and federal Border Patrol agents killed gunman.
