In the days and weeks since the horrifying Uvalde, TX, massacre at Robb Elementary School, more and more scandal, speculation, and questions have begun to arise surrounding the police response to the mass shooting — after 18-year-old Salvador Ramos was able to barricade himself inside adjoining 4th-grade classrooms, where he remained for over an hour and shot and killed 22 human beings before the classroom was finally breached by a special Border Patrol tactical unit that was able to successfully take the shooter out.
In recent days, footage from inside the school showing the response of police officers in the building, moment by moment, has raised even more questions and, frankly, anger as we watched countless law enforcement officials essentially stand around aimlessly as children were being murdered.
In fact, one of them even stopped to put on some hand sanitizer.
And now… The Daily Mail knows who he is.

The Daily Mail reports on the exclusive development:
DailyMail.com can reveal the officer dubbed ‘hand sanitizer cop’ is Uvalde County Sheriff’s Deputy Eric Gonzales, 30. Exclusive photos show Gonzales attending mass Sunday at the Getty Street Church of Christ in Uvalde, Texas, with his wife and two children.
Upon leaving the morning mass, the casually-dressed cop opened the door of his black Chevy Silverado for his young daughter and wife. He then drove to the local Dairy Queen, went through the drive-thru and spent about 30 minutes in the parking lot before heading back home.
When he arrived home, a DailyMail.com reporter attempted to speak with him about the events at Robb Elementary and why he used hand sanitizer. He waved the reporter off and instructed his family to get back into his truck and sped off.”
In their report, the publication also reveals the alleged identities of “the first seven police officers who arrived just minutes after shooter Salvador Ramos entered Robb Elementary.”
