Uvalde schools police chief Pete Arredondo, who was in command during law enforcement’s response to the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School, was sworn in as a member of the city council on Tuesday without a ceremony. “Out of respect for the families who buried their children today, and who are planning to bury their children in the next few days, no ceremony was held,” Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin said in a statement.Arredondo’s ascension to city council comes just hours after the Texas Department of Public Safety said local police departments were not cooperating with its investigation into the massacre that left 19 fourth-graders and two teachers dead.
