On Friday, Uvalde school administrators suspended all of the district’s police activities pending two investigations. They cited recent developments that have caused concern as it pertains to department operations.

Both Lt. Miguel Hernandez (no relation to the author of this story) and Ken Mueller have been placed on administrative leave. Officers currently employed will not be terminated but instead be placed in other non-police roles in the district. Per the release, Ken Mueller has elected to retire.

The school district recently hired and then fired Crimson Elizondo after CNN broke that she was one of the first DPS troopers on the scene at Robb Elementary on May 24th. The district hired her to be a police officer for UCISD even after Texas DPS told the school district that she was under investigation for her response to the shootings on May 24th.

This is a developing story.
