Former Band Teacher Charged with Abusing Students

Former Shallowater school district band teacher, Joseph Gonzalez, faces a first-degree felony charge of continuous sexual abuse of a child. He is accused of abusing at least two students, with more potential victims suspected. The investigation began in February after the school districts police chief reported an improper relationship. Gonzalez, 27, was booked into Lubbock County jail with a bond set at $500,000. If convicted, he faces 25 years to life in prison. Authorities urge anyone with information to come forward.
