Oklahoma police have arrested the mother of the student who killed 21 people at Robb Elementary School in Texas. According to police records, Adriana Martinez Reyes was arrested in Oklahoma City after allegedly threatening to kill the man she lived with.
During her arrest, 40-year-old Ms Reyes allegedly said she was the mother of “The one who killed all the kids in the shooting in Uvalde, Texas.” According to KBTX TVthis was the second time in a week that the police had been called to her home.
After an argument at home on New Year’s Day, police went to the same address to speak to Ms Reyes. Salvador Ramos, who was 18, killed 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde on May 24, 2022. Salvador’s mother is Mrs. Reyes. He also died in the same accident.
The mother of the Uvalde school shooter, Adriana Martinez Reyes, was arrested for threatening a man she lived with.
During her arrest, she stated that she is the mother of “the one who killed all the children in the Uvalde Texas shooting,” according to court documents.

The Uvalde Leader-News said she was arrested in June 2022 for criminal trespass and driving without a valid driver’s license. It said that when she got out of Uvalde County Jail, the families of the people she hurt met her.
She was filmed yelling back: “You have no right to judge my son. No you will not do that! No you will not do that. May God forgive you all.” The police had to take her into custody.
Even months after the shooting that shocked the country, not much was known about the family of the Uvalde gunman. Before attacking his old school, he shot his grandmother in the face.
Have a look at:
In the days following what her son did in May 2022, Ms. Reyes cried in her car and asked for forgiveness. “I have no words to say, I don’t know what he was thinking,” she told the Spanish-language channel Televisa.
“He had his reasons for doing what he did. Please don’t judge him. I just want the innocent children who died to forgive me. Forgive me, forgive my son. I know he had his reasons.”
The gunman’s grandmother, 66-year-old Celia Gonzalez, was released from hospital more than a month after the incident. It turned out that she had tried to get rid of the gun he used a few days before the incident.
