Former Galveston police officer Jared Rivas has been indicted on eight charges, including two counts of injury to a child, one count of unlawful restraint of a child, one count of official oppression, and four counts of assault causing bodily injury, following an incident at a pool party on June 25. Rivas, who was working off-duty as a security guard at the Island Bay Resort apartment complex, was caught on video assaulting a teenager and others. The Galveston Police Department terminated Rivas after determining his actions were inconsistent with departmental training and values. Families of the victims are pursuing legal action, and the district attorney's office has committed to prosecuting the case vigorously. The incident has significantly impacted community trust in the local police department.
