Deputies said Gonzalez was scheduled to make a first appearance at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, but she did not. Her defense said that she was “extremely agitated” that morning and correctional officers had to use a Taser on her. Gonzalez’s first appearance was rescheduled for Monday.

Luis Lara said he has lived along Windy Dune Court for nearly two decades. He said nothing like this has ever happened on their street before.

“Surprise, surprise. I never see nothing here. It’s a very quiet area,” Lara said.

Lara said deputies were at the home all day.

“I see police putting yellow tape around,” he said.

Deputies haven’t released any information about what happened, and they haven’t identified the victim.
