Duniesky Gonzalez Crimes In Texas

Per KETK, Gonzalez was taken into custody with two others, Camila Cruz Concepcion and Ramon Perez-Torres. The three stood accused of interfering with gas pumps in Texas. How they affected the pumps was by messing with the pulser.

After meddling with the pulser, they paid for 1/20th the price for diesel fuel, instead of the normal full price. Using this, the three stole an estimated 9,312 gallons in the year of 2022. They also would use credit and debit cards that were not theirs to pay for the fuel taken.

Senior Investigator at Texas Financial Crimes Intelligence Center, Jeff Roberts, said of the thefts:

“As a good citizen if you’re pumping gas and you realize you filled up your tank for five dollars please report that to the gas station.”

In 2023, the three were taken into custody. Now Gonzalez has recently been sentenced for his crimes.
