A shocking incident at a Beauvais cheerleader party, which left two young boys fatally shot and injured, has drawn national attention as new details continue to emerge.
Allegations against the cheer coach are surfacing, and each day reveals more about the dangerous circumstances surrounding the event.
According to a social media post, the party, advertised openly on Instagram, featured a flyer with half-naked cheerleaders posed on a bed, the party start time, the host cheerleader’s Instagram username, and an invitation to the pool and BYOE, “Bring Your Own Everything”, apparently meaning alcohol and drugs.
The social media post further indicated that guests were explicitly encouraged to bring the worst, and tragically, that is precisely what occurred.
Likewise, the night turned violent, leaving two young teenage boys shot. Authorities are investigating the roles of both the hosts and attendees, with many questioning how such an event escalated to this level.

Adding to the controversy are allegations that personnel from CCISD may have instructed cheerleaders to destroy evidence related to the party.
Should these claims prove true, the situation would expose a concerning new level of misconduct.
As this story unfolds, more revelations are expected, raising serious questions about oversight, responsibility, and the culture surrounding the event.
Families Rally for Justice After Beauvais Cheerleader Party Shooting, Hosts Charged with Providing Alcohol to Minors
In the wake of the violent Beauvais Drive house party that left two teenagers, Jaden Lopez and John Gomez Jr., shot, families and community members have taken to the streets demanding justice.
The tragic event, which involved a party for Veterans Memorial High School cheerleaders and their friends, has sparked rallies and protests calling for stricter accountability for those responsible.
Robert and Misty Perez, the couple who rented the home, now face criminal charges for furnishing alcohol to minors.
The Class A misdemeanor carries penalties of up to $4,000 in fines and a year in jail.
Families and activists argue that these charges, while important, are only the first step toward ensuring the safety of the community’s youth.
During the protests, participants highlighted the dangers of unsupervised parties where minors have access to alcohol and drugs.
Signs and chants emphasized that the tragedy could have been prevented and called on law enforcement and school officials to take stronger preventative measures.
Social media rumors falsely implicated CCISD Superintendent Dr. Ronald Hernandez’s wife, Cynthia Hernandez, in the party.
The district clarified that she and her husband were returning home and were blocked by the heavy traffic of first responders and party attendees.
As protests continue, community members are urging local authorities not only to hold the hosts accountable but also to investigate any potential oversight failures, sending a clear message that the safety of minors cannot be compromised.
