After being arrested for DUI in 2022, Alan Henry Gonzalez sought out and obtained the personal information of the California Highway Patrol officer involved in his arrest. He subsequently began repeatedly contacting the officer and members of the officer’s family.

This week, a Kern County jury found Gonzalez guilty of felony Stalking and Annoying Phone Calls, a misdemeanor.

The case was prosecuted by Deputy DA Klaudine Waldersen.

Beginning in July 2022, Gonzalez became angry and frustrated over the DUI arrest, obtained the arresting officer’s contact information, and later began repeatedly contacting the officer through telephone calls and text messages. Gonzalez used a phone application to conceal his actual telephone number and communicate with the officer through multiple different numbers.

The contacts eventually became increasingly personal. Gonzalez searched and obtained addition personal information pertaining to the officer. In one communication, Gonzalez referenced the city where the officer lived. During another series of contacts, Gonzalez sent the officer the exact residential address where the officer lives with his family. Gonzalez also contacted the officer’s sister-in-law. The conduct culminated in a message sent to the officer in which Gonzalez stated that he knew who the officer was and warned that being a California Highway Patrol officer would “not end good” for the officer or members of his family.

The investigation ultimately traced the telephone numbers used to contact the officer to an account associated with Gonzalez. Following his arrest, Gonzalez admitted that he had searched for the officer’s personal information, used an application to conceal his telephone number, and contacted the officer.

DA Zimmer commented; “Gonzalez’s conduct went far beyond a personal grudge. His actions jeopardized not only the officer’s privacy, but also the privacy and security of the officer’s family. No peace officer should be subjected to this kind of conduct simply for carrying out the duties entrusted to him.”

Sentencing is scheduled for October 23, 2026. Gonzalez faces up to 3 years in prison.
