On August 16, 2015, Gorocito was arrested along with another Necaxa player, Alejandro Molina, for hitting two young men outside a bar called "El Barezzito" in Aguascalientes, leaving them seriously injured, one of them died two months later from his injuries. The initial charges were for intentional homicide, although two years later in 2017, the defense managed to prove that Gorocito had not fought directly with him, for which the sentence was considerably reduced and he only faced charges for "culpable homicide generated in a fight." In August 2019, he was released after four years in a Mexican prison.[1]
