The Mexican commander at Goliad during the Texas Revolution was General José de Urrea. He led Mexican forces in the campaign against Texian rebels and was involved in the Battle of Coleto, where Texian forces, commanded by Colonel James Fannin, surrendered. Urrea's subsequent decision to execute the captured Texians at Goliad, known as the Goliad Massacre, became a pivotal moment in the conflict, galvanizing support for the Texian cause.
