Former President Trump Calls Mother Of Murdered 12-Year-Old

Former President Trump made a heartfelt gesture by calling the mother of Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old girl who was tragically murdered in Houston. The call took place just minutes before Trump's debate with President Biden, leaving the mother reportedly 'shocked' by the goodwill gesture.

Jocelyn, who was laid to rest earlier that day, was allegedly strangled to death by two illegal immigrants. The suspects, Johan Jose Martinez-Rangel, 22, and Franklin Jose Peña Ramos, 26, are facing a capital murder charge with a bail set at $10 million each. Both men entered the U.S. illegally from Venezuela near El Paso, Texas.

During the debate, Trump mentioned his conversation with Jocelyn's mother, expressing his condolences and promising to reach out to her again. He highlighted the issue of illegal immigration and referenced other murder cases involving migrants.

A White House spokesperson extended sympathies to Jocelyn's family, emphasizing the need for accountability in such heinous crimes. The case, which prosecutors say shows signs of sexual assault, remains under investigation.

Trump criticized President Biden during the debate, particularly focusing on the situation at the southern border. He accused Biden of creating a border crisis and transforming the U.S. into what he described as a 'rats' nest.
