A memorial fundraiser for Brianna Aguilera, the 19-year-old Texas A&M University student who died after attending a tailgate in Austin, has more than doubled its original goal. Her family is publicly challenging the police investigation and demanding accountability.

As of Tuesday, the GoFundMe campaign, organised by Aguilera's cousin, Amabelii Fernandez, on behalf of her mother, Stephanie Rodriguez, has raised over £21,000 ($28,000), far exceeding the initial £9,000 ($12,000) target. The funds were set up to help ease the financial burdens during what the family describes as an 'unimaginable loss'.
