The funeral for Jocelyn Nungaray, the 12-year-old Houston girl allegedly killed by two illegal immigrants and left for dead in a creek, will be held Thursday. Jim McIngvale, known as 'Mattress Mack,' is covering the costs for the service and will host a celebration of Nungaray's life at one of his Gallery Furniture locations.
Nungaray was found strangled to death near a creek, a tragic incident that has shocked and angered local officials and raised questions about border policies under the Biden administration. Two illegal immigrants from Venezuela, Johan Jose Rangel Martinez, 21, and Franklin Jose Peña Ramos, 26, have been charged with capital murder for luring Nungaray under a bridge, sexually assaulting her, and ultimately killing her.
