Biography

I am a Houston-based mother and advocate. In June 2024, my 12-year-old daughter, Jocelyn Nungaray, was tragically murdered by two illegal immigrants, individuals we soon discovered who had been detained by Border Patrol and released into the U.S. within 24 hours. Her death was entirely preventable. As a survivor of the devastating impact of violent crime, I’ve made it my mission to be Jocelyn’s voice. I work to raise awareness about the dangers of unchecked immigration policies and to stand with other families affected by violence especially against children.
