Texas schoolgirl, 11, took her own life for the cruelest reason. Now her mother is demanding answers
Daily Mail UK ^ | February 19, 2025 | Maryann Martinez

A grieving Texas mother says her 11-year-old daughter took her own life after classmates threatened to call Immigration and Customs and Enforcement (ICE) to have her deported.

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza was found unresponsive in her home in Gainesville, Texas, on February 3 and spent five days in intensive care in Dallas before passing away.

It's unclear how the girl hurt herself, but her family believes relentless bullying drove her to suicide, according to a GoFundMe page.

'The kids said because your family is Hispanic, that they were going to call ICE so her parents could be taken away and she would be left alone,' grieving mother Marbella Carranza told the local Univision station.

The bullying went on for months, according to the single mom of six, with the sixth grader seeing a school counselor to report the bullying.

However, the mother claims she was never made aware of the torment her daughter had been enduring until after her death.

'The school was aware of what was going, but they never informed me,' Carranza, who earns a living by cleaning homes, told the outlet.

'She apparently went once or twice a week to the counselor to report what was happening,' the mom stated.

'I want justice because it was an oversight by the school not to have told me what was going on.'

“or who hurt her...”

Point taken.

She’s a single mom. Maybe mommy’s new boyfriend did something and she’s trying to cover it up?

Gainesville, Texas has a rep for being populated by a bunch of thugs - I can only vouch for the last 60+ years...

"Don’t you just love stupid criminals?"

LOL!! I had a 25 year career in uniform in NY State's prison system. Stupid criminals guaranteed me a paying job.

We officers had a saying back then: "These convicts aren't in prison because they're smart."

It sure as hell is the schools job to protect children while they are on school grounds. And you calling an 11 year old girl, a snowflake because she was upset at being tormented by bullies is despicable.

She shouldn’t have been there in the first place. Parents own this for breaking the law.

Doubtful. I seriously believe anything will happen to her. She should perhaps sue the bullies and their parents instead of the school. Bullies are often hard to detect because they are also cowards who do not want to get caught. They will bully behind the teachers back. It’s the parents and bully brats who are to blame.

Bullies are more often hard to detect because they are also cowards and will act behind the teachers back. They do not want to get caught. The parents and the little bastards are the ones to blame. A teacher may have 30 kids in a class, can’t watch all of them at the same time. Also when a bully does get caught, they will be meaner next time. Best thing is to teach kids self defense. I personally knocked teeth out of a bully. He never bothered me again, and I got respect from the other kids.

Fake news...if a true story, tell the illegal immigrant supporters to tell their clients that life is tough in America if you are here illegally.

Makes me think she will get deported now that she is on ICE’s radar for sure.

This article doesn't mention this girl's SEVEN siblings, all doubtless living on OUR dime. Deport them all, then there is no prejudice against them. They are grifting criminals, but the libtard press is trying to make them objects of sympathy. If they hadn't come here, the girl would still be alive.

Considering the long history of Americans of Hispanic heritage in Texas and the entire southwest? I agree.

The demographic makeup of the school district is 62% Hispanic. If the non-Hispanics were the bullies, and why would her own kind not step in to stop it?

What does that have to do with an eleven year old girl?
