Summary
Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, an 11-year-old girl from Gainesville, Texas, died by suicide after enduring months of bullying over her family’s immigration status.
Classmates allegedly mocked her and threatened to report her family to ICE. The school was aware of the bullying but failed to notify Carranza’s family.
Her mother, Marbella Carranza, only learned of the harassment after her daughter’s death and is now working with investigators and the school to understand what happened and why she was not notified.
This is unacceptable. We need to do better.
How many more will we lose as the bully culture grows?
Be careful saying that around Texas. They might take it as a challenge.
Texas, you say. Hm.
What I don’t understand, is why there is more than one mass shooting every day in the US, but it’s just some working class lunatic killing other working class people.
Now if we can only get all the other people with brown skin to do the same. -Repubs
