Tonight, chilling new details in the murder of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray in Houston. Two Venezuelan migrants, 22-year-old Johan Jose Martínez-Rangel, and 26-year-old Franklin Peña, charged with capital murder after authorities found the body of Jocelyn strangled. These monsters took that opportunity from her, from our family, of watching her. According to a motion filed by prosecutors, the men spent at least two hours with a minor, tied her and dumped her body under a bridge where neighbors found her hours later. Prosecutors sharing details, they say, came from the phone of one of the suspects and his own admission.

At his arrest, he had a bite mark on his arm and scratch marks on his arm. Did say that he did tie her up and that he suggested that they throw her in the Bayou to get rid of any DNA. Penya stated that he just kissed her and then helped throw her in the Bayou, that Martina's Rangel did everything else.

According to our Houston affiliate, one of Jocelyn Switzerland's family members shouting murder, and I hope they kill your children in Spanish at Martínez Rangel, as he left a bail hearing on Tuesday. An attorney for Penya telling NBC Houston earlier this week, he is very remorseful for the situation that he finds himself in. Attorneys for Martínez Rangel have not responded to MBC's request for comment. According to a nice spokesperson, Martínez and Peña were apprehended by Border Patrol after entering the country illegally earlier this year. Both were released with notices to appear to continue their legal process with immigration, but it isn't clear when they arrived in Houston. The case now becoming a political flashpoint.

These monsters should never have been in our country. If I were President, they would not have been in our country with a strong border.

A Biden campaign spokesperson responding to attacks levied by Trump on social media, writing in part, Donald Trump is making Americans less safe by blocking the border deal. The White House sending condolences to the family, writing in part in a statement, Anyone found guilty of this type of heinous and shocking crime should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Jocelyn's grandfather calling for change as the family mourns her death.

It shouldn't have happened. And how do we stop it? It's by asking our leaders to change the system. Immigration needs to get redone.

All right, Guad joins us live tonight from Atlanta. Guad, are these suspects still being detained? What punishment could they face if found guilty? Tom, the suspects are being held under a $10 million bond. Under the current charges, prosecutors cannot seek the death penalty. But according to the district attorney, this is an ongoing investigation. If any evidence or the pending results of a DNA test kit show that the victim was sexually assaulted or kidnapped, that would change everything. The prosecutors would then be able to seek the death penalty. Tom.gwad Vanegas, First Night, Gwad. We thank you.
