Authorities say two undocumented migrants from Venezuela are under arrest in the killing of a 12-year-old girl in Houston. It was the latest example of undocumented immigrants arrested for violent crimes. But studies show immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than citizens. NBC News' Gabe Gutierrez reports.
The White House and Biden campaign responded Friday to the death of a 12-year-old girl in Houston after two suspects charged with capital murder were found to be undocumented migrants. Jocelyn Nungaray was discovered Monday in a shallow creek after being strangled to death, according to the Houston Police Department. A White House spokesperson said “our hearts go out to the family and loved ones of Jocelyn Nungaray.
Former President Donald Trump is blaming the Biden administration's border policies for Nungaray’s death. On Thursday, he said on Truth Social that “we have a new Biden Migrant Killing — It’s only going to get worse, and it’s all Crooked Joe Biden’s fault.' The Biden campaign hit back, pointing to Trump's role in sinking a bipartisan border deal in Congress.
