Prosecutors said Tuesday that Nungaray fought back against her attackers, two illegal immigrants who allegedly lured her under a bridge where they sexually assaulted her before tying her up and killing her.
"The case is horrific. Jocelyn’s last moments were unspeakable," Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said on "America’s Newsroom." "She endured assault for multiple hours. This was a little girl who slipped out of her house to call her boyfriend, a 13-year-old, was seen by two immigrants who had been drinking all afternoon, they picked her up probably asking for directions and she was innocent. She walked off with them. We see footage from local stores that show they lured her under a bridge near a Houston bayou where they attacked her, strangled her and dragged her body into the water."
