GOP revives illegal immigrant detention bill named after 12-year-old murder victim: ‘Justice for Jocelyn'
Fox News
GOP lawmakers in the House and Senate are pushing again for legislation to require that all ICE beds are filled before illegal immigrants are released into the U.S.
The bill would require that every ICE detention bed be filled before any releases of illegal immigrants into the interior. Even if they are filled, the bill would require DHS to exhaust all additional measures before releasing migrants into the interior, including enrolling them in continuous GPS monitoring via ankle bracelets or similar devices.

The bill is named for Nungaray, who was killed last year. Two illegal immigrants face capital murder charges and are accused of luring her under a bridge, tying her up and killing her before throwing her body into a river.
