Two Republican lawmakers have introduced a measure to improve the detention and tracking of illegal immigrants who enter the United States. The Justice for Jocelyn Act was introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas, on Thursday.
Cruz's office noted that the suspects were enrolled in the ATD program, meaning 'they were released into the interior of the United States despite the availability of thousands of ICE detention center beds.' The senator's office also highlighted the fact that one of the suspects 'was wearing an ICE GPS monitor at the time of Jocelyn’s assault and murder.
The suspects allegedly sexually assaulted Nungaray before strangling her to death after luring her below a bridge in Houston last month. Fox News' Brie Stimson and Landon Mion contributed to this report.
