Child in Texas 'took own life after class threats to have her family deported'
The Independent
|February 20, 2025
An 11-year-old girl took her own life in Texas after she was tormented by classmates who threatened to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities and have her family deported from the US, her grieving parents have said.

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza passed away on 8 February after spending five days being treated in a Dallas hospital. This came after she was taunted with deportation threats for weeks by sixth-grade classmates at Gainesville Intermediate School, around 70 miles north of Dallas, her mother Marbella Carranza told Univision.
Her death comes amid president Donald Trump’s ordering for the “largest deportation operation in American history”, prompting agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal authorities to launch targeted raids on approximately 12 million undocumented immigrants nationwide.
