Jocelyn Nungaray, 12, was raped on night of murder, Houston authorities confirm, making the two illegal immigrants charged in her death eligible for the death penalty
A 12 year-old Texas girl was raped before being murdered by two illegal immigrants, police say.
Jocelyn Nungaray suffered a sex attack prior to her killing last month, the medical examiner in Houston confirmed two weeks after her slaying.
Houston prosecutors have been awaiting forensic evidence of a sexual assault since a second crime on top of murder would make the two Venezuelan men accused of killing her eligible for the death penalty.
Johan Jose Rangel Martinez, 21, and Franklin Pena, 26 are charged with capital murder in Nungaray's death.
They accused of luring the girl underneath a bridge where they stayed with her for two hours before the men emerged alone.
Her body was found the next morning after she had been strangled, bound and thrown in a bayou. She was naked from the waist down.
The men met Jocelyn, who had snuck out of her house on June 16, as she was walking to a 7-11 around 10 p.m. June 16.
The men walked to the store with her and later under the bridge. Investigators have yet to say which of the men they believe raped Nungaray before her death.
