Summary
Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, an 11-year-old girl from Gainesville, Texas, died by suicide after enduring months of bullying over her family’s immigration status.
Classmates allegedly mocked her and threatened to report her family to ICE. The school was aware of the bullying but failed to notify Carranza’s family.
Her mother, Marbella Carranza, only learned of the harassment after her daughter’s death and is now working with investigators and the school to understand what happened and why she was not notified.
The school never bothered to tell the parents their kid was being bullied.
Oh but being Texas they sure as F would’ve told her parents if she was expressing gender dysphoria right? Ye gods what a dumpster fire of a society.
The only reason any of those teachers even wanted her to get older was so they could tell the authorities if she ever missed a period. They’re an unsalvageable species in Texas.
RIP Jocelynn. The Hispanics should move out of Texas and watch the shithole collapse.
The MAGAts are sub-human shit.
The shitty MAGAts and their elected officials should be thrown out of TX. A lot of Mexican-Americans around there have been in the state for generations, some families live across each other on either side of the border. I get the sentiment, but it’s these racist assholes that need to be driven out.
Unfortunately, Texas does a great job of brainwashing a lot of people with Texan pride. Most of them are probably of the “Texas is the best” mindset.
There’s going to be so much blood on Rump roasts hands… I don’t know how he can look himself in the mirror. That’s okay. Karma’s a bitch. The next go around won’t be so easy for them, I’m sure.
Karma isn’t real, don’t count on it handling anything.
Straight up heartbreaking…
God damn , I hope these good Christians will burn in hell.
They’re celebrating. This is what they want. They want all Hispanic people gone. They never cared about immigration or legal status, they hate Hispanics and they want them all gone, and children are the Hispanics they hate the most. I don’t know if you’ve ever really listened to their rhetoric, but ‘‘I drove by a school and all the kids were Mexicans’’ is a BIG taking point on the right and has been for decades. They want out kids gone by any means.
I know, just around me that they can look at their black ass, hateful souls, “read” the new testament, and mental gymnastic themselves into believing they good, upstanding Christians.
This is the stupidest thing I’ve read all day. I’m Hispanic, nobody wants all of us gone. Stop fear mongering. This is an issue about illegal immigration, from any country.
You been Hispanic this whole time and you haven’t talked to one white person who hates all messicans. And all their kids? At the school specifically? Why do you live where you never talk to white people?
My grandparents came here legally and are super conservative, and they raised us the same. We don’t have any pity for illegals, from any country, even Mexico. Believe it or not, not every single Mexican thinks, acts, or feels the same. I know that’s hard to believe because a lot of us have been brainwashed to think only Democrats care. Trump doesn’t “hate Mexicans.” He’s trying to curb the illegal immigration problem, and the issue is, much of that problem is coming South of the border. This has turned into a “Trump hates all Mexicans!” propaganda machine from the Left, and it’s just ridiculous.
I’m willing to bet when your grandparents came here, it was a lot less difficult to enter the country legally than it is now. Why do you think we put up so many legal obstacles?
I’m sure it was, but are you saying that things should be easier to get into our country? I don’t understand this logic that the Left has… things are changing rapidly in our world, crime, drugs, human trafficking… are all issues that weren’t around years ago…our immigration policies are in place to try and regulate these things. Are you suggesting we should make it easier on people?
Has little to do with illegal immigration, its a veil for racism and bigotry for the vast majority.
Im a white guy, they might not say it you to be polite but they sure as fuck think i’m an asshole like them and are happy to say it to me.
Your white guilt must be killing you man. Throughout my entire life I’ve never one felt any kind of racism, from anyone but other Mexicans, who would talk down on my and my brother because we “looked white” and didn’t speak Spanish. Silly.
I never understood them. The American Southwest always had a very large hispanic population… I mean they were there before settlers from the US came along, even racist cartoons from the 1890s and 1900s showed hispanic looking people as being part of the culture there.
This isn’t a common problem, you have an isolated incident with stupid asses.
I’m athiest but deep down hope there is a hell. Just to see all those “christians” down there.
Unfortunately they won’t because it undeniably doesn’t exist and they know it too
The bullies are modern day Hitlerjugend
This is terrible. It’s sad, so sad. The USA is complicit for the deaths of the Gazan kids by Netanyahu already, and now this. This is how decadent hegemonies look like.
“It [the bullying] had gotten so aggressive, Carranza was meeting with a school counselor multiple times a week. Her family, however, was never notified.”
What the literal fuck. The bullies said the bullying wouldn’t ease up until her family got deported. She was meeting with the school counselor several times a week and the school didn’t separate the bullies out? They didn’t notify the parents? I hope people are held personally liable. Your beloved little girl taking her own life is an unimaginable tragedy.
The president is setting such a shameful example.
Nobody will be held liable. It will be spun as a horrible tragedy and the school will move on.
Even in my time the person who reported the bullying was treated worse than the bullies, and I’ve been out of school for a while. From what I’ve heard, it’s been getting much worse.
Seriously, the only way to defend yourself against bullying is to beat the crap out of the bully. And you will get repercussions for it, but the bully will think twice next time.
10000%
I was bullied for a long while in school, and much like this girl, went to school officials multiple times with no improvement (likely because one of the bullies had family in the school office). Nothing was done about the bullying until after I took matters into my own hands on multiple occasions.
I still vividly remember when I broke the nose of the office shithead and got called into the principal’s office and threatened with a long out of school suspension, only to get 0 consequences after my grandfather came in and told to principal that he would do no such thing, or there would be a LONG discussion with the local school board (he was a well known person in the community) about how he did fuck all about abuse in his school after repeated notifications and only tried to punish the victim after they defended themselves
I really enjoyed throwing that back in the bully’s face whenever he started his shit again, but looking back my grandfather basically cosigned the principal’s shitty behavior by not making that fucker pay for the shitty decisions he made.
He’s setting a shameful example while feeling shameless, that’s the part that boggles my mind… like the one day he signed more of his ‘executive orders’, upsetting who knows how many people’s lives again, then hopped away afterwards to go golfing.
Prolife. Smh
It’s just pro-birth. They don’t give a fuck after the cog I mean baby comes out
That’s what hit me the hardest too. This was completely preventable. The lack of response by the school is even more to blame than the bullies. The knot in my stomach wants to deck that school counselor.
I was thinking she can’t even sue, without risking her own precarious safety.
Do we even know that her mother is here illegally? The article doesn’t mention and kids are assholes.
I agree that the adults here are the most responsible, but I hope those kids understand the gravity of what they’ve done.
I hope that the family of Jocelyn files numerous wrongful death lawsuits. The school failed. the bullies and their parents failed.
It’s probably exactly zero consolation, but damn.
I hope it haunts them deep in their core for the rest of their lives and they live deep in moral debt in a futile attempt to break-even but simultaneously knowing they never will.
It won’t. Probably glad their is one less immigrant.
Whether this “breaks even” is a trolley problem, but it’s pretty easy to save lives. Just donate blood, mosquito nets, and vaccinations. It’s just paralyzing because you can’t save everyone.
They may not at 11 years old, but this is the sort of thing that sticks with you. We can only hope this teaches them empathy rather than fueling more of this sociopathic behavior they’re likely emulating from their parents.
Yet they pass these laws forcing teachers to rat on trans kids. Bet if this poor kid went by Carlos instead of Carranza they would have called right away!
These motherfuckers.
I don’t understand this. why would her last name being Carlos change anything? that’s not even a last name
I mean you could just figure out that I clearly misunderstood what her first name was.
ok I see I was a little confused
I hope the school is sued into bankruptcy. And that all the bullies are suspended indefinately. Why didn’t the councilor call the parents?
Disgusting. Fuck those hateful bullies and the parents who taught them.
Welcome to the new america, I guess.
same old racist america just with flashier gadgets
Rage. This is so incredibly tragic. I’m sitting here at 6:45 AM just crying when I should be getting ready for work. This is the type of world they’re trying to build.
This is the type of world that is already and needs to be dismantled.
And those responsible must not be allowed to reenter society and be forgotten. They cannot be simply ignored anymore. Fuck all of them and anyone who would support this. I wish we had the time as a society or as a planet for more options, but the clock is ticking.
“failed”.
What are the chances they just ignored it, intentionally?
I’m willing to bet that’s exactly what happened. Dollars to doughnuts these were MAGA bullies at a MAGA school with MAGA teachers/“leadership” and the adults either tacitly endorsed the bullying or participated in it themselves. They’re probably glad that she’s dead and (privately, if not publicly) laughing about it because it’s one less “illegal [pejorative]” polluting their white community. I genuinely think we’re at that level of near-genocidal dehumanization at this point.
Exactly. And it is Texas we’re talking about here.
Those kids should be forced to hear her name every morning they wake up for the rest of their lives.
Removing her from their lives was probably their intent with the bullying. Whether or not they considered death over deportation, they got what they wanted.
Maybe I’m too cynical as an outsider looking on to the US but I don’t think these kids will even remember her name in 5 years. Only that they succeeded in preventing whatever DEI /woke word vomit their parents and the media warned them about.
As a parent this is extremely disturbing. Not only for the topic but that the child felt the need to take her own life instead of asking for help.
On the other side I am very involved with my children and ask them constantly how school is going. If they are having issues they always tell me so I can help. My concern is the daughter did not feel like her parents would help which is why she did not tell them. She would rather take her life. These parents need to take a hard look at why their daughter didn’t want to come to them either this. My heart goes out to the family.
Maybe the daughter knew the parents were already anxious about the growing bigotry surrounding them. The school had already shown her it wasn’t going to help so she may have felt she’d be adding to a burden that her parents couldn’t do anything about. If you want to blame someone, the bullies and the school seem like the appropriate targets.
And yeah, lots of people think their kids tell them everything until they find out their kids are keeping secrets.
I know everyone here is going to be talking about Trump but there’s also the complete negligence of the school to talk about too. Bullying happens every day and it causes suicides all the time. Schools decide to take the easy path of ignoring it or blaming the victim every day too. Until there’s accountability for the staff and bullies this problem will keep taking the lives of children and we will keep raising kids who see violence as a legitimate means to get ahead.
Honestly seeing this problem makes me thankful I went to a very small school. Like there was only 200 students in the whole school. Which meant everyone knew everyone so if you were being a dick, 199 people would know about it. It helped bullying go away honestly so small schools are the way to go. Shame there’s a teacher shortage.
