From the New York Post: Texas on Tuesday offered up more land to the incoming Trump administration to build deportation facilities — naming the project after a 12-year-old girl allegedly raped and murdered by two illegal migrants.
Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham, standing along a portion of the state’s border wall, said her office is expanding its earlier offer by adding more identified land that could be used by the Trump White House “on Day One” to hold violent criminal illegal migrants before they are deported from the US.
Buckingham said the project has been named the “Jocelyn initiative” to honor the life of preteen Jocelyn Nungaray, who was allegedly raped and murdered by two illegal migrants and suspected Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang members released into the US earlier this year.
“The new project that the general land office is gonna embark on that I have created is the Jocelyn initiative, in which we will locate appropriate land under my jurisdiction to lease for the construction of violent criminal deportation facilities,” Buckingham said — speaking next to Jocelyn’s mom Alexis and grandmother Jackie.
Buckingham recently announced that Texas has offered the Trump administration a 1,402-acre piece of land along the border, which the state had purchased, to aide Trump’s deportation efforts.
On Monday, Buckingham announced:
I’m here on our newly acquired 1,400 acres in Starr County, proudly offering this land to President @realDonaldTrump’s administration to help facilitate the largest deportation of violent illegal criminals in history.
Construction on Texas’ state border wall is underway. My office and I are committed to securing our southern border and protecting our communities.
Stay tuned for big news tomorrow at our press conference, where we will announce a major initiative to secure our southern border!
