“On June 17, 2024, 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray was brutally murdered in Houston, Texas.”
The first of the section's four findings. Congress states the date, the age of the person killed, and the city. The word brutally is the section's own.
What the document actually says
“On June 17, 2024, 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray was brutally murdered in Houston, Texas.”
That sentence, in plain words
Congress says a 12 year old girl was killed. Her name was Jocelyn Nungaray. It happened in Houston, Texas, on June 17, 2024.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
