Oh this mama and all this girl’s family needs to get some closure for this 😭😢 My heart are with them. May Lizbeth’s memory be bright and comforting to everyone who knew her.
This hurts… l hope they find answers 😢
😞😞😞. This poor young lady. May God bless her mother. Condolences to the family and friends. No mother deserves this. Hope they have info about who did this.
This doesn’t make sense at all.
No forced entry?
The mother doesn’t look grieving to me.
Unpopular opinion I’m sure-but you wait…
From the looks of mom it could very well be a fight over who was using the other’s makeup
Watch your kids…you people underestimate how dangerous social media and these devices can be. Doesn’t matter abiut how mature they are, the access to social can be detrimental especially to young women. People must stop underestimating it and stop allowing your children to roam these streets and get into too much without you knowing. This world is fast and takes younger people under faster.
She was messing with the wrong person. Probably a drug dealer.
chickenhead
@@donarthiazi2443 🐤🐤🐤
So much makeup, that’s against the Bible!
💕🙏💕
An illegal alien killed her. He has been arrested.
Bummer man,,, that’s a that’s a bummer mannn
These are usually from a family member.
Quick to point out her death, but no explanation of how. Typical sick twisted MEDIA. Its all about the death, not the cause.
The killer is black or an illegal immigrant. I absolutely guarentee it.
That’s so sad.
How much money are you willing to bet its a spaniard male in his late teens?
@@Vrypor So an immigrant? 😂
@Vrypor Spaniard is a stretch bud. These people ain’t from Spain
Maybe a Mayan descendant. Or Guatemalan 🤷♂️
Possibly Haitian for all we know anymore.
@@user-ev1bn5im4u idek, all of them derived from spain lol, i just pointed to origins
SOUNDS LIKE A MAINTENANCE WORK FOR THE PROPERTY..
So sorry for your loss.RIP Lizabeth.
Suspicious story.. no evidence.. according to my spidey senses I think it’s someone from school she brought a friend from over they argued.. & this happened, guy or girl probably.. they already had a problem that they were dealing with.. or she didn’t want to go as far as the other person wanted. So sad though RIP🥀
Classmates are saying she was pregnant and refused to go along with her boyfriend’s wish for her to have an abortion 🙁
Well, update.. they found the alleged killer, & he looks some what older I don’t know if he’s a teen from her school.. I guess it could have been just been a crazy man preying on an innocent girl.. ya’ll be carefull..!!!
🕯️
No sign of force entry maybe she knew the killer and let him in unaware of what was about to befall her
_”him”?_
You’ve never heard of Yolanda Saldívar huh?
boyfriend, maintaince worker or neighbor.
Maybe an opportunist? Mailman, ubereats driver, etc
Another informative and professional piece from NBC news.
😂
Did you expect them to solve the crime? Or just release more details that only the police know?
@@kenbob1071weird how other networks have already mentioned the killer being an illegal migrant yet this one can’t
Look at the friends and boyfriend. Even the parents too.
So she was murdered at home, why was no one home?
She was there. She’s someone
Being a mother of a little girl, my heart breaks for this mother. No one is ever prepared to lose their child. Its the hardest thing a person can go through. That poor girl, she was so beautiful. This is just so tragic.
She didn’t lose her she was murdered that’s so much worse and what’s even worse is God allowed it
@@JuanCatalan-sl6tsGod didn’t allow this to happen. The Devil is behind this.
@JuanCatalan-sl6ts my 38 year old fire and rescue son, was murdered in March on duty. Some jealous someone. I have never blamed God. He gives people free will. Do good or evil. My son was a hero too many. His murderer better be found and justice done. I ask God for help. And it will come. Her precious daughter and my son are in a beautiful city now, in heaven. We will need again. Losing a child is beyond pain. My heart aches for this mama. We sir. Are in a spiritual war. God has a method to deal with this. It’s in the bound book of His Word, the Bible. We need our hope we a loved one is taken. I pray you sir, find hope.
HHAHAHAHHAHAHA WHAT
Dude what.@@JuanCatalan-sl6ts
Mom did it.
Hmmm did Yolanda Saldívar get released from prison 😂😂
Being a cheerleader in Texas is dangerous
Why
Sending prayer’s for the family am from Victoria tx
The mother sounds pretty together considering she just lost her daughter.
Sus?
Where is the father… Bet it was lack of discipline and lack of self protection knowledge… Or mentally unstable either way sounds avoidable so I don’t feel bad
If she was murdered with no sign of entry that usually points to someone she knew or had access to the house… hopefully they get the person found and dealt with accordingly
First thing I’d be asking is who is mom dating or who has she dated.
Story makes no sense she must have invited some guy in who she did not know.
I’m guessing she witnessed something she shouldn’t have
Teen was found inside the bathroom in the bathtub by her mother hours after she started looking for her , what I don’t understand is that the mother stated that she came from work changed her ” muddy ” clothes and got ready to go to the parade where her daughter was supposed to be, left her house went to the parade didn’t saw her daughter in there started looking for her went back into their apartment and saw her daughter’s leg sticking out of the bathtub and called the police to report the finding, now my question is during the time that she was changing her work clothes and getting ready to go to the parade she never once went inside the bathroom? I am not implying that she was involved in the incident , but… 99.9 percent of females will always use the Bathroom at least once while getting ready to go out , may her beautiful young soul rest in peace and may justice be brought down swiftly on those involved in this heinous crime .
Im about 90% sure it was the mom. She didnt seem too upset about the whole thing.
There were probably two bathrooms.
I’m only making an observation – the mother sounds like she’s crying but there’s no tears. Monitor the mother closely.
My condolences to the family 😢.
Texas is a third world country. No control no order.
IT WAS AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT!!!!!
I pray she knew Jesus Christ before she died. In Jesus Name amen.
Insane.
Is it weird she has no tears? How is she able to even talk about it like this? Something is off.
yeah immediately I noticed she was off
Exactly
The sad part is our liberal friends in the world that prefer not to stop illegal entries to what’s left of our country. Sorry US citizens they don’t care.
Get internal & external cloud-based cameras
Just not gonna mention it was illegal immigrants??
Either Texas or Florida. Figures.
Aren’t you a ray of sunshine 🙄
Oh Momma I am so sorry. It’s not your fault. You didn’t let her down. Honey, there are MONSTERS everywhere and sadly we don’t always see them. Treasure your memories of your beautiful girl. Think of a good nemory when a dark thought comes. Chase it away with her gorgeous smile. This is a horrible thing no Mother should ever have to bear. She looked like a glowing light. My thoughts and prayers are for You. Let your loved ones hold you up through this. Hugs from A Colorado Mountain Grandma
💔🥀🕊️💫✨🌌🌟🌹
God bless the girl with the big heart of gold 💛 and her Mom and loved ones! 😇🙏💙
Why would they investigate as a capitol crime? No signs of forced entry!
Mom did it.
Hmmm seems like somebody did want her to participate in the parade. Investigate the school.
My heart and prayers are with this grieving mother. I understand unfortunately how she feels. I lost my 23 yr old daughter last May. My heart is forever broken 💔 & lost. We should not have to bury our child. God be with her family & friends 🙏 ❤️ 🕊
My heart’s sympathy Dear Mom. Nobody should have this done to their child. No Mother should have to bury a child. How are you doing? You can get my Email off my info. I’m truly sorry and I care about how you are. Please be cautious, there is darkness everywhere. Let me know if you wish to. 💔🌹🕊️💫🌌
I too am sorry for this mother and all of us mother’s who belong to the club of murdered children. It’s harder than a child being in a wreck or dying from an accident. A mother’s instinct is to protect her children.
God bless you all.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊️
I also lost my son last may . He had just turned 19 in January.
@@LatoyaMitchell-il3rl poor mothers. God bless you. We carry them within us. Nature them and take joy as they grow. No one can know the loss of a child in the same way as a mother does. My prayers for us all. Blessings.
Everyone needs a doorbell camera at home.
Doesn’t add up, no forced entry, her mother didn’t take her to her shindig but still went to be seen, she wanted to “protect her daughter from the world,” which is something everyone who has ever taken their own childs life has said, her lack of genuine emotions….
Ok I had to go back and watch five more times but the mom is a little suspicious. No tears and she says something funny at the end about not being able to protect her in their home, it’s the way she says it IDK.. Could be she’s been medicated so she can function, and that’s why she’s flat. Can’t call it.
Condolences 💐 Prayers 💕✌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
🙏🏽
God bless that mother and family. I cannot imagine what they are going through ❤️
We did it Joe!!
Ouch, that’s so sad. But the sister shouldn’t blame herself for what happened. Things happen after all. Blaming yourself puts a lot of stress on you. Poor girl, I wonder who was the one who killed her.
You mean mother? Also bet it was something like a boyfriend or love interest, at the very least she probably knew the person who attacked her because the lack of evidence for a forced entry. It makes me sick but I’m guessing she was assaulted before the attack. I really really hope that wasn’t the case.
Hope they find her killer soon, they need to be brought to justice. The story has really hit a nerve with me, think it’s because I think about the mother and her discovering everything. Also because the girl had so much ahead of her and to think that someone took that from her, her friends and her family.
It was an illegal..
@@arizonagirl6474 ok?
@@sayonfoxx8862 Okay? Wow…
Incel!
💜🌹💜🌹💜🌹💜🌹
Uvalde showed a nation the quality of policing texas does not have, hearing the rangers are on it brings me worry rather than confidence.
She probably killed herself.
No surveillance cams on the property watching every entrance corridor 24/7 ? It amazes me. It’s so totally outdated in this day and age to NOT have that …
Texas is a fun state
this sounds fishy ? apartment complex and no cameras ? no ring door bells ? give it a week
They’ll Get Who did This Please Mom They are going to be Caught with the Help of the Tx Rangers Dear
💔😪⚖️
In the Ghetto, that happens. Sad sick people.
Hope its not a insurance job ,mum was looking and sounding very suspect in that interview?!? Sure hope im wrong !!
Obviously an overdose.
Thank you. Without knowledge and faith to believe; I’d be a wreck. May Gid bless this mother through faith. Thank you.
Greasers
Condolences 💔 to this family.
Sounds like the girl killed herself.
NBC WANTED BIDEN AND HIS OPEN BORDER WHICH CAUSED THIS AND MANY MORE CRIMES 🤡🤡🤡🤡
This is so sad! Was it someone she knew? The mom will have to relive finding her- for the rest of her life! May God be w/you & your family- at this time!!!!!🎉😮
I am beyond confused so the mother left her home to see her daughter in a parade, she didn’t see her daughter in the parade, then found her daughter dead in the tube. If the mother wasn’t taking her to the parade and did the mother and daughter speak to each other before the mother left the house?! But, if the girl was getting a ride from someone else or even her mother. Wouldn’t the mother try to get ahold of the girls friends about why the mother didn’t see her daughter in the parade?! Either way my condolences to the family and friends of the young women. I couldn’t imagine how hard it would be how painful it would be to loose your child. ❤
Payback
Did you raise her without her father in her life and taught her how to be an entitled little brat? A lot of you single “mothers” don’t think about things like that. Huh?
How do you even think of putting makeup on during such a tragedy. They say the worst pain is the death of your own child. But this one isn’t even shedding a tear and has layered everything from foundation to lipstick on.
They caught him.
He’s 23
He’s “not from here”
R.I.P
You have wearied the LORD with your words. But you say, “How have we wearied him?” By saying, “Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delights in them.” Or by asking, “Where is the God of justice?” (Malachi 2:17, ESV)
WESTERN CIVILIZATION NEEDS TO STOP AND REVERSE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE SAID IS OKAY WHEN GOD SAID NO TO IT.
Prayers for the family. To many innocent lives are taken early in life by evil SOB😢
Killed by an illegal immigrant. The blood is on Joe Biden’s hands. The blood is on Mayorkas’ hand.
May God bless us all .I ask that we cherish life & never take it for granted. Live everyday like it was your last cause you NEVER know when it’s over. My prayers go out to this beautiful human being & her family. R.I.P. 🙏✨
Better check out the mothers of the runner-up cheerleaders! White Texas gets really weird over football and cheerleading. Might be the beginnings of another cheerleadercide episode.
Murderer is from where?? Border still open??
Democrats policy gains another murder victim.
Something isn’t right. At all.
It was another illegal let into this country by Biden! If this illegal was kept out this young girl would be alive today!
We gotta know who’s coming in here guys. Not everyone is a nice person. That poor family.. God be with them. That could’ve been any of us.
I don’t know why they don’t blame Biden it was one of his family members
Build that wall
Happens everyday sad but not special
Undocumented means Illegal Immigrant.
12 million Illegals roaming around the country right now, destroying our home.
Lord have mercy
Men protect…where’s her father.
Idk! This story just doesn’t add up or make any sense ? Sound’s like a Suicide to me.
