Two illegal aliens have been arrested in the murder and possible rape of a 12-year-old girl in Texas.

So it must be a day that ends in “y.”

Just a few days after an illegal alien from El Salvador was arrested for the murder of a Maryland mom, Johan Jose Rangel Martinez, 21, and Franklin Jose Pena Ramos, 26, were arrested and charged with murder after 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray was found strangled to death in a creek this week in Houston.

Both are Venezuelan nationals who recently crossed President Joe Biden’s open border in El Paso, Texas, just months before police said they killed their victim.

Pena Ramos illegally crossed into the U.S. in May, according to the Department of Homeland Security. After being apprehended by Border Patrol, he was released into the U.S. with a Notice to Appear in court. Rangel Martinez crossed the border illegally last March and was caught by Border Patrol, only to also be released.

Investigators said Pena Ramos and Rangel Martinez lived in the same apartment complex as the victim, and were seen on surveillance footage talking with Nungaray at a nearby 7-Eleven, the last place the girl was seen alive. The two men then walked the girl to a nearby bridge and murdered her before dumping her body and returning to the apartment they shared, police said. Evidence suggests Nungaray was strangled to death, and it’s not clear whether she was sexually assaulted before she was murdered.
