One of the immigrants accused of killing little girl Jocelyn Nungaray wants the story kept out of the media spotlight, as his lawyer argues it is “likely to produce an undue prejudice result.”

The attorney for Venezuelan Franklin José Peña Ramos is seeking a protective order to prevent Houston officials from making “out-of-court statements” or publicly disclosing any information about the case, according to KeynoteUSA, which obtained a copy of the filing.
Peña Ramos, 26, and Johan José Rangel Martínez, 21, who entered the country illegally at the southern border, are charged with capital murder.
They are accused of luring Jocelyn under a bridge in June and assaulting her for two hours before strangling her to death and dumping her bound, naked body in a Houston swamp.
Her story quickly became part of the national conversation about the border amid a series of high-profile crimes perpetrated by illegal immigrants.
In its recent filing, Peña Ramos’ legal team accused Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg of making “numerous statements about the case that went beyond the prosecutor’s statements during the probable cause hearing,” according to the report.
The documents cited Ogg’s previous statements in which he said: “Make no mistake, this is a horrific crime” and “the immigration system is broken.”
A spokesman for Ogg’s office declined to comment.
