<p>An illegal immigrant has been arrested in connection with the murder of a 16-year-old Texas high school cheerleader named Lizbeth Medina, whose slain body was discovered in a bathtub in her home by her mother this past week.</p>
<p>Jacqueline Medina found her daughter, whom she described as “loving, kind and big-hearted,&#8221; in their apartment on Tuesday after Lizbeth missed a Christmas parade with her cheer squad in Edna, Texas.</p>
<p>“There was no laced drugs, there was nothing like that. My daughter was found in a way that no mother should ever find their child,” Jacqueline <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/12/10/news/person-of-interest-sought-in-death-of-texas-teen-cheerleader-lizbeth-medina-found-inside-apartment/#" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. “I lost it. She was my world, my everything. Everywhere, everything I do was for her.&#8221;</p>
<p>“Words can’t explain what I felt at that moment finding my daughter in the matter that she was,&#8221; she added. &#8220;All I can say is that I hope with all my heart that there is justice for my daughter.”</p>
<p>The circumstances of Lizbeth&#8217;s death remain unclear, and currently no autopsy report has been made public.</p>
