Brianna Aguilera, a 19-year-old Texas A&M student from Laredo, was found dead outside an apartment complex on Saturday at 12:47 a.m., after attending a Texas A&M vs. UT tailgate in Austin. Police say she was pronounced dead on the scene, with “no indications of suspicious circumstances.”

But Stephanie Rodriguez, Brianna’s mother, insists there is far more to the story.

“This was not accidental someone killed my brie,” Rodriguez wrote in a Facebook post. “My daughter would not jump 17 stories from a building and to be labeling this as a suicide is insane.”

“My daughter loved life and was excited to graduate and pursue her career in Law,” she added.

The Austin Police Department said in a statement, “At this time, the incident is not being investigated as a homicide, and there are no indications of suspicious circumstances.”

However, the details surrounding Aguilera’s death are not adding up for Rodriguez, and she believes foul play was involved.

For starters, Rodriguez said she had been trying to contact the police department for several hours before getting the call at 4:00 p.m. on Saturday that her daughter was in the morgue and had been identified through fingerprint analysis.

“No one reached out to me, I was the one who had to place several calls to Austin PD because I couldn’t locate her,” Rodriguez said, adding that she was told she could not file a missing person’s report because it hadn’t been 24 hours.

Rodriguez’s concern for her daughter started when Aguilera’s phone went on Do Not Disturb around 6:00 p.m. on Friday, which she says was “weird.”

“We always had this rule that if she was going to go out, she had to have her phone on ‘location on’ and answer her text[s] to at least let me know she was OK,” Rodriguez told KGNS.

What makes this case particularly intriguing is that Aguilera’s phone was later found in a friend’s purse by a creek, the location where Rodriguez initially told the police it was “pinging.”

Rodriguez also told KSAT that Aguilera had been fighting with another student earlier that day, saying that she even provided text messages to the detectives. She said there were around 15 people in the apartment, but it was a bystander who stumbled upon the body.

In her Facebook post, Rodriguez addressed those she believes are involved, “… all the group of friends [had] a lot of time to come up with the same story … How is it that certain friends left immediately and the person who was living at the apartment complex vacated her apartment ASAP.”

A GoFundMe set up by Aguilera’s family echoes the continuing confusion regarding the case: “The details surrounding what happened next remain unclear, and her mother is still awaiting answers.”

While the case is not being investigated as a homicide, the investigation is ongoing, and the police are waiting on an official cause of death from the Travis County Medical Examiner’s Office.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that he is resetting federal fuel standards that were used by President Joe Biden’s administration to impose severe regulations on American car manufacturers.

The president unveiled the changes in the Oval Office, promising that the reset of the Biden-era fuel economy standards will save American families a combined $109 billion. The president said he will realign the standards with real world market conditions.

“Combined with the insane electric vehicle mandate, Biden’s burdensome regulations helped cause the price of cars to soar more than 425%, and in one case, they went up 18% in one year,” Trump said. “Today, we’re taking one more step to kill the Green New Scam.”

The president added that his administration’s action “is expected to save the typical consumer at least $1,000 off the price of a new car, and we think substantially more than that.”

Trump was flanked by Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy as well as Republican lawmakers and the CEOs of major American carmakers Ford and Stellantis.

“Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg illegally twisted mileage standards to create an electric vehicle mandate — jacking up car prices for American families and forcing manufacturers to produce vehicles no one wanted,” said Duffy. “I’m proud to stand with President Trump in the Oval Office today to say that those days are over. This administration understands the freedom of every American family starts with affordable cars. That’s why our new standards will make that dream more achievable by letting auto manufacturers produce the cars that fit families’ needs at a lower price.”

Trump’s move was praised by auto leaders, including Ford CEO Jim Farley, who said in a statement ahead of the announcement, “As America’s largest auto producer, we appreciate President Trump’s leadership in aligning fuel economy standards with market realities. We can make real progress on carbon emissions and energy efficiency while still giving customers choice and affordability. This is a win for customers and common sense.”

Farley said in the Oval Office that Trump’s move will allow Ford to “invest in affordable vehicles made in the U.S.”

“We believe that people should be able to make a choice” between gas-powered, hybrid, and electric cars, Farley added. “And we will invest more in affordable vehicles.”

Under Biden’s rules, auto manufacturers were required to increase fuel efficiency to an average of around 50 miles per gallon for vehicles by 2031. The Trump administration took immediate action to eliminate the former president’s policies of fuel efficiency, and shortly after Duffy was sworn in as Transportation secretary in January, he signed an order to roll back Biden’s fuel economy standards.

Biden’s stringent rules, which were imposed under the 1975 Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards, worked as a “backdoor electric vehicle mandate,” according to the Trump administration. The White House argues that the reset of fuel economy standards “will realign” the Corporate Average Fuel Economy program with what Congress initially intended and will take a major burden off of car manufacturers.

Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa said the Trump administration’s move would also give Americans more freedom when shopping for vehicles.

“We look forward to working further with [the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration] on environmentally responsible policies that also allow us to offer our customers the freedom to choose the vehicles they want at prices they can afford,” Filosa said.

A spokesperson for General Motors said in a statement on Wednesday that it supports the goals of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s proposed rules as well as its “intention to better align fuel economy standards with market realities.”

“We have long advocated for one national standard that upholds customer choice and provides the auto industry long-term stability,” the spokesman said. “As we review the proposal, we remain committed to offering the best and broadest portfolio of electric and gas-powered vehicles on the market.”
