Murdered Mom and Daughter Remembered
By: Fox S.A. Staff
It's been almost a year since a woman and her daughter were murdered alongside a roommate in a house on Karen Lane that was then set on fire.
Tonight, friends and family are gathered at The White Rabbit on St. Mary's celebrating what would have been Rebecca Gonzales' 30th birthday. Gonzales, who was nicknamed Veggie, her daughter Sammy Ochoa, and their roommate Pamela Wenske were killed September 14.
Sammy's uncle was arrested on sexual abuse charges. The girl's father was arrested on pornography charges. However no one has been indicted on murder or arson charges.
Proceeds from tonight's event benefit Radkids, a local children's safety and empowerment program.

HOUSTON (AP) -- New estimates show Texas has eight of the nation's 15 fastest-growing cities.
Estimates released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau show San Marcos in Central Texas led the way with a nearly 5 percent population boom between July 2011 and July 2012. That's the highest rate among U.S. cities with at least 50,000 people.
Of the 10 big U.S. cities with the largest gains, half are in Texas: Houston, San Antonio, Austin, Dallas and Fort Worth. Only New York added more people than Houston, which now has a population of nearly 2.2 million after adding more than 34,500 people.
Midland; Conroe, just north of Houston; and the Austin suburbs of Cedar Park and Georgetown also are among the fastest-growing in the country.
