Kayla Cuevas, 16, and Nisa Mickens, 15, who were lifelong friends and classmates at Brentwood High School, were killed with a machete and a baseball bat in 2016.

The deaths of 16-year-old Kayla Cuevas and her 15-year-old friend Nisa Mickens sparked Rodriguez into becoming a leading voice against street gangs.
