A woman sent a heartbreaking video to her boyfriend before she went missing from a Texas lake. 

Ashley Gil, 20, was pulled from the waters of Lake Houston on Thursday after she fell into the water while riding a jet ski with two others. 

Earlier that day, she had shared a video with her boyfriend, Jason Campos Rodriguez, capturing her riding the recreational watercraft while donning a life jacket.

Tragically, cops said, when she fell in the water she was not wearing a life jacket.

Speaking with ABC13, Rodriquez said: ‘My motive here is understanding everything that happened.

Jason immediately had a feeling that something was amiss. He mentioned that a fisherman nearby indicated that the group accompanying her did not appear to be urgently searching for her.

Recalling what the man told him, he said: ‘To be honest with you, they didn’t even pay attention. 

‘They didn’t even know when they lost her,  where they lost her, they looked like they didn’t even care.’

Rodriquez told KHOU that Gil was ‘careful and cautious’, with her death leaving him puzzled.

‘Seeing someone with such potential leave this world is incredibly sad. It’s difficult to come to terms with the fact that she’s no longer here’, he expressed.

He had been out of town for work when he received the horrifying news about her disappearance and death. 

The recovery of her body was confirmed by the Office of Commissioner Rodney Ellis on Thursday. 

A statement said: ‘I am deeply saddened to learn that the young woman who went missing on Lake Houston hear Alexander Deussen Park has been found deceased.’

It continued: ‘My heart goes out to her family, her loved ones, and everyone affected by this tragic loss.’ 

Houston Police had said earlier this week that there were three people on the jet ski when Gil fell into the water and didn’t come back up to the surface. 

They said that they don’t believe she was wearing a life jacket at the time, despite the video sent to Rodriquez.
