The teen, a junior at Saddle Brook High School, was taken to the hospital and died Monday---12 hours later.
“We can’t even fathom how this could have happened,” said uncle Vincent Costanzo. The teen’s phone has not yet been recovered, but they hope emails and text message can reveal what happened.

After she learned her friend died, Parisi said, “My whole entire body was in shock, I ran straight to my parents’ room and just cried.”
Friends told NBC that Costanzo’s death is the second loss for the family, as her father died more than six years ago in a motorcycle accident, NBC reported.
