I'm fairly certain that original Church was confirmed dead by Burnie. But they never did say what happened to original Tex, or if this Tex is the original. But then again I could be wrong. I think Washington said that he knew that Tex was an AI like Church, but that she was dead anyway, which didn't make much sense as the only EMP mentioned besides the Warthog was in the freelancer base.
