Illegal Alien Pleads Not Guilty to Murdering Laken Riley, Prosecutors Will Not Seek Death Penalty
Will this Human Stinking Garbage end up walking?
The illegal alien accused of murdering 22-year-old Laken Riley has pleaded not guilty to ten counts, including murder and kidnapping. Prosecutors said they will not seek the death penalty.
On Friday, 26-year-old illegal alien Jose Antonio Ibarra of Venezuela pleaded
not guilty to ten counts related to the murder of Laken Riley, who was
found brutally beaten to death on the University of Georgia (UGA) campus
on February 22.
The District Attorney for the Western Judicial Circuit will not seek
the death penalty against Ibarra, instead seeking life in prison without
the possibility of parole.
Ibarra was indicted
on May 8 for felony murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault with
intent to rape, kidnapping with bodily injury, obstructing a person
making a 911 phone call, and tampering with evidence.

Prosecutors allege that on February 22, when Riley went for a morning
jog, Ibarra kidnapped her after preventing her from making a 911 call.
Then, Ibarra allegedly attempted to rape Riley before brutally
strangling her and beating her until she was dead.
Riley’s body was found the same day in a wooded area on the UGA campus.
Prosecutors say that on the day Ibarra allegedly murdered Riley, he
spied on a different UGA student by looking through his/her apartment
window.
Riley’s murder has sparked nationwide outrage over unfettered illegal
immigration to the United States on President Joe Biden’s watch.

As Breitbart News reported,
according to his case file, Ibarra was first encountered at the
U.S.-Mexico border near El Paso, Texas, on September 8, 2022. Department
of Homeland Security (DHS) officials cited “detention capacity” as the
reason Ibarra was awarded parole and released into the U.S. interior
despite there having been available detention space.
On July 19, 2023, Ibarra reported to Immigration and Customs
Enforcement (ICE) officials in New York City for a biometric appointment
where he was fingerprinted. The results of those fingerprints showed
that Ibarra had a prior criminal history, his case file states.
On September 14, 2023, Ibarra was arrested for acting in a manner
that could injure a child. Despite the charge, Ibarra was not
prosecuted, and the arrest was expunged.
Two months later, in November 2023, Ibarra applied for an Employment
Authorization Document (EAD) with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services (USCIS). On December 9, 2023, Ibarra’s work permit application
was approved.
Less than three months after securing the work
permit, Ibarra was charged with Riley’s murder. Ibarra remains in the
Clarke County Jail without bail.
