Venezuelan Biden “immigrant” Jose Ibarra was found guilty today on all 10 charges he faced in the murder of nursing student Laken Riley.
Judge H. Patrick Haggard sentenced Ybarra to life in prison without the possibility of parole. That means this 26-year-old Venezuelan thug will be an unnecessary expense to Georgia taxpayers for at least the next 20 years, unless he dies or is killed by then.
President Joe Biden, Ybarra's accomplice in crime, and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who refused to deport Ybarra, who is an illegal alien. And New York City, which flew the killer to Georgia, will face no repercussions.
Ibarra was caught crossing the border and released in 2022, heading to New York, where he quickly got into trouble with the law, but of course was not charged with any crimes. Police arrested the violent criminal for child endangerment, but that arrest was reversed and the Biden administration rewarded him with a work permit.
At the urging of her brother Diego, Ybarra and her roommate boarded a taxpayer-funded flight from New York to Georgia, her female roommate told the court.
murder case
It was there in Athens on February 22 that Ybarra killed Laken Riley, who was jogging alone on a forest path near the University of Georgia campus.
“Prosecutors described a harrowing struggle in which Ms. Riley dug her nails into her arms and neck as she tried to fight off her attacker, leaving deep scars,” The New York Times reported on today's verdict and sentencing. It was reported that.
Prosecutors then said Mr. Ybarra dragged her off the running track, where he strangled her and hit her over the head with a rock, using it “like a hammer,” said Sheila, the special prosecutor who led the case.・Mr. Ross stated. In her closing argument.
“The evidence in this case clearly identifies him as Laken Riley's killer,” she added.
Ybarra's hapless lawyer had to argue that Riley could have been passing Ybarra. He also tried to pin the blame on his criminal brother Diego.
“Prosecutors used technology such as cell phone data and running watch tracking data to provide a detailed account of the attack and the frantic search by Riley's roommate and authorities to find her that morning. The Times continued.
Riley started running just after 9 a.m. and ran at high speed while listening to music. But after about 10 minutes, she activated the emergency function on her iPhone and called 911. One source said the phone went silent for nearly a minute before a man could be heard saying in Spanish, “Yo tengo,” or “I'm here.” The recording was enhanced by investigators.
By 9:28 a.m., her smartwatch was no longer detecting Riley's heartbeat.
A judge ruled this morning that prison phone conversations between Mr Ybarra and his wife, Rayling Franco, were inadmissible.
“What happened to the girl?” she asked the killer. Mr. Ibarra denied knowing anything about it.
“No, no, no, no, you're not going to come here and lie to me,” Franco told the sociopath. “I know you. You know something, don't you?”
Haggard convicted Ybarra of the following charges: Felony Kidnapping with Bodily Injury, Felony Murder during Aggravated Assault with Intent to Rape, Felony Murder during Aggravated Assault, and Aggravated Assault, Kidnapping with Bodily Injury; and a separate charge of aggravated assault with intent to commit rape. .
He also found Mr. Ybarra guilty of tampering with evidence, peeping, and obstructing or impeding an emergency call.
Biden, New York City complicity
Biden and Mayorkas also knew something: Releasing Ybarra and other illegal aliens would be dangerous. Someone could be raped or worse, murdered.
they didn't care.
Border Patrol agents detained a Venezuelan miscreant. Unfortunately, due to long-standing orders from Biden and Mayorkas, they illegally released him in September 2022.
Upon arriving in New York, he shared a room with a woman named Rosebery Flores-Bello in an “immigrant” shelter. In September 2023, she and Ybarra requested a flight to Georgia, where Ybarra's criminal brother Diego lived, she testified.
New York City paid for the tickets, sources told the New York Post. The Times reported that the two “flew to Atlanta on September 28, moved into an apartment in Athens, and five months later Flores-Bello heard police coming to arrest her roommate on suspicion of murder.” I woke up.''
President-elect Donald Trump pointed to the Biden administration's illegal immigration policies as a reason for Riley's murder.
“We love you, Laken, our hearts are always with you,” he wrote to Today X.
It's time to secure our borders and rid our country of criminals and thugs so something like this never happens again.
The Times and other open border media outlets said Trump has “falsely” claimed, as the paper put it, that “many of the immigrants are violent criminals.”
But President Trump was right, and he was right, as the Biden administration's own data shows.
In September, U.S. Representative Tony Gonzalez of Texas released Immigration and Customs Enforcement data showing approximately 650,000 criminal illegal aliens are at large in the United States. Of those, 13,000 were murderers and 25,000 were sex offenders like Ibarra.
There are many victims of Biden's illegal immigration policies. They include Jocelyn Nangaray of Houston, Texas, and Kayla Hamilton and Rachel Morin of Harford County, Maryland.
Like Riley, Maureen was walking alone on the street when she was attacked and killed.
