Emotions ran high in an Athens, Georgia courtroom as the murder trial for Jose Ibarra, an undocumented migrant, commenced. Ibarra is charged in the death of 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley, who tragically lost her life earlier this year.
Riley, a promising student who had recently made the dean's list at Augusta University's College of Nursing, was on her routine morning jog at the University of Georgia campus when she encountered Ibarra, according to prosecutors.
