Jose Ibarra, the illegal migrant gang member who killed Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, was found guilty on all ten counts Wednesday morning.
President-elect Donald Trump reacted on TRUTH Social:
JUSTICE FOR LAKEN RILEY! The Illegal who killed our beloved Laken Riley was just found GUILTY on all counts for his horrific crimes. Although the pain and heartbreak will last forever, hopefully this can help bring some peace and closure to her wonderful family who fought for Justice, and to ensure that other families don’t have to go through what they have. We love you, Laken, and our hearts will always be with you. It is time to secure our Border, and remove these criminals and thugs from our Country, so nothing like this can happen again!
Fox News border correspondent Bill Melugin says the Biden Administration failed Laken Riley “every step of the way.”
“Government failed Laken Riley at every step of the way,” Melugin said on X. “Her killer was in federal custody after crossing the border illegally, then released. He was released again in sanctuary city NYC after an arrest – ICE not notified. Then NYC gave him a taxpayer funded flight to GA, according to his partner’s testimony. It’s unacceptable at every single level. RIP Laken Riley.”
