Venezuelan immigrant Jose Ibarra, accused of killing Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, is set to face trial in November. Riley was murdered during a run on the University of Georgia campus in February. Ibarra, who entered the US illegally in 2022, faces multiple charges, including malice murder, felony murder, kidnapping, and aggravated assault. The defense has requested to move the trial to another county, arguing that it will be difficult to find an impartial jury due to extensive media coverage.
