Man accused of killing Georgia nursing student Laken Riley waives jury trial | Attorney Analysis
11/13/24 • 14 min
The man accused of killing a nursing student on the University of Georgia’s campus is expected back in court.
Laken Riley's body was found after a friend told police she had not returned from a morning run. Jose Ibarra, an undocumented immigrant, was arrested the next day in connection to her death.
The case quickly became a flashpoint in the national debate over immigration.
Meanwhile, another high-profile trial in Georgia continues. Prosecutors are trying to prove Rappers Shannon Stillwell (SB) and Deamonte Kendrick (Yak Gotti) are part of a criminal street gang known as Young Slime Life. Defense Attorneys argue YSL is not a gang, but a record label called Young Stoner Life.
Atlanta Attorney Suri Chadha Jimenez joined ANF+ to weigh in on both trials.

Florida Gulf Coast University’s (FGCU) Karl Smesko will lead the Dream in what they hope will be a “new” and “dynamic” style of play.
Smesko has the third-highest winning percentage (.843) among active coaches in NCAA Division I women’s basketball history. He brings more than two decades of head coaching experience to the Dream.
The Dream fired Tanisha Wright last month. She was 48-68 in three seasons. The team was eliminated from the first round of the WNBA playoffs in back-to-back seasons.
