A judge in Athens, Georgia, Wednesday reached a verdict for Jose Ibarra, the illegal alien accused of murdering Augusta University student Laken Riley on the University of Georgia campus in February.
Despite pleading not guilty, the suspect was found guilty of all 10 counts, including one count of malice murder, three counts of felony murder, one count of kidnapping, one count of aggravated assault with intent to rape, one count of aggravated battery, one count of hindering a 9-1-1 emergency call, one count of tampering with evidence and one count of being a peeping Tom.
"Laken Riley herself has given you all the evidence you need alone to find this man guilty of every single count in this indictment," prosecutor Sheila Ross said Wednesday in her closing statement. "She did fight, and it is a direct result of that fight that gives you all the physical evidence you need to convict him."
