The Stalking and Strangling of Laken Riley

  • Summary

  • Laken Riley was a 22 year old nursing student at Augusta University in Athens Georgia. In February of 2024 she was out for her normal morning jog. Listening to music, texting her mom, telling her friends where she was. She did everything right, but still fell prey to a dangerous predator. José Antonio Ibarra, a 26-year-old Venezuelan man who lived on her route, watched and waited for her to arrive. On the trails of Oconee Forest Park, he struck. Not even an open line to 911 could save her in time. Her loss went on to devastate a family and outrage a country.
