Jose Ibarra, the only suspect in the murder of UGA jogger Laken Riley, has been found guilty of all charges. There are ten in all: three counts of felony murder, as well as malice murder, kidnapping with bodily injury, aggravated assault with intent to rape, and “peeping Tom.”

In shocking testimony, University of Georgia Police Sgt. Sophie Raboud recounted the last moments of Laken Riley's life, breaking down the minutes into a timeline. Preparing for the last jog of her life, Riley reaches out to her mother by text at 8:55 a.m. asking if she is free to talk. At 9:03 a.m. Riley calls her mother. Laken Riley then listens to music and is seen on a trail camera at 9:05 a.m. She carries her iPhone in her left hand which is facing toward the intramural fields. At 9:06 a.m. Laken Riley runs out of view of the camera. Minutes after Laken Riley is last seen jogging on a trail camera she calls 911 by activating the SOS app on her iPhone at 9:11am. The 911 dispatcher doesn't speak with anyone before the call is terminated from Laken Riley's end of the call so the dispatcher calls back twice with no answer. Laken Riley's phone also receives a call from her mother at 9:24 a.m. and when Laken fails to answer the call, her mother sends a text at 9:38 a.m. "Call me when you can."

During closing arguments State Prosecutor Shelia Ross State reiterated each of the charges and the supporting evidence. Ross described Ibarra as “a monstrously guilty individual.”

Defense attorney Kaitlyn Beck offered two alternative theories, that DNA was transferred in the clothes strewn about the apartment, inferring Ibarra's brother Diego was the murderer. She also suggested that Ibarra may have been an accomplice, but not the murderer.

Ultimately, Superior Court Judge H. Patrick Haggard determined Jose Ibarra to be guilty on all counts.
