Friday morning, Jose Antonio Ibarra’s trial for the murder of Laken Riley in Athens is set to begin with opening statements, but the court setup will be different than most trials.

Jose Ibarra, the Venezuelan man who entered the U.S. illegally two years ago, is charged with murder and other crimes in Riley’s February killing.

The man accused of killing a nursing student in Georgia earlier this year "went out hunting for females" on the day Laken Riley was killed, prosecutors told a judge Friday on the first day of Jose Antonio Ibarra's murder trial.
