Trial begins for suspect in Laken Riley's killing. Here's what to know.
Briefly

The trial of Jose Ibarra, charged with the murder of nursing student Laken Riley, has brought the issue of immigration to the forefront of national debate.
Republicans, including President-elect Donald Trump, have highlighted Ibarra's immigration status, making Riley's tragic death a pivotal topic in the ongoing discussions surrounding immigration policy.
Ibarra, accused of killing Riley while she ran last February, chose to waive his right to a jury trial, allowing the judge to have the final say.
Riley's killing nearly nine months ago has become a flash point in the 2024 presidential campaign, further polarizing public opinion on immigration.
