The mainstream media’s absolute shamelessness is not breaking news, but sometimes it’s just so bad that it has to be called out and documented for the record.
On Wednesday, Venezuelan illegal alien Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26, was found guilty during a Georgia bench trial on all 10 counts which included malice murder and aggravated assault with intent to rape his victim, 22-year-old Augusta University nursing student Laken Riley.
Ms. Riley was stalked by Ibarra on February 22, 2024, as she went for her morning jog on the University of Georgia campus. He attempted to rape her but she fought back against his attack for 18 minutes, which left DNA evidence under her fingernails. He killed Riley by bashing her skull with a rock multiple times and strangling her.
Though Ibarra’s status as an illegal alien who came here under the Biden-Harris administration is a big reason why this case received so much national attention, you wouldn’t know he was an illegal immigrant if you read the first few paragraphs of The Associated Press‘ write-up on the verdict:
The Venezuelan man convicted of killing Georgia nursing student Laken Riley has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole in a case that became a flashpoint in the national debate over immigration.Jose Ibarra was charged with murder and other crimes in Riley’s February death, and Wednesday’s guilty verdict was reached by Athens-Clarke County Superior Court Judge H. Patrick Haggard. Ibarra, 26, had waived his right to a jury trial, meaning Haggard alone heard and decided the case.Haggard found Ibarra guilty of all 10 counts against him: one count of malice murder; three counts of felony murder; and one count each of kidnapping with bodily injury, aggravated assault with intent to rape, aggravated battery, obstructing an emergency call, evidence tampering and being a peeping Tom.
In their headline, The AP simply referred to him as “man,” too:
In the story itself, his illegal immigrant status wasn’t mentioned until several paragraphs down, buried below numerous ads:
Riley’s killing added fuel to the national debate over immigration when federal authorities said Ibarra illegally entered the U.S. in 2022 and was allowed to stay in the country while he pursued his immigration case. President-elect Donald Trump and other Republicans blamed Riley’s death on the policies of Democrat Joe Biden.
The tweet they put up that included a link to their article didn’t include anything about his nationality or illegal immigrant status:
That was also the case for a video tweet they shared:
Though The AP‘s offenses were the most egregious, they weren’t the only ones trying to play word games:
Understandably, people were disgusted by the fact that the mainstream press are still trying to hide the truth about the dangers of wide open borders, unchecked crossings, and blanket amnesty:
Honestly, I’m shocked they didn’t call him a “mostly peaceful” convicted murderer.
Clearly, no lessons were learned by these people after the election. None.
