Illegal immigrant killer of Laken Riley wins unexpected court victory for mental evaluation
The illegal immigrant killer convicted in the death of Georgia college student Laken Riley won a court victory Thursday when a judge ruled he should be mentally evaluated after his attorney claimed last year that he wasn't competent to stand trial. Jose Ibarra was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison without parole for the death of Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student. The judge who issued the sentence, Judge Patrick Haggard, on Thursday ordered that the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) conduct a mental evaluation to determine his competency to stand trial and assist with post-conviction proceedings, meaning his appeal case. In June, Ibarra's attorneys said they believe their client is "suffering from congenital deficiency which could render the client incapable of preparing a defense and standing trial," the New York Post reported. They claimed that he "lacks the mental capacity to understand the nature and object and proceedings and counsel believes that this was in existence at the time of the offense and at the time of the trial." "The mental competence of [Ibarra] has been called into question, and this court has found it appropriate for an evaluation to be conducted at the public expense," Haggard wrote in his order. He ordered the Georgia Department of Corrections to partner with DBHDD for the "prompt evaluation" at a GDC facility or a hospital. In court documents, prosecutor Sheila Ross said there was no evidence during his trial that suggested Ibarra wasn't mentally competent. However, she didn't oppose Ibarra getting evaluated and left it up to Haggard to decide, the Post reported. Ibarra, 27, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela, attacked and killed Riley as she was jogging along trails near Lake Herrick on the University of Georgia campus. Prosecutors said Ibarra saw Riley running along popular trails on UGA's campus just after 9 a.m. and attacked her, dragged her 64 feet into a wooded area and beat her head with a rock repeatedly, killing her. The case attracted national attention because of Ibarra's illegal status. He entered the United States illegally during the Biden administration through El Paso, Texas, in September 2022 and was released into the U.S. via parole. He was arrested by the New York Police Department in August 2023 and was "charged with acting in a manner to injure a child less than 17 and a motor vehicle license violation" before making his way to Georgia.

DOJ review finds Jeffrey Epstein had no "client list," died by suicide
Washington — A Justice Department and FBI review of the investigation related to disgraced late financier Jeffrey Epstein found that there was no "client list" or evidence that he blackmailed prominent figures, according to a memo detailing the findings. The review also concluded that Epstein died by suicide while in custody at a Manhattan correctional facility in August 2019. Epstein was facing federal sex trafficking charges, and his death was subsequently investigated by the Justice Department's internal watchdog and the FBI. The Justice Department and FBI said in their memo that video footage reviewed by bureau investigators — and made available to the public — confirmed that Epstein was locked in his cell and nobody entered tiers of the unit where he was housed at the time of his death. Investigators also "did not uncover evidence that could predicate any investigation against uncharged third parties," according to the memo. "This systematic review revealed no incriminating 'client list.' There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions," the Justice Department and FBI said in their two-page document detailing the conclusions. Axios was first to report the memo with the Justice Department's findings. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI leaders had pledged to release information about Epstein after President Trump returned to the White House earlier this year. Files related to Epstein's case, as well as the circumstances surrounding his death, have been the subject of conspiracy theories for years. Among the speculation about the records involving Epstein was that the federal government was concealing information to shield powerful and prominent figures who were allegedly named in them. While Bondi suggested during a Fox News interview in February that a "client list" was sitting on her desk, the purported document never materialized. In February, a group of 15 right-wing social media influencers went to the White House and were given binders labeled "The Epstein Files: Phase 1." The influencers said they received the binders from Bondi during a meeting that Mr. Trump, FBI Director Kash Patel and Vice President JD Vance also attended. But any hopes of new information were quickly dashed, as the social media figures said the binders contained documents that were already in the public domain. Bondi confirmed that the first tranche of declassified files largely contained records that were leaked but had not been made public by the federal government. Still, after Elon Musk and Mr. Trump had a falling out last month, the billionaire entrepreneur claimed that the administration had withheld the so-called Epstein files because the president was named in them. In response, Mr. Trump shared a social media post that rebuffed Musk's claim. The president told NBC News in an interview that any alleged links between him and Epstein were "old news," and said he had not been friendly with the convicted sex offender for 18 years before his death. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the administration's approach to Epstein's case on Monday, telling reporters that it is "committed to truth and to transparency." "That's why the attorney general and the FBI director pledged, at the president's direction, to do an exhaustive review of all of the files related to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and his death, and they put out a memo in conclusion of that review," she said. "There was material they did not release, because, frankly, it was incredibly graphic and it contained child pornography, which is not something that's appropriate for public consumption. But they committed to an exhaustive investigation. That's what they did, and they provided the results of that." When asked about the "client list" that Bondi said was on her desk, Leavitt said the attorney general was referring to "the entirety of all of the paperwork, all of the paper in relation to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes." The FBI and Justice Department said in their memo that the review confirmed that Epstein harmed more than 1,000 victims, each of whom suffered "unique trauma." "One of our highest priorities is combatting child exploitation and bringing justice to victims. Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves neither of those ends," the memo said. The Justice Department and FBI added that while they have "labored to provide the public with maximum information" about Epstein and examine evidence in the government's possession, they determined that "no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted."

Officer shot and man with rifle killed after exchange of fire at Border Patrol facility in Texas
A 27-year-old man with a rifle and tactical gear was killed Monday morning after exchanging fire with law enforcement officers at a Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas, injuring several. A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said the man 'opened fire at the entrance of the United States Border Patrol sector annex' and 'Border Patrol agents and local police helped neutralize the shooter.' The DHS spokesperson said two officers, including one shot in the knee, and a Border Patrol employee were injured. 'All three have gone to the hospital. This is an ongoing investigation led by the FBI,' the spokesperson said. McAllen Police Chief Victor Rodriguez identified the suspected shooter as 27-year-old Ryan Luis Mosqueda. Rodriguez said at a news conference that Mosqueda was connected to a Michigan address and a vehicle with Michigan tags. 'He was loaded for bear,' the chief said, adding that 'another rifle and other assaultive weapons' were found in the suspect's car. Rodriguez said the suspect was able to shoot dozens of rounds of ammunition before quickly being killed by federal agents. During the shooting, one officer with the McAllen police was 'struck by a round,' according to Rodriguez. 'He got hit in the knee — he's going to be fine,' the chief said. 'Border Patrol agents returned fire' and killed the suspect, the chief told reporters. The exchange of bullets included dozens of rounds, Rodriguez said. He added that officials 'have no reason to believe at this time that there are any more particular threats in this area.' The FBI is leading the investigation, Rodriguez said in response to unanswered questions about a possible motive for Monday's shooting. 'There is not enough known,' Rodriguez said. 'When someone drives onto a parking lot and opens fire, there is some premeditation involved.' The suspect's vehicle was spray-painted with the phrase 'Cordis Die,' which appears in a 'Call of Duty' video game, according to a local law enforcement official and a source familiar with the matter. Rodriguez said Mosqueda was reported missing from the nearby town of Weslaco, Texas, early Monday. The Weslaco Police Department said in a statement later Monday that Jose Mosqueda told police his son, Ryan Mosqueda, missing around 3:48 a.m. Jose Mosqueda said his son, who was last seen about an hour earlier, had a mental deficiency, according to the statement, but no documents were provided to back up these claims. The FBI's San Antonio field office said in a statement on X that a federal investigation is ongoing but said it would not provide further details at this time. The National Border Patrol Council, the union that represents Border Patrol employees, said in a statement, 'We are thankful for the prayers for our agents and personnel. Targeted violence will not be tolerated and will be dealt with swiftly. Justice will be served. Our agents and law enforcement partners will not back down.' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday that the administration is 'working with the appropriate federal agencies to get to the bottom of what happened.' Monday's shooting comes after several other violent incidents at federal immigration facilities and amid rising tensions throughout the country over the Trump administration's immigration enforcement policies. On Friday, a local police officer was shot and several armed individuals were arrested at an incident near an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Alvarado, Texas, according to the Johnson County Sheriff's Office. And in Portland, Oregon, local police said they 'observed a number of enforcement activities by federal law enforcement' on Friday outside another ICE facility, which has been the site of numerous protests in recent weeks. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche mentioned the two incidents on Saturday — calling them 'attacks' on DHS facilities — and said on X that the Department of Justice has 'zero tolerance for assaults on federal officers or property.'
