An undocumented migrant accused of murdering nursing student Laken Riley waived his right to a jury trial during a chilling courtroom exchange.
Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26, stared coldly ahead in Georgia's Superior Court on Tuesday as Judge H. Patrick Haggard approved his request for a judge-only trial.
He is accused of killing Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student at Augusta University College, on February 22 as she was out for a run.

He is evil!
When your case is unquestionable, you do a judge trial. Judges have to stick with the law, where the jury might want justice than what the judge will give.
Can they approve to draw and quarter him?
An illegal alien…
I quit reading as soon as I see a lie.
The next thing this little Venezuelan biatch needs to stare at is six rifle barrels pointed at him.
Bring back Old Sparky and give this animal a long, slow cook.
Perhaps the cartels or his organized criminal gang will threaten the judge?
I doubt a jury would have deliberated for 45 minutes.
He’ll be a taxpayer burden for many years......of course there is always something called “prison justice”.
Reestablish public hanging for murderers and assorted other evildoers.
The defendant knows he is guilty, and that the prosecution can prove it.
The only advantage is that the judge cannot sentence him to death; just life without parole.
Then again, how long is he likely to survive long when other prisoners figure out who he is and what he did? My guess is six months or less.
Time to crank up old Sparky!
Approved his request for a judge-only trial.

I believe I’d be like that dad in Louisiana that killed his child’s murderer at the airport.
Imagine if we’d lost last Tuesday. Nightmare.
Anyone supposedly shocked by this move is not understanding the motivation—anytime you have a set of facts like this set of facts, any defense lawyer will want the judge to look dispassionately at the facts. A jury would immediately want to roast the defendant. You do not want these facts in front of a jury, especially with this unsympathetic of a defendant.
Defense made the right move.
One bayonet, many, many times - just like Gaddafi got...
Some people just need hangin’ that’s all. Long ago, in a different California, that’s what would have happened.
The guy didn’t murder his son, but he knew kidnapped & sexually abused his son.
That is one of the most shocking things I’ve seen on video. More shocking is how absolutely on target he was with his shot. One inch off....
There’s only one thing to do with someone like that.
Offer him the option of meeting with a priest or pastor and give him the n opportunity to make his peace with his Maker.
And let that be the last decision he ever has to make.
