jose ibarra is victor.e's older brother going by the name of -- a nickname that many people, including this defendant call him,el gotsche owe. are againis goes by manny and rose belly goes by la gored yeah and another called carlito. you will hear from one in the residence and hear that all the residents, deputy attorney general and argenis and jose are in federal custody with immigration issues. we'll produce rosbeli. it is her that identified jose ibarra from the dumpster video. the officers, when they saw jose ibarra that day saw he had many injuries to him. scratches on his arms, scratches on his wrist and the back of his neck. scratches on his hands and they photographed those injuries to him. then they began to do an additional canvas of this entire apartment complex. multiple buildings in this apartment complex, a, b, c, d, e, multiple teams of agents looked for cameras, talking to residents, what do they know and not know. one of the things they found is that the ibarras lived in 126 and 125 and 124

they put together that timeline using video of jose ibarra, and where he was that morning, that day, and actually able to place him in certain locations, which gave him the opportunity to commit the crime. and then, jose, on top of that, there was dna evidence that linked ibarra to the death of laken riley. then there was video of him disposing of clothes. the clothes included the dna of laken riley and himself. so what the prosecutors did was put together that timeline and piece together a puzzle for the judge who in this case played a unique role as the finder of fact. clearly, he found that evidence the prosecutors presented to be credible, ultimately leading to this verdict of guilty on all counts. >> and so, misty, what, from a defense attorney, does the request of just having the judge and no jury, what does that give you as a defense lawyer when you are facing, you know, these kinds of accusations? >> it's a great question. it's strategy here because as we heard the defense make a statement in their closing argument, you are supposed to put emotion aside. this is based on the e

something that sort of surprised me in the last half hour or so, the defense is actually pointing to jose ibarra brother diego ibarra, as being the one who may have attacked laken riley. and so that was something that was just put forward during those closing arguments but this case centered around that not only the dna evidence, but the video of disposing of of evidence afterwards, the fact that her body was pulled off that trail and we heard from the prosecution today, some of the evidence that sort of is shocking to hear take a listen. >> laken riley herself has given you all the evidence you need alone to find this man guilty of every single count in this indictment, and what the evidence has shown in this case is that she did fight, and it is a direct result of that fight that gives you all the physical evidence you need to convict him. and if you only had that physical evidence, you would have enough to convict him. >> and pamela, the stuff that is tough to hear as the idea about that fight, when you look at the fact that jose ibarra had scratches all over his body, according to prosecutio

the prosecution believes jose ibarra was the man who attacked her, and she fought for her life. but the prosecution also made the point that jose ibarra used a rock like a hammer and slammed it into her head. several different times, fracturing her skull, then dragged her off that trail and then tried to sexually assault her. they found her partially clothed. the dna evidence led them to this location and on top of all that, they had video surveillance to show how he tried to hide different pieces of what was taken from that area. and they even talked about gloves that were cheap, that were torn that they were able to pull evidence from. and a hat that he had that had dna evidence on the prosecution case was very solid. we heard a 911 tape that lasted more than a minute where you could hear the pounding of that rock and it was very hard to listen to. but at the same time, the defense really had not much to offer in terms of defense for jose ibarra, we never figured out a motive. and today the defense even tried to throw jose ibarra brother under the bus, basically saying maybe h

this was an act of pure evil at the hands of jose antonio ibarra. he willfully chose to pray on innocent young women on the morning of february 22nd. it was laken hope riley being the young woman he would succeed in torturing in the most excruciating and brutal way while she fought not only for her life, but for her dignity. he must have believed that she was there for his taking, that he was entitled to whatever sick, perverted urges and desires he had that morning. not one person on this planet has even one right to take what they want from a person simply because they want it. yet jose did that. because of his evil actions, we are all being forced to learn how to navigate life with the stark, harsh reality of laken no longer being here. her amazing friends have been robbed of the beautiful gift of lifelong friendships and doing life together with their future husbands and children, the way my family and the phillips family have been blessed to do all of these years. her grandparents and aunts and uncles and cousins feel the absence of her presenc
