<p>The Democratic sheriff of the Georgia county where 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley was murdered, allegedly by an illegal alien, last week previously campaigned on not cooperating with federal immigration authorities.</p>
<p>Venezuelan Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26, was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/man-arrested-for-murder-of-georgia-nursing-student-was-illegal-immigrant-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrested</a> on Friday for the murder of Riley, whose skull was reportedly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/illegal-immigrant-suspect-in-laken-riley-murder-accused-of-disfiguring-her-skull">crushed</a> during the violent attack on February 22. Her body was later discovered in the woods.</p>
<p>Ibarra illegally crossed into the United States through El Paso, Texas, in September 2022 before being released due to lack of detention space, <a href="https://www.newsnationnow.com/crime/uga-death-nursing-student/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to Department of Homeland Security sources who spoke with NewsNation reporter Ali Bradley.</p>
<p>Athens-Clarke County Sheriff John Williams said while he was campaigning for the position in 2020 that he would not cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials, thus putting his community at risk.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is not my intention to cooperate with detainers,&#8221; Williams told a reporter. &#8220;I see it as the sheriff&#8217;s responsibility to protect the community. We can&#8217;t help with a culture of fear in our community and expect our community to respond and help us in situations.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Building relationships is key and if we&#8217;re antagonizing people because they are undocumented, then they built that fear in them, and they&#8217;re not likely to come to us. Not only when we need their help, but when they need our help,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;So that&#8217;s not something that we&#8217;d be doing. We won&#8217;t be doing any types of round-ups, and we won&#8217;t be contributing to that culture of fear.&#8221;</p>
