Jim Jordan Demands DHS Documents on Laken Riley's Alleged Killer

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan threatens to subpoena Secretary Mayorkas for failing to provide information on the suspect accused of murdering Laken Riley.

  • House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan accuses DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of withholding crucial information about Jose Ibarra, the migrant accused of killing Laken Riley.
  • Ibarra, charged with the murder of 22-year-old nursing student Riley, is allegedly linked to the Venezuelan organized crime group 'Tren de Aragua'.
  • Ibarra was released into the U.S. on parole after being arrested for illegally crossing the border in September 2022, raising concerns about DHS's parole policies.
  • Several Republican representatives, including Mark Green, criticize Mayorkas for 'stonewalling' requests for information, highlighting a broader issue of transparency within DHS.
  • The case has reignited debates over immigration policy and border security amid a surge of illegal migrants at the southern border.
