"Community Gathers to Mourn Slain Nursing Student in Georgia"

More than 1,000 mourners gathered at Woodstock City Church to honor Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student killed on the University of Georgia campus. Her death sparked national debate over immigration as the suspect, Jose Antonio Ibarra, was an undocumented migrant. Instead of flowers, her family requested donations to cover funeral expenses, establish a scholarship in her name, and create a foundation focusing on women's safety and homicide awareness, raising nearly $180,000 by Friday afternoon.
