ATLANTA – The Georgia Senate passed two bills aimed at illegal immigration last week, one day after the father of murder victim Laken Riley urged lawmakers to take a tougher stand on the issue.
The 22-year-old nursing student was killed on the University of Georgia campus in Athens last month. A 26-year-old Venezuelan man allegedly in the country illegally has been charged with the crime.
