President Joe Biden was confronted over the recent killing of Augusta University College of Nursing student Laken Riley during a press conference at the U.S.-Mexico border in Texas on Thursday.
Shortly after Biden concluded his speech, in which he urged former President Donald Trump to “join” him in backing the bipartisan border security bill that failed in Congress earlier this month, an unidentified person asked him if he bore any “responsibility” for Riley’s death.
“Mr. President, do you bear any responsible for Laken Riley’s death?” the person shouted as Biden walked away from he podium. It was unclear whether or not the president heard the question.
