WATCH: Marjorie Taylor Greene Confronts Joe Biden During State Of The Union

On Thursday evening, President Joe Biden ventured to the US Capitol to deliver his State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress. As Biden walked down the aisle to give his speech at the podium, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) confronted the 81-year-old Democrat to attempt to force him to say the name of Laken Riley, who was murdered by an illegal immigrant in Georgia last month.

"Say her name... Laken Riley," Greene, who was wearing a red Make America Great Again hat, said to Biden. Greene, like many Republicans in the chamber, wore pins to honor Laken Riley that read "Say her name."

As previously reported by the DC Enquirer, Riley was found dead on the University of Georgia's campus in late February. One of the young woman's friends reported her missing after she did not come back from a jog near the school's intramural fields. Authorities eventually found Riley without a pulse. They attempted CPR but were unable to resuscitate her. The young nursing student had "visible injuries" that led to the authorities suspecting foul play and launching an investigation, eventually settling on 26-year-old Jose Antonio Ibarra as the main suspect. It was later revealed that Riley was beaten to death with an object that led to "seriously disfiguring her body … by disfiguring her skull." Following the beating, Ibarra then dragged her body to a secluded area.

During a press conference, UGA Police Chief Jeffrey L. Clark explained that Ibarra is not a citizen of the United States and that he potentially is from Venezuela. He has been charged with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault, false imprisonment, kidnapping, hindering a 911 call, and concealing the death of another, as previously reported by the DC Enquirer. Authorities in New York previously had custody of Ibarra for endangering a minor. Still, the NYPD released him onto the streets before Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) could issue a detainer.

JUST IN: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene confronts President Biden at the State of the Union and tells him to say Laken Riley's name.

"Say her name... Laken Riley," MTG said as Biden walked down the aisle.
