Laken Riley’s final text to her mom — and heartbreaking missed call before her murder — revealed in court

ATHENS, Ga. — A heartbreaking twist in the Laken Riley case surfaced in court Tuesday — when it was revealed the tragic coed’s mom missed her daughter’s final text and phone call.

“Good morning, about to go for a run. Are you free to talk?” the Georgia nursing student texted her mother Feb. 22 at 8:55 a.m. — before then trying the mom by phone fewer than 10 minutes later, at 9:03 a.m., when she didn’t hear back.

Riley’s mother, Allyson Phillips, missed the call — which was made 7 minutes before the 22-year-old was attacked.

Right after Riley’s last call to her mother, her phone locked — and it wouldn’t be unlocked again till authorities did so after retrieving it from the slay scene.

The unsuspecting mom didn’t end up responding to her daughter’s text till 9:37 a.m. — roughly 9 minutes after Riley died in the horrific sex attack gone awry, allegedly at the hands of Jose Ibarra, an illegal migrant linked to the Tren de Aragua gang.

“Call me when you can,’’ Phillips casually texted Riley.

When Phillips didn’t hear back from Riley, she started firing off a slew of texts and phone calls to her daughter over the next three hours — and enlisted some family members to do so, too — showing she was growing alarmed.

The mom called her daughter at 9:24 a.m., as Riley laying dying in the woods.

When Riley didn’t pick up the call, Phillips texted her daughter at 9:57 a.m. saying: “You are making me nervous not answering while you are out running. Hope you are OK.”

The increasingly frantic mom phoned her daughter five more times, to no avail.

At 11:57 a.m., Phillips texted her daughter, “Please call me. I am worried sick about you.’’

Riley’s sister and stepdad also separately called the college student without getting an answer.

Cops found Riley’s lifeless body just before 1 p.m. near the running trail where she went for her morning jog.

The mom sobbed at Ibarra’s murder trial in the Athens, Ga., courtroom Tuesday as a local police sergeant read her and her daughter’s final texts to each o ther out loud from the stand.

The mom put her hands over her eyes at one point as Riley’s aunt comforted her in the courtroom gallery.
