Mollie Tibbetts: Investigator says lack of Spanish-speaking officers delayed questioning of suspect
By Kelly Hayes
DAVENPORT, Iowa - The trial of Cristhian Bahena Rivera accused of murdering Iowa college student Mollie Tibbetts entered its second week on Monday as the prosecution continues to make its case against the 26-year-old dairy farm worker.
Bahena Rivera is charged with first-degree murder in Tibbetts’ stabbing death. The 20-year-old University of Iowa student vanished while out running on July 18, 2018, in Brooklyn, Iowa, and investigators recovered her partially naked, decomposing body from a cornfield a month later.
Prosecutors have used the DNA evidence, surveillance video showing Bahena Rivera’s Chevy Malibu driving near where Tibbetts was running, and the suspect’s partial confession to build their case.
