The body of missing college student Mollie Tibbetts was found Tuesday, two sources told Fox News, bringing an end to an intensive search that lasted more than a month and captured national headlines.

A law enforcement source told Fox News the body was found in Iowa, but more specific details about the location were not released.

Didn’t they interview a pig farmer in the area several times? Authorities must have some kind of suspicion or they wouldn’t have kept interviewing him. I’m not saying he has anything to with this sad story but he has a troubled past.

Whatever the case may be, my prayers go out to her family and friends.

I still say it’s the boyfriend.

Certainly, he's the odds-on favorite.

Be careful out jogging ladies. Get your permits.

And lose the dang earbuds.

Where she was found will probably tell us a lot.

So sad, prayers up for her family. At least they have more evidence now, hopefully leading to an arrest.

Been saying that for years now. God gave us ears to hear dangers and to clutter that with garbage is STUPID

I can not imagine the things that these people go through to come to such a hideous end.

We need to revert to American Justice in the Greenlease kidnapping where a man and woman took the 6 year old from a private school on false pretenses and murdered him. They did this in September 1953; they were both put to death in December of the same year.

Sad new, but I always felt this investigation was mishandled. I never saw a timeline presented by the authorities such as did she text or was online? - if so when, if she had a fitbit what was the route? - nothing...and now the body found and still no information on when, where and what led investigators to location.

I say it because it’s almost always the boyfriend.

Except when it's a near by neighbor with a history of stalking.

She was found in the same county where she disappeared. News conference at 4:00 pm Iowa (CDT). Father says it is Mollie but LEOs not confirming.

The pig farmer was also given a lie-detector test, for whatever its worth, they didn’t haul him in after that. So, at this point, he is not my top suspect. Those tests are not foolproof. We will see if law enforcement is able to catch anyone.

“...She was staying with her longtime boyfriend and working while home from school over the summer.”

Call me old-fashioned, I knew of another living arrangement like this... but what? She was living with her boyfriend? And I thought some other stories said her brother lived with her boyfriend. Anyway, so, this does not seem to make sense.

Yes, and prayers for poor Mollie and her family. I followed this story closely when it became national news.

I’m so sorry for Mollie and her family.

God be with them and keep them close.

The boyfriend was cleared because it was established and well-proven that he was out of town at the time she was abducted.

He is not a suspect.
