Mollie Tibbetts, a 20-year-old sophomore at the University of Iowa, was last seen alive while jogging the evening of July 18.
This week, authorities said that she was killed and that her body was dumped in a cornfield.
On Tuesday, the police arrested a Mexican immigrant named Cristhian Bahena Rivera as a suspect. A warrant filed by the Poweshiek County Sheriff's Office said Rivera confessed to the police that he pursued Tibbetts and later concealed her body.
The police charged Rivera with first-degree murder, which in Iowa comes with a possible penalty of life in prison.
By Wednesday, law-enforcement officials claimed Rivera was living in the US illegally and that he'd somehow passed the government's E-Verify system as an eligible worker — apparently with stolen identification, The Washington Post reported one law-enforcement official as saying.
The case is ongoing, and Rivera's lawyer has reportedly disputed claims that his client is in the US illegally.
ABC News also reported that Rivera had worked for up to seven years at Yarrabee Farms, a company owned by Craig Lang, a former president of the Iowa Farm Bureau and "an active member" of the state's Republican Party.
At the same time, some right-leaning politicians, figureheads, and media outlets appeared eager to exploit the developments and push false narratives about unauthorized immigrants and violent crime.
How the right is trying to exploit Tibbetts' death
President Donald Trump — who in June 2015 falsely claimed that "many" immigrants from Mexico are rapists and drug-traffickers, and who recently approved policies that prompted the separation of thousands of migrant children — received extensive news coverage for weighing in on Tibbetts' death.
Trump on Wednesday evening posted a video saying Tibbetts was "permanently separated" from her family, using a phrase that has gained momentum in right-leaning circles to describe American

So illegal immigrants aren’t rapists or drug traffickers? Boy, that’s a load off my mind.
This is why I no longer support lower taxes for wealthy or any business oriented legislation as long as the cheap labor express is run by the same corporate types. And don’t get me started on the MSM! If they are going to stab us in the back then we can just stab them in the front.
how can anyone look at their face in a mirror and try to make mileage off defending illegal aliens in conjunction with this case

Crime statistics debunk your debunking, bunkhead.
Now WHY would Business Insider be advocating for low cost illegal immigrant labor?
Both sides need to not wave dead bodies in the air as campaign icons. A little dignity here.
Looks like a back hole.
Can anyone post a good study on Crime and illegal immigration?
Nothing “debunked” about it. He is illegal. He killed an American citizen. He should not have been here at all in the first place. Nothing about that has ever been debunked.
More propaganda to convince US to give up our country without a fight.
Dream on. Except in time of national emergency, for example the few weeks between Sept. 11 and the Enron scandal, politics is always what Madison and the other Founders thought it was.
I wonder if Chuck Schumer shed any tears over Mollie’s murder?
Illegal Alien Crime and Violence by the Numbers: We’re All Victims
WHat I’d like to know is what the hell were all those people in Mollie’s neighborhood doing while she was be stalked , in broad daylight , by a Mex in a black car . Following and harassing this little white girl ,and then attacking her . Surely SOMEONE was out in their yard??? Someone driving by?
I have to say : Shame on these people . Who DO NOT protect their own . That guy should have NEVER gotten away with what he was doing , not in broad daylight , in a neighborhood full of homes . Probably most of those neighbors had firearms . Where the hell were they when that little girl needed them??? Pathetic
Should be pretty simple since, by definition, illegal immigration IS a crime.
