Found Deceased IA - Mollie Tibbetts, 20, Poweshiek County, 19 Jul 2018 #10

[K.jill]

Maybe the family’s press conference earlier today with the increased reward Initiated a credible tip.

 

[Momma2cam]

Uh oh. Hoping for a break. Just have a feeling it isn't going to be of her alive. MOO.

 

[Inthedetails]

Knot in my stomach. Are they searching the woods? Thats where I kept picturing her.

I have a knot too. The photo of all the vehicles.....what is happening there?

Honestly, this is unexpected to me.

Finally a main stream media source so we can discuss this. MOO is if this does pan out, this is a lucky break unrelated to today's PC. Prayers for family, I do not think there will be a happy outcome.

I've been lurking here and over on Reddit ever since this case captivated me. I, like several others, was sitting on my hands waiting for the news of this huge LE presence at the hog farm to become "official."

I am just wondering if that press conference was set for right around the time the first LE vehicles started to show up near the hog farm as a way to distract people in town from what was going on. Otherwise, it seems like a very eerie coincidence. I think the PC was called as part of a larger plan.

Wow haven’t seen a reward this high since Holly Bobo’s case:

Or they have a POI that we don't know about yet that is close to her but don't have enough substantive evidence to go with them. There are a few things that strike me with the random abductor thing.

I don't think it would be that way. As others have pointed out, if they had a suspect, he would be way too dangerous for them to let stay free. They would have a search warrant in 5 minutes and they would go pick him up.

 

[PommyMommy]

Oh no.

What is the distance/mileage on this? Tia.

Brooklyn to Deep River = 20 min/15 miles

That's exactly what I was thinking. The timing seems too coincidental.

Large police presence near Highway 21 in Poweshiek County

Having awful flashbacks of Kathlynn Sheperd’s case

The search just made my stomach drop. I personally don't believe it will have a happy ending. JMO.

I always thought they had to have pretty strong evidence to zero in on the hog farm last week. This sounds like it is near there. I feel like something keeps bringing them back to that area. If they are searching woods (are they? I am not sure), I feel like they are looking for a body. Again MOO.

Oh God. Is there any way to watch local news live online?

Thank you everybody for being able to post any news or updates so quickly it really is much appreciated.

They haven't started broadcasting anything yet... looks like they are still working to get confirmation on the search in progress.

I feel sick....

I think the reward in Abbey and Libby's case is higher, but my old brain may have that wrong.

Des Moines Register reports that Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation special agent Mike Krapfl indicated that authorities there was enough evidence to determine that a woman reportedly spotted at a Kearney, Missouri, truck stop last week was not 20-year-old Mollie, who vanished from her Brooklyn, Iowa, home on either July 18 or July 19.
