The Poweshiek County Sheriff’s Office is listed on Rivera's FB page under Favorites (Other).
Lots of people accept every friend request on FB whether they know the person or not.I noticed this as well. Perhaps he knew her and this wasn't random at all. Either way my heart hurts for her and her family.
I Googled the location where this **** attacked her. Route 370.
Totally rural, and she was out there at night, alone.
With nothing but a cell phone.
Phones don't save your life on a run. Pepper spray. Bear Spray. Learn to use it, and never leave home without it.
One pepper spray, $14.99 at Dicks Sporting Goods..... Mollie might still be with us. Getting ready for college.
The worst part of this case, imo, is that it was absolutely 100 % preventable, had we enforced our existing immigration laws. I cannot imagine the agony of this fact. A beloved daughter's life snuffed out, and it all could have been avoided in this particular case. Horrific. And no, I am NOT into politics or political posts, just angry about this situation !
Don't you have to automatically serve your sentence where you committed your crime? Think of Amanda Knox in Italy.Based on a murder here in my town, perpetrated by a man who was here illegally, the way it works, is they are incarcerated here for the term of their sentence, and then deported. Otherwise, a lot of people, when deported, just re-enter the country and turn up someplace else.
Haaaa thanks Paul. We’re going to get shut down if this keeps up.
Thats a stretch, video games have been proven to not create violent tendencies, so thats an outdated myth
You know what...I used to run a State beach bike path in the darkAny middle to long distance runner will know it doesn't matter how fit you are if someone tries to fight or take you near the end of your run your energy levels will be depleted and it's possible your reaction time has slowed depending on how hot you got running.
Poor Mollie
if your date time is off and it commonly happens and can be hard to correct so hard to find day you are looking for also consider that if you have 8 cameras it takes 8 min to watch 1 min of real time.
I think that was his main motivation from the get go.I think we will find she was raped sometime during his “blackout”.
Is this the address for the arrest warrant? As in arresting him where he lived or worked? All I heard for abduction spot was 385. Did they say 385 east or west?Yup. That's amazing isn't it? He pursued her so far out into the northeast of town. I wonder if she knew he was behind her by that point. If she had, why run further away from town?
They also said he was from Mexico during the PC.I believe his Facebook page did say he was from Mexico ..

I agree with this advice, however, it's possible he could have lied about this to LE (along with other things like blacking out), e.g., saying she warned him she was going to call the police, when she actually tried to call and had no reception or he knocked the phone out of her hand or disabled her well before she had a chance to call 911.You can never control someone else's behavior. You can only control your own. BE PROACTIVE. Don't warn him you are going to call 911. Call 911. Don't hesitate. Don't think you might be wrong. Let LE sort it out. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.
I wear an Apple Watch I love. I got a Fitbit charge 2 still in the box from Christmas. Maybe I’ll get it out and wear both. If one doesn’t track the other will as a backup.I think so, too, and wonder about the Fitbit/iPhone helping the techs with the areas identified on the map here: https://findingmollie.iowa.gov/
Then some gumshoe work interviewing homeowners and checking for surveillance videos. Tedious, important and a sign of the times (technology and crime fighting).
Kudos for calling in the FBI and their techs!
