Awwww! Thank you! The vid wouldn’t play for me. Her portrait is as adorable as I thought it’d be!

 

[JudgeJoe]

Thanks- can access this one.

It’s a beautiful reflection of the aftermath of losing Mollie. Laura said she basically started grieving as soon as she learned Mollie missed work.

When I think of Mollie, this phrase comes instantly to mind:
Joie de vivre

Female runners continue to take back the streets of Brooklyn at 2nd Mollie Tibbetts Memorial Run
On a foggy Sunday morning, Iowans came together to continue Mollie Tibbetts' memory through one of her favorite activities — running.

[...]

This year's event did not match the size of the inaugural run, which took place a little over a month after a man was charged with murder in Tibbetts' death. But over 100 people, with and without connections to Tibbetts, came out to support her despite the dicey weather.

Runners from a Cedar Rapids running group, "No Regrets," decided to run both years because they felt a personal connection to Tibbetts' story.

[...]

They've adapted their routines after Tibbetts went missing last year, whether going on group runs or simply letting people know where they are going.

CT said her husband will follow her in his car. She uses a tracker app for times he can't. MM, 30, said she uses special earbuds that let her hear her surroundings.

[...]

As well as taking back the streets, the event continued Tibbetts' memory through charity.

Tibbetts' mother, Laura Calderwood, thanked everyone who participated Sunday, despite the chilly September weather. She was joined by her sons, Mollie Tibbetts' aunt Billie Calderwood, 52, and cousin Kelsie Sheets, 30.

[...]

"There's no way to describe just how overwhelming and humbling and how much love and support we have received," Calderwood said. "Something positive and beautiful came out of something hard and ugly."

Illegal Immigrant Accused of Killing Mollie Tibbetts Has Cost Taxpayers $22,000 So Far: Report
[...]

Recent figures obtained by KCCI 8 Des Moines show that more than half of the total bill covered by Iowa taxpayers so far have been to pay for an interpreter for accused killer Bahena Rivera.

[...]

KCCI found that a sum of $1,397 was paid to Interpreters, Inc. on top of an initial $12,485 fee for the services of a Missouri interpreter for 227 hours.

The additional fee was for six additional itemization claims, including interpreting and traveling fees ranging as far as 100 miles, reported KCCI. The most recent figure obtained by the outlet was from Sept. 20, for two-and-a-half hours of interpreting and 90 miles of travel, costing $143.

Iowa taxpayers have also had to fork out $5,000 to pay for expert investigators for Rivera, as well as an additional $3,200 for an expert witness, making the total bill about $22,082 for taxpayers, Breitbart found.

 

[Jealoushe]

UGHHH that irritates me. I know it's for justice but ugh. Doesn't include the cost to keep him locked up either.

Were the results of the forensic testing released to the public?

Noting:

Chad and Jennifer Frese, attorneys of Cristhian Bahena Rivera, filed an application Wednesday to continue the Nov. 12 trial to a later date, citing forensic evidence released earlier this month by the State of Iowa Criminalistics Laboratory as the reason for the desired delay.

"The results of this forensic testing are critical to the defense of Mr. Bahena Rivera," the Freses wrote in the motion, adding that they need additional time to gather and prepare expert witnesses.

If a judge denies the request, they wrote, they will be denying Bahena Rivera the right to a fair trial.

A year plus since MT died and she and family don't have justice yet.
