The lawyer for the illegal immigrant accused of killing an Iowa college student suggested Wednesday that President Trump has tainted his client’s chance to get a fair hearing by publicly talking about the case.
Cristhian Rivera made his first appearance in an Iowa courtroom Tuesday on first degree murder charges in the slaying of Mollie Tibbetts, whose disappearance last month drew national headlines.
The judge set Mr. Rivera’s bail at $5 million, cash-only.
Mr. Rivera, according to investigators, admitted to having accosted her while she was jogging July 18, and then hiding her body. He led police to her body this week.
The case inflamed the immigration debate, with Mr. Trump weighing in Tuesday night, blaming a broken immigration system for contributing to the murder and saying it “should have never happened.”

Pitiful.
Let’s let him go. No telling how many women he can kill while relocating.
The Illegal admitted to the crime. Hang em high!
Trump said something, so set the man who is on video following Mollie, who has confessed to pulling her bloodstained dead body out of his car trunk, and hiding her under a pile of leaves in a cornfield free?
It’s the lawyer who needs to mount an insanity defense... For himself.
Ahhh, the Charlie Manson defense.
Plead guilty. No trial. Next problem.
The only person who “tainted” the jury pool is the perp who did the deed.
String this illegal perverted murdering POWorthlessS up, today! Ef the attorney.
O’Reilly?
Obama said plenty of things about cops and others.
Didn’t affect the outcome of their cases
Rivera got Lanny Davis to represent him ?
If a lawyer does not taint it,it wont be tainted.
Where do all these low life’s come from. The president is not part of prosecution. He has a right to explain the facts of life and his reasons for standing up against Illegal Immigrants. Using this defense then all of the 911 terrorists should have gone free too. As the president made negative comments about them too.

Thanks, onyx...Great post!
Never plead Guilty today.
My local TV station had a report on this. At no time did they even mention that the suspected murderer was an illegal immigrant. The goal is to keep people ignorant so that our country can be turned into a 3rd world.
That crap won’t fly.
Mollie’s disappearance was National News!
Everyone was commenting on Mollie!
Just don’t ask MSNBC “some girl in Iowa” or Senator Fauxahontas Warren, who’s more worried about “Mexican Mom’s and babies temporarily separated at the border,” when Mom tries to illegally shove her way into our country.
