The Mexican man charged with abducting and killing an Iowa college student was known for years on the dairy farm where he worked by another name: John Budd.
The alias has emerged as Cristhian Bahena Rivera's employer, a cattle operation owned by a prominent Republican family, faces questions over whether its managers were aware of any warning signs that he was in the country illegally.
The name under which Rivera was hired and paid for the last four years was confirmed by three people with knowledge of his employment history. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information during an ongoing criminal investigation. One of the people said Rivera's work identity as John Budd appears in official government records.
The employer, Yarrabee Farms, declined to confirm or deny Rivera's work identity. Lori Chesser, an immigration employment lawyer advising the farm, said that companies cannot discriminate against workers based on how they look or how their names sound.
Farm officials have said Rivera presented an out-of-state photo identification and a Social Security number when he was hired in 2014, and they believed he was the person depicted in those documents until his arrest last month.
The farm followed legal requirements to examine the documents and determined "that they appeared genuine on their face and related to the person presenting them," Chesser said. "Questioning a name or other characteristic would violate the anti-discrimination provisions of the law."

“...a cattle operation owned by a prominent Republican family...”
Yes. Because the deaths & rapes of innocent woman and children at the hands of an illegal SHOULD be used by the Socialist Democrat Party for fundraising, or whatever.
@#$%^&*!
We Conservatives want the employers hides nailed to the wall, as well!
I think his mailman was also Republican.
...and it is exactly because of this sht, Trump was elected president.
Mexican by the name of JOHN BUDD, huh.
Then I’m Schlomo GoldenSchekelSteinBergerBlum.
...”prominent Republican family”
Oh, brother! Every article has to mention this!
.....I’m Schlomo GoldenSchekelSteinBergerBlum...
REALLY! We've been wondering where you went....
I'm your cousin Akiva GoldenSchekelSteinBergerBlum
Prominent RINO family. By their donations ye shall know them. And I haven’t been able to find any donations to Trump.
did n’t Mollies pop ask us to shut up about all this?
I’m a proud Republican and I actually WANT every single article to mention that his employer was a Republican. Why? Because it does matter. If the Republican business owners do not keep their own companies in good legal standing what would cause them to think the rest of the country is going to do what they say needs to be done? And the ‘not wanting to appear to be discriminating,’ nonsense is not going to hold water, either. Apparently somebody in Management in that company knew there was something iffy going on and didn’t step up to the plate. So, yes, by all means, mention Republican in every article. If we don’t want to admit our side has low-lives we don’t have a stand on going after anyone else.
My God...you are my Uncle!!!
Why does the headline call the murderer an "immigrant"? He did not go through the immigration process, he is an illegal alien.
You do not...and you can not know.
If someone I don’t know asks my name I tell them I’m Gloria Hernandez. You should see the looks I get. Lol. I’m as blue eyed and blonde haired as they come and don’t speak a word of Spanish. I then look back at them and raise my eyebrows like....soooo?!?!?!
But I go by Johnny Wadd...
;)
What a coincidence!!
Fraudulently documented foreigner, not immigrant.
And the employers knew.
