Mollie Tibbetts murder suspect Cristhian Bahena Rivera testifies armed, masked men forced him to approach her
Fox News ^ | 5/26/21 | Stephen Sorace

Posted on 05/26/2021 12:24:25 PM PDT by conservative98

Bahena Rivera testified that two masked men wielding a gun and a knife appeared in his living room after he finished taking a shower and ordered him into his car, a black Chevy Malibu.

He said one man got in behind him and the other next to him. He testified that he followed their orders to drive and then stop near a jogger, whom he now recognizes was Tibbetts.

Bahena Rivera's demeanor remained mostly calm during the stunning testimony until he described how the two masked men said "they knew Iris [Gamboa, the mother of his daughter] and my daughter" and "that if I said something, they would take care of them."

His voice also trembled when he described why he had told officers that he blacked out: "In my mind, I had my daughter."

Investigators have said that Bahena Rivera told them he "blacked out" and couldn’t remember how he killed Tibbetts.

Bahena Rivera, who the defense has painted as a hard-working, family-centered immigrant from Mexico who was pressured into making a false confession, also testified that he paid a coyote to help him enter the U.S. He said he crossed a river on an inflatable raft to reach the Texas border.

Bahena Rivera is facing one count of first-degree murder in the stabbing death of Tibbetts.

Tibbett's body was found in a cornfield on the morning of Aug. 21, 2018.

Since IA doesn’t have the death penalty, I hope this animal is routinely raped in prison. Routinely.

Is this the premise for a reboot of The Fugitive franchise?

That explains the recent sightings.

The jury will probably buy it. Those Midwestern Lutherans are nice as can be but gullible as hell, especially the women. They have lived their lives being nice in a nice world. They aren’t ready for illegal alien criminals in their midst.

Defense attorneys Jennifer Frese and Chad Frese should be ashamed of themselves. Shocking and evil.

Must be angling for an insanity defense.

Ack, I quit watching to flip over to the Daybell hearings. Too many monsters to keep up with. BTW, nothing happened except Lori’s was given a continuance, again. Something is going on with her but no leaks as to what.

Back to the Tibbetts case - That murderous illegal alien has sat in his chair for days with nothing but an evil look on his face. Every last illegal needs to be deported yesterday. No, don’t care if the cows aren’t milked or the corn isn’t picked. His employer needs to be behind bars, too.

His family, who have been here for 18 years needed a translator but never mind they did pressers speaking perfectly good English. He somehow needs a translator when he has been here for a dozen years, went to school and was able to speak English when saying Mollie was hot and when he tried talking her into whatever when he abducted her.

Mollie’s family still loves illegals. Her lib mother immediately moved the murder’s cousin into her old bedroom.

Those two have tried to convict every neighbor, cop, acquaintance within a 100 miles of the courthouse so why not little green men in space ships.

Please clap.

This sounds just like the time I caught a kid rummaging through my car at a shopping center. I had him by his arm and he points to a guy at a pay phone across the street and says “That man made me do it!”
