I wonder if we wont get a rebuttal witness(es) to testify they never heard any such comment.If he said this (BBM) to investigators, it seems like we would have heard it before. No? MOO

Rivera trial: Cristhian Bahena Rivera’s testimony suggests other individuals involved in Mollie Tibbetts’ death - The Daily Iowan
“Like you said, I may have been in a safe place, but I didn’t know where my daughter was,” Bahena Rivera said. “… I told them I wasn’t going to say anything until I knew my daughter was safe.”
Does anyone know the year of his Chevy Malibu? I have looked and all I see is Black Chevy Malibu and never a year mentioned.
My interpretation to the Prosecutor stating "...whenever you put her in the corn, she was bleeding" was "there was no more bleeding."Is there a Spanish speaker in here? Mine isn't the best and I can't make out the last word CBR is saying. When CBR is asked by prosecution about MT bleeding, go to 3:07:32 in this video
CBR: Yo no vi la sangre n.....(I can't make out the last word but the first part literally translates to "I didn't see the blood"
Interpreter: "Ah, there was no more, there was no longer any blood on her"
This is why I wonder what the last word is because I didn't see blood and there was no longer blood are quite different. Saying there was no longer blood implies there was at some point.
Also, interesting that he didn't know how to get home from this cornfield and needed his phone to guide him back but he had no problem going back to the exact spot.
Agreed!Well, it doesn't even matter because if they had stabbed her on the side of the road, then put her, even slightly alive, in the trunk, there would be more blood than there was. She was alive when in that trunk, and was killed IN the cornfield. The defense even pointed out what a weakling he must have been at 125 pounds, so it's highly unlikely he carried her into the field, dead or alive. He forced her into the cornfield, on foot, at knifepoint.
Did he ever go on his date that night? Who looks at the body of an innocent murder victim, let alone physically touches them, with no emotion?
I thought at one point he said he didn't look when asked about the blood. (When the body was still in the trunk) I'll have to listen to it again. He apparently told investigators he saw blood on her neck.Is there a Spanish speaker in here? Mine isn't the best and I can't make out the last word CBR is saying.

I am a little surprised the prosecution didn't ask him who he was supposed to go on a date with.So many gaping wholes of information. I couldn't watch the trial, so maybe I'm just missing parts, but:
1) Who was the girl he was supposed to go out on a date with and was she ever interviewed to confirm that date?
2) Where are the phone records showing DJ's phone was inactive.
Actually I would disagree. He is a farm worker. I'm sure he is plenty strong. He could have easily carried her into the field. I suspect he incapacitated her on the road (punch or maybe one stab) and put her in the trunk. Then in the corn field killed her (I agree on that). Did he carry her into the field or force her to walk? Impossible to say. But I don't think Mollie would have walked into that field voluntarily. He had a knife, she HAD to know what was coming. If he had a gun, maybe. But he had a knife, she could have run. I suspect he carried her and finished her off in the field. I agree that if he stabbed her viciously on the road, there would have been a lot more blood in the trunk. I also suspect he killed her before he SA her.Well, it doesn't even matter because if they had stabbed her on the side of the road, then put her, even slightly alive, in the trunk, there would be more blood than there was.

Sorry.....not sorry.....witness needs therapy not the spotlightShannon Moudy on Twitter
Slife says she became more concerned, called sheriff's office directly when the search neared her father's home.

Her father lives "right in that area" where Mollie was found, on the property right next to that scene. She never heard back from the tip line.

The client obviously wanted to take the stand and changed his story.I’ll also say: I wouldn’t do it! The first thing I do when I get a case is look at the actual evidence we have to see if it corroborates my client’s story and if it doesn’t, we have a serious and difficult conversation. Sometimes my client is actually right and we can prove it. But if not I never think “what can I make up next?” Not all facts are good facts and it’s your duty to do your job as well as you can with those facts.
Oh, you missed a show @katydid23 -- a la Jodi Arias!!OH MY LORD! I just logged in after a busy day---DID he testify? WTH?
And he said he didnt doing it?????? what????
Yep. He claims he himself was kidnapped by masked men who forced him to participate in the kidnapping and to drive them to the corn field. It was just absurd.OH MY LORD! I just logged in after a busy day---DID he testify? WTH?
And he said he didnt doing it?????? what????
There's a good summary of his story upthread posted by Pommy Mommy. He claims he was kidnapped by two masked men and they forced him to drive, then killed Molly and put her in the trunk! Then he put her body in the corn and covered it with stalks to keep it from the sun.OH MY LORD! I just logged in after a busy day---DID he testify? WTH?
And he said he didnt doing it?????? what????
