FOX NEWS Mollie Tibbetts murdered: Timeline of events The body of the missing University of Iowa college student Mollie Tibbetts was found bringing an end to the five week search. Murder suspect Cristhian Bathena Rivera was charged with first-degree murder. Here is a timeline of the events since her disappearance. The arrest of a 24-year-old illegal immigrant in the murder of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts sparked both mournful — and fiery — responses from politicians on Tuesday, as they pleaded with Congress to do more to protect U.S. citizens. Investigators identified Tibbetts' suspected killer as Cristhian Bahena Rivera, an illegal immigrant from Mexico who is believed to have been living in the area around Brooklyn, Iowa, for four to seven years. President Trump, while in West Virginia speaking at a rally, said Tibbetts' murder "should have never happened." "You heard about today with the illegal alien coming in, very sadly, from Mexico and you saw what happened to that incredible, beautiful young woman?" Trump asked. "Should have never happened. Illegally in our country." Vice President Mike Pence said he was "heartbroken" by the news of Tibbetts' brutal slaying and offered prayers for the young woman's family and close friends "in this time of unimaginable grief." Pence called for "justice" after police announced Rivera's arrest. read more Trump's LGBT supporters face discrimination, hatred from the left
