My Facebook Rant on Mollie Tibbets'
I posted this rant on Wednesday night, which was the day that Mollie Tibbets was found. I figured some of my readers would find it interesting. Also, this is why I haven't added another chapter of "How to Stage a Murder". If you continue reading on, you will most certainly understand why.
I have followed the Mollie Tibbets case since it started, and was getting pretty deep into theories and assumptions as to where she could be, mainly because that is how I feel that I can be helpful while utilising my knowledge. However, with Mollie's turnup early this morning, I feel as though I need to unleash my feelings as to what this means and what we can expect for this future trial for Mollie's murderer, Cristhian Rivera.
Please note that my two career choices were private investigator and English professor. I chose the latter, due to wanting a family that didn't have to be hidden from my work life due to any potential threats or dangerous situations, such as an angry client performing a violent act unto my family due to their service not going their way. With that being said, naturally, I am still drawn to real life mysteries and attempting to solve them and create theories on my own. It keeps my gears going and it makes me feel helpful, even if the case is decades or possibly centuries old. Obviously, every case must be treated delicately, due to its severity. My first case sophomore year was about a young boy that was either in middle school or high school, who shared a pair of gym shoes with another, and they had a secret spot for them: tucked inside a wrestling mat. The boy was shoved inside of the wrestling mat and died of suffocation. LOTS of people speculated that this was an act of racial bias murder (and we'll come back to this debate later in this rant); however, the police verdict was it wasn't murder at all. The boy crushed himself inside when he went to go get his shoes and died there, but the way I rolled across this case was on a YouTube video about strange murders. They only considered that the security footage was cut, but not the autopsy report. (I can't quote the case at hand, but I did speak with a cop from the town when I was performing this research on this "murder". I don't remember what it was called, and my apologies with that; however, it's been three years since I worked on that case. I wasn't as sensitive to general death then as I am now, and all I cared about were the actual murders, truth be told.)
On with Mollie Tibbets, shall we?
First, WHY did Donald Trump have to add a SHIT ton of fuel to that god-damned immigration law fire NOW?!?! A courtesy from you, Mr. President, is NO PROPER PLACE for you to flex your political agenda!! It is a chance for you to connect with the family, one on one, and to not make yourself seem like an impeccable asshole. Instead, you failed, ONCE AGAIN, and made yourself look like one hell of a creep in the process. Sorry you all have to see me get more than a bit "ugly frustrated", but I am not sorry to Donald J. Trump. Yes, you are the President of the United States. Act like it. Stop being a child and knock it off with the tweets. Moving on.
Obviously, as mentioned previously, there is a more than obvious issue on illegal immigrants. The common thought of race being an issue was seen in my first case, and it certainly won't be the last. It is not good that Cristhian Rivera is an illegal immigrant. It will make this trial a living nightmare for him. In my opinion though: the worse we can make it for him, the better for the people, like me, who want justice for Mollie Tibbets and her family. However, this WILL NOT STOP politicians using Mollie and her kidnapping-now-murder as leverage for their political agenda, just like Trump (although his was not appropriate at all, since he chose to flex his on the day of her finding. Trump, we could bring this up any other time, but PLEASE, give the family a break. They are grieving over a now actually lost relative. Your opinion on a different subject means NOTHING as of right now! Bug off, you bloody wanker.) Let me confront first though that I am not the monstrous kind of person that thinks EVERY illegal immigrant who has crossed the boarder needs to be shipped back, hence why I am really against Trump's plans for ICE. Also, as the youngest sister to a lawyer who got a woman who crossed the boarder illegally legal status, even though that woman took ALL of the right actions up to the day when she gave her old, fake ID to the DMV clerk when recieving her new one, while staying in the country for the allotted amount of time to become a citizen? Shoutout to Liz Araguás, one of THE REAL MVPs. 🙌🏻
Last of all before addressing what we could possibly expect for the full-lengthed trial and sentence, of course we need to address the most important detail of all: our victim. Mollie never deserved any of this, and yet, here we are, ladies and gentlemen. Sadly, this is the new America. I mean hell, I bought a pink tazer and a can of pepper spray that looks like a big tube of lipstick for my Sam Smith concert last week, and specially arranged my purse so they were the first things I could grab because of this shit, and the twin cities ARE NOT THAT TERRIFYING. I get every city has a ghetto, but Frankie and I were most definitely not in the ghetto. That doesnt change the fact that this new America sucks! My dad used to tell me that he would never move out of Iowa because nothing happens here, and the new America turned us into a sex trafficking hotspot!! It's frickin' awful, and it is so bloody horrifying that it is happening so close to our homes and to people in our communities. I get that shit happens, but nobody, and I mean absolutely nobody deserved that strike of fear and torturous pain that Mollie had to experience first-hand. (Well unless you're on death row yourself. Or a serial killer. Or have shot up a school. Any of those things? Yeah, mazel tov.) To the father of Mollie Tibbets: the killer caved in and brought you back to your daughter. Words can't express how much grief the rest of the world is holding in our hearts for you and your family. I know the simple words "I am sorry" can't cut it right now, because she is gone, but before, you declined our sympathy and wanted our help, but I ask for the rest of the world when I say, "What can we do to help you in your time of need? What can we do to help you now?"
Now folks, let's get into what we can expect from this trial. This is the heart of why I am writing this long-ass post, because this TRULY has me boggled. I made this discovery, per say, when washing up for dinner this evening. Cristhian Rivera already has that illegal immigrant strike against him, yes, and yeah, the world pretty much hates him for murdering an innocent college student and just dumping her body in a cornfield, so he could just face the normal penalties that an illegal immigrant with murder charges could face. BUT there was one important detail on the news I want to point out to all of you reading this post that when I realised what it could do, it really twisted up my stomach: Rivera claimed to have "blacked out" after chasing her while she was jogging, but came back with one of the earpieces in his hand around where her body was ditched. I wanted to highlight this to all of you BECAUSE as somebody who wants justice for Mollie Tibbets unrightful persecution, I am very scared that Rivera's lawyers will plead not guilty by reason of insanity. It is possible that it won't swing their way, but if that does happen, it sure will make this trial A LOT harder to deal with.
In conclusion: Trump is still a seventy-year-old tan thumb that chooses to be like every other American teenager and hide behind their cellphone screens instead of properly communicating with humans face to face, but he will not be the only politician using Mollie Tibbets as their next best talking point, and the outrage in the Republican party is just getting started, even though the family has asked not to politicize it (but really, when do you guys think politicians will actually stop arguing?). Rivera did face the first degree murder charges this morning, but what else is in store for Rivera's future, as well as our country's? Ladies and gentlemen, grab whatever you'll need to stay sitting and attempt to stay calm while the politicians start their fires in their branches of DC, because this is the new America, and we are just getting started.
