Alleged New Suspects In Mollie Tibbetts Case Pictured For The First Time

exclusive: are these the real killers of mollie tibbetts? inmate who ‘confessed’ to helping kill mollie tibbetts with ‘suspected sex trafficker’ is pictured as the judge is set to rule on a new trial that could exonerate the convicted illegal immigrant

The sentencing of 27-year-old Cristhian Bahena Rivera was delayed Wednesday after defense attorneys presented new information they believe acquits him
during his trial bahena rivera had claimed that two masked men kidnapped him then met mollie tibbetts on a country road and then stabbed her
defense attorneys on thursday said two witnesses, arne maki and lyndsey marie voss , had come forward separately to partially support bahena rivera’s account
maki said fellow inmate gavin jones, 21, , allegedly confessed that he helped kill tibbetts after she was kidnapped and held in a house used for sex trafficking
jones identified the owner of the house as james manuel lowe , 50, who allegedly ran a sex-trafficking operation near the city n atal de tibbetts
a second witness, jones’s ex-girlfriend, lyndsey marie voss, stated that he told her: ‘that mexican shouldn’t be in jail…because I raped her and killed her’
the hearing was to determine whether prosecutors should be ordered to release information to bahena rivera’s lawyers about a sex trafficking investigation
On Friday, the judge rejected the motion, calling it ‘too broad’ and saying the request for a new trial ‘was not an opportunity to investigate third parties’
The judge will hold a hearing on the defense’s request for a new trial on July 27
