Mollie Tibbetts investigation: Chevy Malibu seen in surveillance video not registered to suspect Rivera, source says

BROOKLYN, Iowa –  The Chevy Malibu that investigators linked to Cristhian Rivera, the illegal immigrant suspected of killing Iowa college student Mollie Tibbetts, was not registered in Rivera's name, a law enforcement source revealed to Fox News on Wednesday.

Police said Tuesday that the Malibu, which was caught on surveillence footage in Brooklyn, Iowa, was driving back and forth in the area where Tibbetts, a 20-year-old University of Iowa student, was running in the "late afternoon hours of July 18," the day she went missing.

"We were able to, first of all, see what we believed to have been Mollie running on one of the streets," Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation special agent Rick Rahn told Fox News. "From that, we started to look into all the vehicles that were also captured on video and eventually identified the vehicle that was driven by Mr. Rivera."

So... "how they caught him"... from this, it sounds like they got a lead on the car from a video, they tracked the car down, it wasn't in Rivera's name but maybe his imposter ID, we will find this all out. I just don't want to misstate the matter.

Of course it wasn't. As an illegal alien he probably wasn't insurable, and without insurance, you can't get registration.

Right, he sounds like he had his double-identity which at the point, law enforcement is not telling us the name. My speculation, sure, he could have been driving the car of someone else as well. I doubt if he had insurance. Who knows though? You buy a car on craig's list or any ol' car for sale in the neighborhood, you are suppose to register it but one might skip doing that.
