Cristhian Bahena Rivera takes the stand in murder trial

[rullmourn]

She let her client take the stand to say this? She has pretty much ruined any sort of reputation she ever had as being a criminal defense lawyer...unreal.

[TacoBellCustomerService]

Unbelievable that a lawyer would let her client even take the stand with this nonsense. It’s insulting to everyone.

[bracesforme]

I dont believe him. He said that if he told, his kid would be harm/killed. That's why he didn't tell the police. The "mask men" that threatened if he told is still out there. Then he tells everyone in the nation on tv/youtube? Doesn't make sense.

Convicting the wrong man is not justice for MollieTibbetts. FREE CBR

[CoolhandLukeSkywalkr]

The dad is in denial about why an illegal immigrant would do this.

[fathih]

Even a 5yr old child will not believe a single word came out from his mouth.

And then a UFO abducted me by two aliens named Jack...

[saraimontes]

The thing that makes it harder for the jury is the fact that his words are translated and sometimes what he says isn’t interpreted accurately or convey what he’s trying to say entirely

[NatalieFromCA]

He’s so f’ing full of himself!! How dare he make up this stupid BS story!!! 😡

[polkadotsuzanne]

This dude wishes in a big way that he could be deported now...he can live here forever..behind bars....such a tragic story

[janicka]

Pretty much copycat story from Jodi Arias. Common now. Second time a charm? I am not buying it. My intelligence feels violated with this ridiculous story.

[renecantu]

Yeah, that story was “not” gonna work, ..🤦‍♂️

[chadgreen]

If these 2 men left bahena with the body how did her clothes get removed that were found around her body. That speaks loudly how these 2 men story is b.s

[willielittle]

Why did the so-called two men leave him alive after forcing him to do this heinous act??? Don't buy that foolish story.

[edynfox]

Oh where is this mysterious woman that Christian was supposedly to have a date with for the following day has anybody contacted her is she alive is she OK does she exist???? Or is it really Molly that he’s referring to because he got cocky and thought that he could persuade her to go out on a date with him and when she rejected him he was embarrassed and humiliated and furious and killed her instead...???

[alexalegado]

If proven guilty..death penalty..to all monsters..we don't need them in our society...

[butterflyeyes]

Fool is lying. He was stalking women and found Mollie. She probably was trying to defend herself as much as she could from him and he thought killing her was the best option since he's illegal. Poor woman. Justice has been found for you...it's unfortunate your life was taken.

I call radio talk show to talk politics and Trump. Its around Christmas time. Sunday evening. Vikings beat Bears at TCF Bank stadium. I believe white farmers have a good relationship with Hispanics that work for them. Guy says it isn't good. He wants it changed. Why? He then asks me where I would leave body. I say in a cornfield at the right time of year. Guy is very upset and serious and says this is actually going to happen. I am confused. I think he was telling me about what he knew of the Molly tibbets murder plot among other political plans that where no good. How did they know to report this disappearance so early?

[tessa]

No struggle with the two men?? Just went with them without any fight?! This is such a joke of a defense!

[colleenreimer]

How can it be that lawyers tell their clients to tell some cockamamie story while they are under oath! You know they’ve coached him. It’s disgusting!
