Mollie Tibbetts' Father Implores Politicians To Stop Making Her Death Political cosmopolitan.com

Ever since the alleged murderer in the death of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts was revealed to be an undocumented immigrant, the case has become central to the heated national debate over immigration policy.

Mollie's father, Rob, however, is having none of it, and is not happy with how anti-immigration politicians are using Mollie's case to support racist views. Her father made it clear that he did not hold any animosity towards Iowan immigrants at his daughter's funeral last week, CNN reports, saying, "The Hispanic community are Iowans. They have the same values as Iowans. As far as I'm concerned, they're Iowans with better food."
