    An undocumented immigrant told police that he killed University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts in a "moment of panic" after she attempted to call for help on her cell phone, court papers show. https://usat.ly/2wfljnn pic.twitter.com/1M1iKg6t7h

        It’s tragic. But an American also killed his wife and kids in Colorado. Being undocumented didn’t cause the murder in itself.

        Undocumented or illegal means the crime could have been easily avoided if he wasn't here.

        How necessary is it for you to use an undocumented immigrant as the first words attached with killing, I mean could you have just said a man? A woman or perhaps the age maybe? The way you are portraying this news already tell what you are trying to say, stop!@USATODAY be better!

        never forget what they found that day. Some things can't be unseen. Maybe one day she would have married and have had children of her own. All this has ended because of the actions of one man who decided to murder her. Yet it bothers you most that he was called undocumented ?

        Yes. Because if that was a white man, would you say a white man killed a young girl? No it would only say a man. That’s what I have a problem with.

        Uhhhh first of all I full do not believe you are actually Mexican and second of all no, it's not racist, because white people hold the power in this country and therefore are not oppressed or impacted by racism.

        He shouldn’t have been here. @realDonaldTrump was right! We need to protect the people of the USA by not allowing any person to pass borders illegally!!!

        The owner of the farm is a republican politician. Why did they no hire American citizens to begin with. The hypocrisy blows my mind.

        Actually it isn’t “hypocrisy” it was a government system saying the incorrect thinghttps://twitter.com/rjfoley/status/1032092715218022400?s=21 …

        ...yo, I would never defend a murderer, but how is it relevant that he was undocumented? I don't see you talking about the white American men who kill people and specifically focusing on the fact that they are white Americans?

        The murder could have easily been avoided if he had been deported or something idk but that’s how I see it
