The Iowa farm that employed the illegal immigrant accused of killing Mollie Tibbetts actually didn’t use the E-Verify system after initially claiming it did.
Yarrabee Farms co-owner Dane Lang said late on Aug. 22 that the farm didn’t use the system, after claiming it had used it to vet Cristhian Rivera earlier in the day.

Illegal Immigrant Used Fake ID

Lang said that Rivera presented a state-issued photo ID and a social security card when applying to work at the farm, which enabled him to pass an I-9 (state check) and social security verification. But the identity the illegal immigrant presented was fake.
