Talking Dateline: The Last Mile

Andrea Canning talks with Josh Mankiewicz about his episode, “The Last Mile,” which covers the 2018 murder of Mollie Tibbetts in her hometown of Brooklyn, Iowa. The 20-year-old college student disappeared while out for a run, sparking a massive search. Weeks later, Mollie’s body was found in a cornfield. Cristhian Bahena Rivera, a local farmworker, was charged with her murder. Andrea and Josh discuss the investigation that led to Rivera’s arrest and the questions raised during his trial. Josh also shares a podcast-exclusive clip from his interview with Mollie’s cousin, Morgan Collum, about their childhood.
