(Radio Iowa) — Allegations of unwanted sexual advances has led to the suspension of a Catholic priest in southern Iowa. Catholic Diocese of Des Moines Bishop Richard Pates says he took the action immediately after hearing the allegations on Wednesday and he notified police in Chariton.

A statement from the Diocese identifies the suspended priest as Francis Aning Amoah, a visiting clergyman from the West African nation of Ghana, who has ministered in the Diocese of Des Moines since December 2017. Aning Amoah has been serving parishes in Chariton, Corydon, Leon, and Indianola.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The arrest of a Mexican farmworker in the death of an Iowa college student renewed calls to change immigration laws, but it also focused attention on the immigrant workers whose labor is essential to agriculture. Hours after authorities found the body of Mollie Tibbetts, some Republican politicians expressed outrage that the suspect had been able to live illegally in the U.S. for years. Farm groups were more muted, reflecting the difficulty in hiring for dairies and slaughterhouses.

BROOKLYN, Iowa (AP) — A medical examiner says the Iowa college student who was allegedly abducted by a stranger last month died from stab wounds. Authorities say preliminary autopsy results show 20-year-old Mollie Tibbetts was the victim of a homicide who died from “multiple sharp force injuries.” State medical examiner Dennis Klein says that finding means a sharp-edged or pointed object such as a knife was used to attack Tibbetts.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Cindy Axne, the Democratic candidate for Iowa’s 3rd District congressional seat, is calling on Rep. David Young to reject a telephone poll that includes a statement about the death of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts and misstates Axne’s position on immigration. The 15-minute poll asks voters whether the statement would affect their vote.

DAVENPORT, Iowa (AP) — An eastern Iowa woman wanted in connection with the death of her 5-year-old son has been arrested on a charge of first-degree murder and her former boyfriend is still at large. The Quad-City Times reports that 24-year-old Jacqueline Majanise Rambert, of Davenport, was taken into custody Tuesday in Chicago. Murder warrants were issued for Rambert and 26-year-old Tre DeSean Henderson for the death of 5-year-old Ja’Shawn Bussell.

(Radio Iowa) — A big donation is helping Des Moines Area Community college expand its Automotive Technology program. DMACC’s Rob Denson says the current auto facility on the Ankeny campus was built in 1980 and is outdated. A gift presented to the school Wednesday will help double the size of DMACC’s Auto Tech Center.

Carl Moyer, owner of Karl Chevrolet, announced his family is donating $1 million to the $12 million project. Denson said construction will be started later this year and be completed in fall 2020. The project will involve the addition of 22 vehicle bays, a new classroom and student lounge, conference room and showroom. Nine classrooms in the existing facility will be renovated.

The facility will be called the Karl Chevrolet Automotive Technology Center at DMACC.

(Radio Iowa) — The man charged in the murder of Mollie Tibbetts near her Brooklyn, Iowa, home reportedly told investigators all about the incident — but claims he blacked out during the actual attack. Some question that part of the suspect’s story. Psychologist Dr. Jonathan Sikorski, in Omaha, says amnesia does happen in those circumstances, but it’s unlikely.

“They’re in the realm of possibility but they’re pretty rare, about 0.2% of the population,” Dr. Skiorski says. “It’s a pretty common claim after there’s been a murder or a big tragedy.” Twenty-four-year-old Cristhian Rivera is charged in the killing of Tibbetts, a University of Iowa student who was reported missing more than a month ago. Agents say Rivera confessed to following and confronting Tibbetts as she jogged, but then says he got angry and blacked out, coming to later in his car — with her bloody body in the trunk.

Authorities say Rivera led them to the hidden body in a Poweshiek County cornfield. After providing that much detail, why won’t he discuss the alleged murder? Sikorski says forensic psychologists may be able to jar Rivera’s memory. “They’ll have techniques through interviews and they can do some types of psychological testing, but mostly through interviews that they can get to the bottom of that,” Sikorski says. “It’s sometimes a common claim after activities like this or events like this. They have ways of parsing it out.” Sikorski says true amnesia is exceptionally rare and it’s unclear what may be going on in Rivera’s mind.

“A lot of people will claim amnesia or they blacked out,” Sikorski says. “Some people will drink heavily and then say they can’t remember what happened, impaired judgment, things like that. It’s hard to know.” Rivera’s bond is set at five-million dollars. Sikorski is a professor in the Psychiatry Department at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha.
