Title: Big 12 champion murdered
Post by: MakeItRain on September 18, 2018, 01:48:48 AM
The 2017 Big 12 Women's Golf Champion was murdered in Ames on Monday morning, on a golf course. Her name is Celia Arozamena and she's from Spain. She completed her eligibility last year but she was finishing her degree, she was going to graduate in December. She was murdered on the 9th hole at around 10am Monday morning.

The dude that did it lived in a homeless encampment between the golf course and a multiplex theatre just east of campus.

That's horrible.  Just read about it.  How was there no one else on the course to stop this from happening?  And wouldn't the 9th hole be right near the clubhouse?  So senseless.

It had to happen quickly, there was a foursome of retirees that let her play through just a half hour quickly and they found her stuff on the fairway. They called the clubhouse and they found her in a pond. There is a public bike path near the 9th and people here suspect he was hanging around that path.

Did the guy turn himself in? That’s a really quick turn around time to have the suspect in custody.

No, he didn't. They almost certainly found some of her stuff at that encampment. I think because they immediately knew the time frame it helped the investigation. I don't know this but I suspect they had some surveillance video either from the golf course or from the apartment complex next to the course.

At 1:35 p.m., officers were conducting a search of the area when they located a male leaving the area of the golf course and a nearby walking trail.

The male was identified by officers, and made a statement to police to effect of “What did he do to her?” During a subsequent interview, that male, only identified as “D.B.,” identified Collin Daniel Richards as an acquaintance who had stayed with him in the same area of temporary residence.

“D.B.” told police that within the last few days, Collin Daniel Richards had told him he “had an urge to rape and kill a woman.” The statement was made while the two were walking near the Coldwater Golf Links.
