(Deadspin)
And then this complete tragedy out of Iowa.
2018 Big XII women's golf individual champion Celia Barquin Arozamena was found deceased on her home golf course in Ames, Iowa on Monday. (She attended Iowa State University.)
She had been taken from the course, assaulted, and murdered on Monday morning September 17th -- a call came in when her golf bag was found unattended at approximately 10:24 AM.
Won the recent European Ladies' Amateur Championship, participated in the most recent US Women's Open. Was ranked #69 in the women's golf rankings in Golfweek, the Spaniard appeared to be on the fast-track to the LPGA Tour after completing her civil engineering degree this term at ISU...
Iowa State, last school year, named her their Female Athlete of the Year.
... until, it is alleged, she was assaulted and murdered by a man on the course. Now charged for the murder is Collin Daniel Richards, who, like his alleged victim, is 22. Ames police have no known address for Richards, meaning he probably was a transient!
One of the commenters has noted that Richards actually said he wanted to rape and kill a woman, showed up at a friend's house covered in sand and blood, and no one bothered to notify the police until after.
Ahem... Accessory After The Fact, Iowa Code 703.3
