Based only on the little we know now, I think it's most likely that Rivera claimed to have blacked out between catching Mollie and dumping her body because he doesn't want to cop to sexually assaulting her.
Killers of women and children often leave that part out of their confessions.
But, it's possible that Rivera is taking the fall for someone else or that his confession was coerced. It wouldn't be the first time.
The medical examiner's report may take a few weeks to complete. Hopefully, the ME will be able to determine if Mollie was sexually assaulted and how she was killed.
Also, it's possible that perpetrator DNA can be collected from her body if Mollie was sexually assaulted and/or if she fought back.
Rivera is expected to appear in court today. Maybe we'll learn a few more details.
