Authorities say DNA of man in an
Oklahoma jail is being compared to evidence from the 1996 rape and
murder of a 21-year-old University of Oklahoma student from
Arkansas.
A search warrant says DNA taken from Mark Christian Every is
being tested for a possible connection to the murder of Jewell
"Juli" Busken of Benton. Authorities say Every lived in east
Norman when Busken was killed and he`s jailed on a warrant from
Orange County, California.
Cleveland County District Attorney Tim Kuykendall calls Every "just one more possible suspect" in
the case.
Busken was an Arkansas native who was kidnapped in the parking
lot outside her east Norman apartment on December 20th, 1996. She
was raped and killed and her body left at Lake Stanley Draper. She
was a ballerina.
