Police say information in this case was minimal and attempts to identify the suspect were slow to develop. However, police say detectives continued to work the case for nearly three years before arrests were made.
Shawn Donzell Bossard, 27, who was already in the Pre-Trial Detention Facility on unrelated crimes, was additionally arrested for second-degree murder.
An arrest warrant was also obtained for Jeffery Lorenzo Herring, Jr., 28, for second-degree murder. JSO says he was subsequently located in Leon County, Florida and taken into custody by the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force.
