K.C. Suspect Wants Women’s Skeletal Remains Retested

A man charged in the deaths of two women nearly a decade apart is asking that the women’s skeletal remains be retested.

Attorneys for Kylr Yust filed a motion this week asking the state to provide the remains of Kara Kopetsky and Jessica Runions to his defense.

In a motion filed Tuesday, Yust said he wants an expert to examine the evidence in a private laboratory.

Kopetsky was 17 when she disappeared in 2007.

Runions was 21 when she disappeared in 2016.

Their remains were found in a Cass County field in 2017.

Yust is charged with murder in both cases.
