39-year-old Vallis L. Slaughter has been arrested and charged in connection with the 2012 murder of 34-year-old Julio Torres in Pennsylvania. DNA from a discarded cigarette butt matched to a bitten piece of a Styrofoam cup found at the crime scene linked Slaughter to the crime. The case initially led to the arrest and conviction of Jomain Case, who was involved in an argument with the victim before his death. The investigation went cold for years until new evidence, including a cell phone picture, helped identify Slaughter as the alleged shooter.
