One murder charge was dropped Friday evening after it was determined that it was a duplicate charge. McCraney said that on July 31, 1999, Beasley called him to meet her at the Big/Little store on Broad Street at 10 p.m. He said that she did not show up but later, as he was driving home, he experienced car trouble and pulled into store on Broad Street where he saw Beasley and Hawlett. He said he offered to show the girls, who said they were lost, a short cut back to Highway 231, if they would give him a ride.

Advancements in DNA technology led to the identification of McCraney as a suspect, Marshall said. “In March 2019, the OPD received an answer it had been waiting on for years. The defendant’s profile matched DNA evidence on the victim.”
