KMBC: Kylr Yust found guilty of killing Kara Kopetsky, Jessica Runions
Deets . . .
A St. Charles County jury found Yust guilty on count one of voluntary manslaughter in the death of Kara Kopetsky and guilty on count two of murder in the second degree in the death of Jessica Runions.
The women were killed nearly a decade apart. Jurors deliberated for about 15 hours to reach the verdict.
The sentencing phase is expected to begin Friday.
He's looking at up to 30 years maximum with a minimum of at least 10 years. Skeptical hot take: After the story fades from public memory, he could be out in about 7 years for this conviction based completely on circumstantial evidence and mostly by way of his own confession.
