Charges Filed In Bookstore Owner's Decade-Old Slaying

Prosecutors filed murder charges Monday in slaying of a bookstore owner 10 years ago.  

Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill says DNA evidence played a key role in solving the homicide of Sherry Black, including a sample collected secretly by investigators. Still, the Deseret News reports the prosecutor did not reveal specifics about what led police to focus on 29-year-old Adam Durborow. He has been charged with aggravated murder, which carries the possibility of the death penalty. Black was the mother-in-law of Greg Miller, the former CEO of the ownership company of the Utah Jazz NBA team.
