Authorities have positively identified a Mitchell teenager as the victim in a slaying this month that involved a body found in the trunk of a burned car.
Attorney General Marty Jackley says DNA testing at the South Dakota Forensic Laboratory led to the identification of 16-year-old Jasmine Guevara.
Her remains were found Nov. 10. Charged in her death are two people who recently came to Mitchell from Fort Wayne, Ind. - 20-year-old Alexander Salgado and a 15-year-old girl.
Court documents say the motive for the killing is believed to be the girl's jealousy over a developing relationship between Salgado and Guevara.
