Man charged with murder in 1993 death of prostitute
Updated: 04/21/2010 11:42:19 PM CDT
When Preston Arnold, a hapless career criminal from Minneapolis, was sentenced for drug possession three years ago, the judge set several routine terms for his probation, including that he must give a DNA sample.
This week, that sample returned to haunt him.
Arnold, 49, was charged with second-degree murder late Tuesday in the 1993 killing of a woman whose partially clad and frozen body was found along railroad tracks not far from the Mississippi River in Minneapolis’ Camden Industrial Area.
The victim, Glora Dean Clay, 35, was an Arkansas-born prostitute who had been arrested under nine different names. She had been strangled, and there was evidence she may have been sexually assaulted.
…
Clay herself was no stranger to the other side of the law. State court records show she had prostitution convictions in 1987, 1988, 1989, 1991 and 1992 as well as a 1992 conviction for possession of crack cocaine.
