Michael Henslick, 30, was identified as the man charged with murdering 22-year-old Holly Cassano nearly nine years ago, the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. Authorities used DNA evidence found at the scene of Cassano’s murder, online genealogy databases, and public records before identifying Henslick as a suspect, the sheriff’s office said at a Wednesday news conference. Deputies watched Henslick for two days to try to obtain DNA evidence, authorities said. Henslick’s DNA matched with the DNA evidence from the crime scene, the sheriff’s office said. Henslick was arrested Tuesday around 6:15 p.m. outside Market Place Mall in Champaign and booked into the Champaign County Jail on a $10 million bond, according to the release.
