Murder of Juli Busken

Common card · No. 356337

On December 20, 1996, in Oklahoma, 21-year-old Juli Busken, a University of Oklahoma dance student and resident of Benton, Arkansas, was abducted from her apartment's parking lot and subsequently raped and murdered. The case remained unsolved for years before the killer was caught while he was in jail for burglary. The murderer, Anthony Sanchez (November 1, 1978 – September 21, 2023), whose DNA profile matched that of the sperm on Busken's clothing, was convicted of the murder and sentenced to death in 2006. Sanchez, however, protested his innocence and claimed that his father was the real killer. Sanchez was eventually executed on September 21, 2023.
