DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — A job application that required a Florida man to undergo a background check and submit his fingerprints has led to a break in a 1998 slaying case.
Todd Barket, a 51-year-old from Brandon, was arrested Wednesday and charged with first-degree murder in the death of Sondra Better. Better was killed at her workplace days before she was set to renew her wedding vows, according to local news outlets.
The 68-year-old had resigned from the job and only had a few days left there. She was stabbed and beaten to death, and police said DNA from the suspect was found at the scene.
