Former morgue worker Kenneth Douglas is accused of having had sex with the body of 19-year-old Karen Range after she was brutally murdered in 1982.

Even though a quarter of a century has passed since the incident, DNA evidence has only recently linked Douglas to the sexual crime.

Even though Douglas' lawyer wants the case dropped on the grounds that the statute of limitations has run out, the prosecutor argues that the statute begins when investigators discover who committed the crime, not when it actually happened.

The paperwork to dismiss the case is expected to be filed later this week.
