Zion William Teasley, 22, was arrested on May 4 and has been linked to the killing through DNA, video, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nationwide-manhunt-underway-for-mother-whose-son-was-found-dead-in-suitcase\/\" title=\"Nationwide Manhunt Underway For Mother Whose Son Was Found Dead In Suitcase\">cell phone evidence<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>According to news reports, Teasley told police that he &#8220;wanted to look like&#8221; Heike when shown a photo of the victim during questioning. He also reportedly spoke about growing up as a Christian and struggling with his sexuality, fearing for his soul&#8217;s salvation due to his thoughts.<\/p>\n<h3>Prior Criminal Record<\/h3>\n<p>Teasley&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/alleged-phoenix-killer-used-they-them-pronouns-makes-disturbing-confession-to-police\/\" title=\"Phoenix suspect used they\/them pronouns, confesses disturbingly to police.\">prior criminal record includes charges<\/a> of robbery, kidnapping, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He served time from July 2021 until November 2022 as a result of a plea deal. <\/p>\n<h3>Investigation Ongoing<\/h3>\n<p>Police have not yet concluded their investigation into whether the attack was random or targeted. Heike had been stabbed 15 times, and her belongings were scattered along the trail, indicating that she may have tried to negotiate a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-cruelty-is-the-point-folks\/\" title=\"The Cruelty Is the Point, Folks\">barbed-wire fence<\/a> during the ordeal. <\/p>\n<h3>Do You Think Teasley is the Murderer?<\/h3>\n<p>Teasley&#8217;s LinkedIn account indicates that he served in the Marine Corps for one year and four months before being medically discharged.
