A Pennsylvania man has been charged in connection with a 1993 sexual assault after investigators linked his DNA to the victim using a public genealogy website, authorities said.

Jeffrey King, 54, of Coatesville, was busted on Oct. 3, some 26 years after a 22-year-old woman was attacked as she walked along a sidewalk in Newark, Delaware.

The victim reported the sexual assault, telling investigators that the suspect also fled with her clothes and personal belongings, but no arrests were made, Newark police said Tuesday.

The victim was taken to a hospital for a sex assault examination and a composite sketch was handed out to nearby residents, but King was never identified as a possible suspect, police said.

That changed in late 2017 when Newark police reopened the case as part of Delaware’s Sexual Assault Kit Initiative, leading a detective assigned to the case to send the sexual assault kit to a private lab to identify possible DNA samples.

“It illustrates that there are police and prosecutors who are working towards justice every day, even in cases that may have seemed cold,” Jennings said. “And it tells survivors that when they come forward to report a rape or sexual assault, we will do everything we can to support them and seek justice on their behalf.”

It also tells criminals to beware, in due time your ass is grass!
