Two suspects have been charged with the murder of Iolan Shawn Cook, whose disappearance in mid-March sparked a 16-day countywide manhunt before his body was discovered northwest of Iola.
Allen County Attorney Jerry Hathaway announced this morning first-degree murder charges were filed against Amber Boeken, 24, Iola, and Joshua Knapp, 34, of Bourbon County.
Cook, 33, was last seen by relatives on March 13. He lived with his aunt, Becky Reaves, in the 400 block of South Kentucky Street.
