DNA testing confirmed that human remains found last week belong to missing college student and Austell resident, Jmaal Keyes, authorities said Friday. <\/p>\n
The remains of the Middle Georgia College student were found last week in Hawkinsville, according to GBI spokeswoman Sherry Lang. <\/p>\n
The identification of Keyes was obtained through DNA parentage testing with Keyes biological parents, she said. <\/p>\n
A classmate has been charged with murder in the case. <\/p>\n
The remains were collected on Cabero Road in Hawkinsville in an area adjacent to suspect Robert Kane Rolisons residence. They were discovered near a burned-out cabin in Pulaski County where additional evidence was gathered on Friday, Lang said. <\/p>\n
Rolison, 17, also a Middle Georgia College student, has been moved to the Pulaski County Jail where he is charged with one count of murder. The murder charge in Bleckley County has been dropped since Keyes remains were located in Pulaski County, Lang said. <\/p>\n
Keyes was last seen April 25 leaving his dormitory on the Middle Georgia State College campus in Cochran. Rolison was dual-enrolled at MGSC where he apparently became acquainted with Keyes and a local high school. <\/p>\n
Officials have yet to divulge a motive for the killing, or how Rolison allegedly killed Keyes, a criminal justice major. <\/p>\n
