Archived: Two Men Indicted By Benton County Jury in Jamie Wylie Murder Case

ST. CLOUD, Minn. (AP) – A Benton County grand jury has indicted two men in the death of a man who had been missing for several months.

The St. Cloud Times reports 26-year-old Travis McKinney was indicted this week in the death of 31-year-old Jamie Wylie of Foley. McKinney was charged in May with first- and second-degree murder, being a felon in possession of a firearm and interfering with a dead body.

Twenty-five-year-old Joshua Smith was indicted on charges of aiding and abetting first- and second-degree murder.

Wylie was found with gunshot wounds behind a business east of St. Cloud in March. His family said they last had contact with him in December.

Prosecutors say McKinney shot Wylie twice with a shotgun and Smith drove the men to the area.
