SAN JUAN COUNTY, Utah — The roommate of two men who went missing from southeastern Utah over two weeks ago has officially been charged with their murder.
Charles Youngkuom Yoo, 35, was charged Wednesday with two counts of aggravated murder and one count of obstruction of justice. Yoo was originally arrested for obstruction of justice and held without bail after a search warrant was served at his house in Blanding, where he and the two missing men lived.
During the investigation for the men, 29-year-old William "Drew" Bull and 28-year-old Christopher "Topher" Owens, police considered the case to be a homicide investigation after interviewing Yoo.
During the interview, Yoo told police he saw the two men leave the house on February 26, but police could only document their last whereabouts the day before when they were returning home from Moab.
