Miguel s body was found in a wash in Agoura Hills on April 8, 1986, the same day he went missing from his Agoura Hills home.
Rasmuson was arrested in Idaho in 2015 after a DNA hit connected him to Jeffrey s killing, and he was subsequently linked to Miguel s slaying. He pleaded no contest Feb. 22 to two counts of murder and admitted the special circumstance allegation of multiple murders.
Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer made the highly unusual move earlier that month to charge Rasmuson for Jeffrey s killing, even though the defendant was already facing trial for that murder in Los Angeles County.
