EDITOR'S NOTE: The victim's name has been corrected.

Prosecutors have filed two new charges against two suspects in the death of a Moberly teenager whose remains were found in a conservation area last month.

Christopher Hull, 23, and Hunter Ames, 19, both of Moberly, were charged Friday with first-degree property damage and first-degree burglary for allegedly pouring oil or antifreeze into Kayla Huff's gas tank the night of her death, according to court documents.

The two were already charged with kidnapping and evidence tampering, and Ames is charged with first-degree murder. Alayna Mason is also charged with first-degree murder, while Julian Mason has been charged with kidnapping and evidence tampering.

A juvenile has also been charged in the case.

Huff was last seen May 6 before her body was found about a week later.

Ames and Alayna Mason allegedly told police that the group killed Huff by shooting her.

Hull had a hearing Monday afternoon, and Ames has a hearing set for July 23.
