Emmett Cressell, Junior was scheduled for trial next week in the death of Garnett "G-P" Johnson.
Authorities say the former Marine was doused with gasoline, burned alive and later decapitated.
A judge postponed the trial to give the state crime lab more time to analyze evidence.
Cressell's attorney says authorities waited until this week to collect hair and fingerprints from his client.
A second suspect is charged with capital murder.

[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=03-Franklin County/Monday]
Jody Smith of Rocky Mount owns this land in Burnt Chimney -- where agents raided a high-tech moonshine still earlier this week.
The still was found underground -- in a cellar hidden underneath this garage.
Jody Smith says he rented the garage to James Junior Dillon, known as Dick Dillon, but that he died around Christmas in a car wreck.
Agents say the still stopped producing around the time of Dillon's death, but someone had recently stacked enough grain and sugar to start the operation up again.
Authorities think the bootleggers fled just before the bust.
ABC agents say neighbors often pin moonshine stills on a dead person, so it's impossible to place charges.
James Junior Dillon was charged with bootlegging in 1994, but those charges were dismissed.
Authorities say a next- door- neighbor supplied electricity for the still-- but agents say he is disabled and was not part of the moonshine making.
