Supreme Court reinstates conviction in 1979 disappearance of Etan Patz

The Supreme Court reinstated a murder conviction in the 1979 disappearance of 6-year-old Etan Patz by a 6-3 vote, reversing a federal appeals court decision that overturned the verdict. The ruling allowed prosecutors to proceed with a third trial against Pedro Hernandez, who had confessed to the crime but whose lawyers claim he did so falsely due to mental illness.
