Mistrial declared in the case of man accused of killing schoolboy Etan Patz in 1979 - @ABC7NY, @NBCNews
Etan Patz disappeared in 1979 and his photo appeared on milk cartons across the U.S. The case helped create awareness of missing children across the county, CNN reports. Pedro Hernandez confessed to the killing three years ago, but his lawyers said he made up his account of the crime and has been diagnosed with schizotypal personality disorder. The New York jury in the case struggled to reach a verdict since April 15 and had told the judge twice before it was unable to reach a unanimous decision.
