A significant development has occurred in a decades-old case involving a missing child. The Supreme Court has reinstated a murder conviction related to the 1979 disappearance of a 6-year-old boy from New York City. The court's decision was made with a 6-3 vote, in response to an appeal from New York prosecutors.

The prosecutors had sought to overturn a federal appeals court decision that had previously overturned the verdict. Further details about the case and the Supreme Court's decision are available from KSAT 12, a local news source in San Antonio.
