Forty-eight years after the original crime, it took a California jury a little more than an hour to find John Arthur Getreu guilty of murdering 21-year-old Janet Ann Taylor.
Getreu’s conviction marked an end to Taylor’s decades-old cold case for which advancements in DNA technology played a critical role.In his closing statements, Halley asserted that the prosecution had not proved Getreu’s guilt “beyond reasonable doubt."
“While these promising lives are gone forever, thanks to the dogged work of detectives and the advances in forensic science, I have hope that future lives will be saved and other predators held accountable,” she said.Outside the back of the courthouse, she embraced Santa Clara cold case detective Sgt. Noe Cortez, who had gathered crucial evidence in this case.
When called for comment about today’s verdict, Getreu's only son Aaron Getreu asked to convey sympathy to Taylor’s family and all his father’s victims.
