Prosecutors will retry man in death of Etan Patz, whose 1979 disappearance spotlighted missing kids

NEW YORK (AP) — A notorious 1979 missing-child case will go to trial a third time after New York prosecutors vowed Tuesday to retry the man whose murder conviction was recently overturned in the disappearance of 6-year-old Etan Patz.

In a case that has long been gnarled by time and uncertainty, a new set of prosecutors now will need to bring back witnesses, elicit memories and try to persuade another jury that Pedro Hernandez lured and killed the boy as he walked to his New York City school bus stop.
