NEW YORK – Jurors in the New York murder trial involving the 1979 disappearance of 6-year-old Etan Patz (AY-tahn payts) have asked for dozens of exhibits, hours of read-back testimony and a spreadsheet to organize their thoughts. Now they're getting a new tool — a printer.
A 13th full day of deliberations began Monday in the case against Pedro Hernandez. Jurors requested a printer to make hard copies of their spreadsheet for discussion.
A judge nixed an earlier request for a printer. But he approved it this time, saying some technical problems had been solved.
Etan was among the first missing children pictured on milk cartons.
Hernandez made a surprise confession to authorities in 2012. His lawyers say it's false, and they've pointed to another suspect who was never charged.
The hottest stories ripped from the headlines, from crime to courts, legal and scandal.
