A significant development has occurred in a decades-old case involving a missing boy from New York City. The Supreme Court has reinstated a murder conviction related to the 1979 disappearance of a 6-year-old boy. 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 reverse a federal appeals court decision that had previously overturned the verdict. Further details on this case are available from KSAT 12, the local ABC affiliate, which has been following the story.
