Death of Irene Garza

Date	April 1960
Location	McAllen, Texas
Cause	Suffocation
Arrest(s)	Former priest John Feit, 2016
Convicted	Murder
Sentence	Life imprisonment

Irene Garza (November 15, 1934 – April 1960) was a South Texas teacher and beauty queen whose death was the subject of investigation for several decades. Garza was last seen alive on April 16, 1960, when she went to confession at a church in McAllen, Texas. She was reported missing the following morning. Following the largest volunteer search to that date in the Rio Grande Valley, Garza's body was discovered in a canal on April 21. An autopsy concluded that she had been sexually assaulted before being killed; the cause of death was suffocation.
Father John Feit, the priest who heard Garza's last confession, was the only identified suspect in her death. Two clergymen, Dale Tacheny and Joseph O'Brien, came forward in 2002 to say that Feit had confessed to them shortly after the murder, but the Hidalgo County district attorney considered the evidence too weak to secure a conviction. The district attorney brought the case before a grand jury in 2004, but Feit, Tacheny and O'Brien were not subpoenaed, and Feit was not indicted.
The investigation into Garza's death was renewed in 2015 after a new district attorney took office in Hidalgo County. In February 2016, the 83-year-old Feit was arrested in Arizona in connection with Garza's death. He was later extradited to Texas. His murder trial began in late November 2017. On December 7, 2017, Feit was found guilty of her death and on December 8, 2017, he was sentenced to life in prison.

約翰法伊特逍遙法外超過半世紀，涉有重嫌的他直到前年才被逮捕到案，法院也在去年判處他無期徒刑，要為他年輕時犯的錯付出代價，還給家屬遲來的正義，若含冤已久的艾琳地下有知，想必也相當欣慰。（編輯：廖俐惠）
