After an exhaustive investigation spanning over three decades, a breakthrough was finally made in the Aton Pat’s case. The suspect, 51-year-old Pedro, was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. Details emerged revealing that Pedro was just 18 years old when Aton originally disappeared. He was employed as a store clerk in a bodega near West Broadway and Prince Street, conveniently located near Aton’s bus stop.
Pedro allegedly lured Aton into the basement of the bodega, secluded from any potential witnesses. It was there that he launched a vicious attack on Aton, resulting in his tragic demise. Shockingly, Pedro admitted to attempting to conceal the evidence of his heinous crime by disposing of Aton’s body in a bag and nonchalantly returning to work as if nothing had occurred.
In February of 2017, justice was served as Pedro was found guilty and handed a 25-year to life sentence. The emotional impact of the conviction was palpable as Aton’s loved ones confronted Pedro in court. One grieving family member, Stanley, voiced the collective anguish felt by Aton’s relatives, accusing Pedro of callously discarding their beloved child like garbage. The haunting words echoed through the courtroom, serving as a poignant reminder of the devastating consequences of Pedro’s malevolent actions.

Please bring awareness to the 32 children kidnapped from their homes by Hamas terrorists and are held hostage in gaza for over a month😢
You do amazing work filming please do it for them too
@NeedToKnow2420
He just confessed out of the blue? So odd. Plus there were CP videos and sightings of Etan out of the country. Bizarre case.
@MaurLiz
Etan was such a beautiful little boy. My heart broke for him when he went missing. I'm glad his parents finally found out what happened to him. Poor little Etan. I hope he is resting in peace & knows that we will never forgot him. 😢 💔 🙏

I'll never ever understand
@Psylliumhead

So sad
@monikapadilla3902
I don’t believe it. I’ve heard traffickers will pay very well for someone to take the fall of law enforcement is getting close to the truth that could implicate elites 🤷♀️
@DaughterOfJC4ever
Wow! I did not know this was finally solved! Amazing! The father is incorrect tho, God does forgive.. even the most evil. He's a loving God. A type of love we humans have a difficult time comprehending.
@Crystalburns2001
it's sick that he lived most of his life free after doing something like this 😪 💔🖤😥
@leannebalmer5184
The pain in those 33years without any accountability is unimaginable. I will never understand why anyone would do this,godbless this family x
@adrukova1407
Crazy that he lived most of his life (18-51) like a normal citizen, free, working, traveling, living his life with his loved ones. Should've been automatic Life Sentence once he got caught..🤬
@Babykisses908
Such a sad story, a parents worse nightmare. Why did he get this sentence when he lured a innocent child to the basement to fulfill his sick and evil mind to kill a child. This is a Death sentence. My this beloved child and his family know everyone’s thoughts and prayers are with them all. What is wrong with our legal system and our world.
@emc129
So incredibly evil and sad.
@kimberlydavis4772
What causes someone to do such dark and violent things?
@Sandy-fx6si
I’m angry at the fact that he was only prosecuted for second-degree murder when obviously he committed first degree murder
