After six decades the murder of Irene Garza, a south Texas beauty queen was solved. It turned out her killer was a priest.
At the end of 2017, John Bernard Feit, 85, was found guilty of murder with malice aforethought. A jury deliberated for six hours before reaching the verdict. The crime was the killing of Irene Garza, a 25-year-old school teacher on April 14, 1960. She was a beautiful young woman who had been Miss All South Texas Sweetheart in 1958, and a former prom and homecoming queen at what then was Pan American College.
