GRANTS PASS, Ore. (KTVZ) — A man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for a 1983 cold case in Oregon.

The state justice departments says 73-year-old Marcus Sanfratello pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the first degree.

The victim is Teresa Peroni, who was Sanfratello’s girlfriend when she went missing.

Investigators say new DNA evidence and modern forensics techniques helped them build the case decades after her disappearance.
