Timeline

1972

Etan Kalil Patz (October 9, 1972May 25, 1979) was an American boy who was six years old on May 25, 1979, when he disappeared on his way to his school bus stop in the SoHo neighborhood of Lower Manhattan.

His disappearance helped launch the missing children movement, which included new legislation and new methods for tracking down missing children.

1979

On the morning of May 25, 1979, Etan left his SoHo apartment at 113 Prince Street by himself for the first time, planning to walk two blocks to board a school bus at West Broadway and Prince Street.

He was wearing a black "Future Flight Captain" pilot cap, a blue corduroy jacket, blue jeans and blue sneakers with fluorescent stripes.

He never got on the bus.

At school, Etan's teacher noticed his absence but did not report it to the principal.

When Etan did not return home after school, his mother Julie called the police.

At first, detectives considered the Patzes to be possible suspects but quickly determined they had no involvement.

An intense search began that evening, using nearly 100 police officers and a team of bloodhounds.

The search continued for weeks.

Neighbors and police canvassed the city and placed missing-child posters featuring Etan's portrait, but this resulted in few leads.

Etan's father Stanley was a professional photographer and had a collection of photographs he had taken of his son.

His photos of Etan were printed on countless missing-child posters and milk cartons.

They were also projected on screens in Times Square.

1980

Several years after he disappeared, Patz was one of the first children to be profiled on the "photo on a milk carton" campaigns of the early 1980s.

Ramos had been known by the Patz family and was the prime suspect all along, but in the early 1980s authorities were unable to prosecute Ramos.

1982

In 1982, multiple boys had accused Ramos of trying to lure them into a drain pipe in the area where Ramos was living.

When police searched the drain pipe, they found photographs of Ramos and young boys who resembled Etan.

GraBois eventually found out that Ramos had been in custody in Pennsylvania in connection with an unrelated child molestation case.

1983

In 1983, President Ronald Reagan designated May 25—the anniversary of Etan's disappearance—as National Missing Children's Day in the United States.

Decades later, it was determined that Patz had been abducted and murdered the same day that he went missing.

1985

Assistant United States Attorney Stuart R. GraBois received the case in 1985 and identified Jose Antonio Ramos, a convicted child sexual abuser who had been a friend of Etan's former babysitters, as the primary suspect.

1990

In 1990, GraBois was deputized as a deputy state attorney general in Pennsylvania to help prosecute a case against Ramos for sexually abusing children and to obtain further information about Etan's case.

When first questioned by GraBois, Ramos stated that, on the day when Etan disappeared, he had taken a young boy back to his apartment to rape him.

Ramos said that he was "90 percent sure" it was the boy whom he later saw on television.

However, Ramos did not use Etan's name.

He also claimed he had put the boy on a subway going uptown.

1991

In 1991, while Ramos was incarcerated, a jailhouse informant told GraBois and FBI agent Mary Galligan that Ramos had told him he knew what had happened to Etan.

Ramos even drew a map of Etan's school bus route, indicating that he knew that Etan's bus stop was the third one on the route.

1999

In a special feature on missing children, the New York Post reported on October 21, 1999, that Ramos was the prime suspect in Etan's disappearance.

2001

Etan's body was never found, and he was declared legally dead on June 19, 2001.

2004

Stan and Julie Patz pursued and won a civil case against Ramos in 2004.

2010

The case was reopened in 2010 by the Manhattan District Attorney's office.

2012

In 2012, the FBI excavated the basement of the alleged crime scene near the Patz residence but discovered no new evidence.

Pedro Hernandez—a suspect who confessed—was charged and indicted later that year on charges of second-degree murder and first-degree kidnapping.

2014

In 2014, the case went through a series of hearings to determine whether or not Hernandez's statements before he received his Miranda warning were legally admissible at trial.

2015

His trial began in January 2015 and it ended with a mistrial that May, when 1 of the 12 jurors held out.

2016

The retrial began on October 19, 2016, and it was concluded on February 14, 2017, after nine days of deliberations, when the jury found Hernandez guilty of murder and kidnapping.

2017

Hernandez was sentenced to 25-years-to-life in prison on April 18, 2017.

Hernandez will not be eligible for parole for 25 years.
