Who Killed Rachael DelTondo?
A man on police radar for the shooting death of a school teacher is convicted of murder in a different case. Both times the victims had been out for ice cream. "48 Hours" correspondent Erin Moriarty reports. | [EDITOR'S NOTE: On Aug.15, 2023, Beaver County District Attorney David Lozier has named Sheldon Jeter as the prime suspect in the murder of Rachael DelTondo but says he does not have enough evidence to arrest the now 25-year-old man. Lozier says he is publicly naming Jeter to help bring closure to her family, and in hopes that members of the public may have information relevant to the five-year-old case. Jeter's defense attorney Michael Santicola says, "this is much to do about nothing," and that Lozier still has no murder weapon, no eyewitnesses and no forensic evidence. In 2021, Lozier's office convicted Jeter of first-degree murder for the May 2020 shooting death of his friend Tyric Pugh, 30. Jeter was sentenced to life in that case, but a hearing on alleged juror misconduct is pending.]
