THE JOHN FEIT MURDER TRIAL

John Feit was the allegedly the last person to see Irene Garza in 1960 on Easter Saturday. She was a 25 year old schoolteacher in McAllen, Texas. Feit was a 27 year old visiting Roman Catholic priest at McAllen's Sacred Heart Church. Garza went to confession that Saturday. She never made it home.

Thursday April 21, 1960 her body was found in a burlap sack in a canal on 2nd Street in McAllen, Texas.

Father John Feit became a suspect. Allegedly unholy Trinity of the Catholic Church, McAllen Police Department and the Hidalgo County Sheriff's Department covered up the crime. All three entities allegedly protected Feit.

In lateNovember 2017 Hidalgo County District Attorney Ricardo Rodriguez took the octogenarian former priest to trial on a murder charge.

The DA's lead prosecutor convicted Feit on hearsay and emotion.

No Real Evidence Was Presented.

The defense planned an appeal.

D.A. Rodriguez defeated long time District Attorney Rene Guerra in 2014 using the Irene Garza Murder Cold Case as a politicized weapon. Rene Guerra had said he could not take Feit to trial because of weak would-be witnesses.

Dale Tacheny was a former monk that claimed Feit had confessed to murdering and raping Irene Garza. Confessions are not to be revealed. The monk did not have all the pertinent facts and may have been fed information from a Texas Ranger.

Father Joseph O'Brien was Sacred Heart'sinssistant pastor. He told an investigator in 2002 Feit confessed to him. O'Brien was deemed unreliable because he had dementia.

Too many questions remain. Who was Irene Garza's Anglo boyfriend? Why didn't her uncle go to the FBI? Her uncle was an Hidalgo County investigator back in 1960. He and other police officers were allegedly instructed to turn in all notes relating to the case. A stop sign on the matter. Why didn't he risk his job in seeking justice for his neice?
