SAN DIEGO (AP) — A prosecutor says convicted sex offender John Albert Gardner led authorities to the body of missing teenager Amber Dubois.
San Diego County District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis said Friday Gardner agreed to lead authorities to the body on the condition that they could not use that information against him in court.
Dumanis says it was a difficult decision, but prosecutors had no other evidence or DNA to link him to the death of Dubois.
Gardner pleaded guilty Friday to the murders of the 14-year-old Dubois and 17-year-old Chelsea King.
