More details about the crime and the charges
Gaeta is being charged as an adult given the severity of the crimes.
Gaeta is facing murder and rape charges with "aggravating" circumstances - trying to conceal a crime, sexual motivation and vulnerable victim.
Jenise Wright's body was found Thursday, covered by a wood pallet and almost fully submerged in a muddy bog. It appeared that her body was moved between a half-hour and three hours after she died, according to the probable-cause statement.
Detectives interviewed the teen Saturday, during which time he nodded yes when the detective asked whether he was the only one involved, according to court documents. Authorities then served a search warrant on his home and found evidence, including a blood- and mud-covered shirt and a bloody towel in Gaeta's bedroom.

------------------------------------------------
LE's got an airtight case against this teen -- DNA match, other physical evidence, and an apparent confession.
Unless Gaeta puts up and pulls off an insanity defense or he's offered some type of deal for a guilty plea up front, I think he's looking at life. I hope so anyway.
