He says justice has been served but the nightmare is far from over. There will always be grief. Maureen says she is relieved Garcia Torres will not be on the streets.

I just want to be able to say in court that that even this verdict was just it will not take away the pain and suffering that we still continue to experience every day the rest of our lives. Reporter the sentencing phase will begin on may 16th. The same jurors convicted Garcia Torres will be asked to decide whether he spends the rest of his life in prison or receives the death penalty. Coming up at 6 00, well hear the emotional reaction from sierra lamars older sister. Reporting live in san jose, marianne favro, nbc bay area news. Marianne thank you. It has been emotional for five years for the family and thousands of volunteers who search for her every weekend. Sierra disappeared on her way to high school in morgan hill march 16th of 2012. It wasnt until a few months later, may 21st that antolin Garcia Torres was arrested. After many legal delays two years later Garcia Torres would enter the plea of not guilty. And another two years before the trial really ramped up. The court started looking for jurors last october. The trial finally began in january and of course the case went to the jury this past thursday. Youre looking here at one of the many searches for sierra. For years dedicated volunteers like we mentioned skowered the south bay ploog for any sign of her many of the same volunteers wafrpd the jury tlifr the verdict. Nbc bay area Michelle Roberts joins from us the courthouse with more. Michelle. Reporter well those search is t over yet. They will continue to search for sierras body now theyre hoping that torres will finally answer questions about where she may be. You knew when she was a room because the energy would change, very happy girl. This young lady says she was lucky to call sierra a friend. She was relieved garcia was found guilty but until the body is found she will pray for answers from the man who killed her best friend. Im hoping this this verdict gives idea of maybe i should say something, maybe this isnt the end for me and maybe i can least be a good person. Moments after the verdict was read there was a flood of emotions outside the courthouse. We were holdingened hands inside there. You know god answered the questions and answered our wishes and our prayers. Doug is a volunteer who spent hundreds of days searching for sierra as brd. Seems like yesterday our first search and now were here with justice and it has been served. But a verdict doesnt mean he will stop searching. He can live forever in the pit or he could tell us where she is at. And let us because the family deserves this. They need to to know where the baby girl is. A girl who will continue to inspire best friends. It is hard to see my life without it it would be better if she were here. Reporter well volunteers say they will continue the search for syria this coming saturday. Reporting live in san jose, Michelle Roberts, nb bay area news. Thanks michelle. To this day the body has not been found. Its possible the defense attorney could make a deal where garsway torres escapes the death fenlt in exchange for telling police where her body is. But as our legal analyst pointed out a lot would have to happen first. It is possible before anything like that occurred that would be something that would be consulted with sierras family, both sides would need to discuss it. And i think its unlikely. But it is theoretically possible. A deal like that has happened before in april 2008, hans ricer was convicted of murdering his wife in the Oakland Hills afterward he took a plea deal and avoiding the death sentence in exchange for dealing investigators that his wife eyes body was in a shallow grave near their home. Strong reaction to the verdict in morgan hills hundreds of people in the city joined the efforts to find her. Passed out fliers over the years and supported the family when whether they knew them family or not. Her heart is broken never get over it. That was their daughter im going to start crying im sorry. There will another search for sierra this weekend. Coming up at 6 00 well hear more from the Morgan Hill Community and the refusal to forget the 15yearold. Of course well continue to follow the case.
