For nearly an hour, Allegheny County homicide detectives pleaded with Douglas Berry to tell them where the body was.
It had been 25 days since 67-year-old Elizabeth “Betsy” Wiesenfeld had gone missing, and weeks of investigation had pointed the detectives directly at Berry, a handyman who had worked for her.
Video from Wiesenfeld’s Whitehall neighborhood showed Berry’s distinctive pickup truck in her driveway on the morning she went missing, the investigators told him.
They found her debit card albeit burned at Berry’s house in Liberty.

A Port Authority bus driver who struck a Pitt student last year in Oakland pleaded guilty Monday to involuntary manslaughter.
Shavonne James, 34, will serve three years probation. She also pleaded guilty to one count of recklessly endangering another person.
According to Deputy District Attorney Stephie Ramaley, James was driving Bus No. 6346 from the South Side to the Hill District at 12:09 p.m., when she stopped as she turned right onto DeSoto Street from Fifth Avenue to pick up a person who was running for the bus.
