Slim, boyishly handsome Peter Makarewicz, 16, of Norwood, begins a life sentence in state prison today for the sex strangling of his school chum and neighbor, Geraldine Annese, 15.
Joseph Annese, 63, father of the slain girl, who lived only a block from the Makarewicz home, commented grimly:
“The verdict was okay. But I would feel better if he got death like my daughter.”
