Yes, that's all I can see. I also checked the regular San Mateo court site and there's nothing new there either. I will keep checking for updates.

"John Arthur Getreu, 78, formally admitted Tuesday to killing 21-year-old Leslie Marie Perlov on Feb. 13, 1973. He entered the first-degree murder plea in Santa Clara County Superior Court via video conference; he is in state prison custody in Stockton, and his attorney said several medical conditions made it impossible to safely bring him to court.
[...]
Getreu is scheduled for sentencing April 26 and again faces a lifetime prison sentence. Technically, he would be eligible for parole after about seven years because his crimes are subject to 1973 sentencing guidelines."

Keeping eyes open for unsolved SAs and murders in Germany..

''Alleged serial killer John Arthur Getreu was convicted of killing and raping a 15-year-old girl in Germany in 1964, a decade before the strangled bodies of two young women he is now accused of killing were found on Stanford University land, the brother of the murdered teenager testified on Tuesday.

Evan David Williams, a pastor, said that Getreu killed his sister on June 9, 1963, when his family and Getreu's parents were stationed at the U.S. Army base in Bad Kreuznach, Germany. His sister, Margaret Williams, was found on a field beaten about the face, strangled and raped.

Williams said his father, who was an army chaplain at the time, told him that Getreu had been arrested for the crime.''

''Getreu's first wife, Susan Cammarota, testified that he told her before they were married that he had killed a girl in Germany. She also said he was convicted of statutory rape after initially being charged with raping a teenage girl who was a member of his Explorer Scout troop in 1975. (The victim testified in court last week.) He served his jail sentence on weekends, she said.''
