Holly Davidson, a 24-year-old white woman from Boston, was reported slain on June 12, 1979.

Renewed attention came after a former Suffolk County prosecutor wrote about Leonard Lenny Paradiso; in September 2008 Boston-area prosecutors reopened three unsolved murders they believed shared notable commonalities: Melodie Stankiewicz, Kathy Williams, and Holly Davidson. Officials said there were too many similarities between the cases to ignore, prompting a formal re-examination of evidence and timelines in Davidson’s file.

Paradiso drew investigative scrutiny because of his profile in that work, though his separate 1984 conviction involved a different victim and incident. As of the reopening, Davidson’s case had produced neither an arrest nor an indictment and remains unsolved. Does anyone have memories or information about Holly Davidson or the Boston area in 1979 that could help this cold case?
