Robin Dawn Stavinsky, 19, was abducted while hitchhiking in Norwich, Connecticut, in November 1983. Her body was found about a week after she was last seen in a wooded area on the grounds of the Norwich State Hospital. The official cause of death was strangulation and she had been sexually assaulted.

Investigators linked her killing to other disappearances and deaths of young women in the area, a pattern that eventually led to the arrest of Michael Bruce Ross, known as the Roadside Strangler. Ross confessed to abducting, raping, and strangling Robin and was later convicted for her murder among others.

Are there details about Robin’s last day or about witnesses in Norwich in 1983 that anyone can share?
