The New Bedford Highway Killer is an unidentified serial killer responsible for the deaths of nine women and the disappearances of two additional women in New Bedford, Massachusetts, between July 1988 and June 1989. All of the killer's victims were known prostitutes or substance abusers. ==Murders== Debra Medeiros, 30 years old, was last seen by her boyfriend on May 27, 1988. On July 2, her partially clothed skeleton was discovered by a motorist who stopped to urinate near a Mass Rte 140 exit ramp. She would not be positively identified however, until February of the following year. Likewise, the remains of Nancy Paiva, 36, were discovered on July 30, 1988 near an I-195 exit ramp, and she would also not be identified until December of that year. Paiva had gone missing on July 11, 1988. On the same day, 34-year-old Deborah DeMello disappeared and her remains were not found until November 8, close to where Pavia had been dumped. On November 11, a road crew working along I-195 stumbled upon the remains of 25-year-old Dawn Mendes, who had been missing for a week. On December 1, 1988, an extensive roadway search led to the discovery of the skeletal remains of Deborah McConnell, also 25, dumped off of Rte 140. McConnell had been missing since May. Not far from where DeMello and Paiva had been found, the body of 28-year-old Rochelle Clifford Dopierala, missing since April, was found by hunters in a rock quarry, on December 10, 1988. On March 28, 1989, the body of Robin Rhodes was found off southbound Mass Rte 140, directly across the highway from where Medeiros had been found the previous July. Rhodes, 28, was last seen in April 1988. Mary Rose Santos, a 26-year-old woman, was last seen on July 16, 1988. On March 20, 1989, her remains were found off Route 88. On April 24, 1989, the remains of Sandy Botelho, missing since the previous August, were found along I-I95. Botelho was 24 and a mother of 2 boys when she vanished. In addition to the victims whose bodies were found, 19-year-old Christine Monteiro and 34-year-old Marilyn Roberts both went missing in May and June, respectively, of 1988. Neither woman has been seen since. Their lifestyles, and the fact that both women went missing from the same general area as the other victims, suggest a link to the above homicides. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Bedford Highway Killer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
