MA MA - Gayla Tyler, 21, Jamaica Plain, 7 April 1985

[mysteriew]

Despite a mother's loving care, Catherine Tyler has been unable to stop the Ralph Lauren perfume that was her daughter's signature scent from fading away during the 20 years since her murder.

And King, who was freed on $100,000 bail after pleading innocent to the homicide, was entrusted by Roxbury's Unitarian Universalist Urban Ministry to counsel youth about the evils of violence. He could not be reached for comment.

I'm interested in if this man has offended again since his aquittal in Gayla's murder. He had a history of prison time IIRC.
