The unsolved case of Roberta Johnson - a mother beaten to death in her ninth month of pregnancy and buried in a sandy Ocala grave more than a decade ago - got a fresh look recently in Jacksonville, where the investigation is now focused.
When she died, detectives believe, Johnson was trying to shake down a married lover who has never been charged in the case.
Detective Donald Buie of the Marion County Sheriff's Office said Johnson was beaten on the back of the head before she was buried in a 4-foot-deep grave that was covered with the hood from an old Chevrolet.
In late June, Buie brought the case to a week-long class on cold case techniques at a police training institute on the University of North Florida campus.
