Arrest Made In 30 Year Old Providence Murder Case

Police have made an arrest in connection with a 1999 murder.

The case involved the strangulation death of 41-year-old Kathleen O'Dowd Boleman, who was found behind Roger Williams Middle School in March of that year.

A suspect at the time was Kevin Williams, but police did not have enough evidence to charge him with the killing.

Detectives recently uncovered new evidence and interviewed witnesses.

Last week, a grand jury indicted Williams, now 53, on a murder charge.

He is being held without bail and is due back in court on April 24th.
