The pilot episode for Cold Case was based on the Martha Moxley case from 1975. It was a famous murder case because it involved the Kennedy family. Click on the link below to learn more about this famous Cold Case that wasn't solved until 27 years later. Fifteen year old Martha Moxley was murdered with a golf club on Halloween night.

I don't really know anything about the Martha Moxley case (kinda sad really, cuz I remember thinking while watching Look Again first time around that "the case was kinda farfetched"--just goes to show how often real life can be even stranger and more terrible than fiction), but I've just finished watching a local case in my country uncannily similar to it. 1985, an upper-class girl was beaten to death with a blunt object (rock, probably) by (supposedly) her rich business man boyfriend. Hasn't been solved to this day.

What I don't understand is why there has never been any DNA evidence revealed about this case. Surely there must be something on the golf club.

Not so much a cover-up as it was the fact this was a Kennedy family member. The kid was untouchable for a long time.

I remember watching the pilot and thinking how much it resembles the Moxley case. Did anybody happen to watch the Martha Moxley movie? So sad.

A&E had documentary on the case today in the afternoon sometime. I caught a few minutes of it. The info dated the documentary being made in 1999 so it must not have been solved at that point. I believe the killer was brought to justice in 2002.
