The Massachusetts State Police Unresolved Case Unit states that 42 years ago, on February 24, 1983, Barry and Dena Pinto were shot and killed inside their home located on Cherry Street in Plymouth. Their 13-month-old son was at the home during the shooting but was found unharmed by a brother-in-law coming to help with renovations on the house, according to Wicked Local. An autopsy revealed that the couple died between 8:00 and 9:00 p.m.
Wicked Local states that their daughter, Amy Strobis, was only seven at the time and living with her mother on the West Coast. Strobis, recalls that her father and stepmother had just moved to the house on Cherry Street Court in the winter of 1983.
'The Pinto family deserves answers; it has been too long,' said the Massachusetts State Police Unresolved Case Unit.
