Sharyn Alfonsi Unearths Groundbreaking New Details in Cold Case Murder of Prominent Boston Attorney
BOSTON — In an exclusive report aired Sunday, CBS News correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi presented previously unseen case notes and witness testimony that cast significant doubt on the initial investigation into the 1998 murder of prominent Boston attorney David Marsh. The new evidence, gathered from sealed court records and private investigator logs, suggests the prime suspect, a former client, may have been deliberately shielded by local law enforcement due to familial connections to the district attorney’s office. Alfonsi’s investigation reveals a timeline of events that contradicts the official narrative, including an alibi for the suspect that was never verified and the disappearance of a key piece of physical evidence from the crime scene. The Boston Police Department has not issued a formal response to the report as of this broadcast.
