Clearwater reopens cold case murder
Clarence Bolden killed 13 years ago, case unsolved

For Andrea Bolden, she's hoping 13 is the charm that ends more than a decade of wondering who killed her husband and why.

It was 13 years ago that 37-year old Clarence Bolden, playing cards at a friend's house, was shot to death by two home invaders.

Despite years of appealing to the public for help solving the crime, the family is left without answers. The murderers remain unknown and possibly still at large.

"I'm not going to give up," Andrea Bolden said. "I'm pleading and begging. Please come forward. You can do at least one thing right."

"I'm looking for justice for my husband. I know someone knows what happened in this little local area," Andrea Bolden tells ABC Action News.

Clearwater Police concur, and point out that cold cases are often solved simply by someone coming forward with new information.
It's a website on which anyone can look through hundreds of unsolved murder cases — some dating back 60 years!

It could be especially useful for detectives if they come across information from another area, or for a witness if they've moved out of the area.

Each entry in the database includes a phone number that tipsters can call.
 
How sad. I wonder if the perps knew there would be a poker game in advance.

Clearwater family hopes $25K reward will unmask gunmen in 20-year cold case (fox13news.com)
''CLEARWATER, Fla. - Detectives in Clearwater are pleading for tips to help them solve a 20-year-old cold case.

Clarence Bolden was 37 when he was murdered on February 7, 2002, but with little physical evidence, the family has been left without answers for two decades. The Clearwater Police Department hopes the anniversary will help generate news leads.''
''A $25,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest.''
 
$25,000 is a nice chunk of change. It’s been 20 years. Surely someone needs money in this economy.
