(WBBH/NBC News) – Detectives in Punta Gorda, Florida say they’ve cracked a 30-year-old homicide case has using DNA evidence. Members of the Charlotte County Cold Case Unit held a press conference Monday about the murder of Sharon Gill, a woman who was killed in her home on March 21, 1990. Roland “Rollie” Thomas Davis, 68, has been linked to the murder after detectives confirmed DNA evidence connected him to the crime. Davis is currently on death row in Ohio for the stabbing death of an 86-year-old woman.
