Sarah Pryor: 1985
Episode description
Who Killed Sarah Pryor?
I want to thank a listener for suggesting this story.
I have done episodes on the case of Molly Bish and Holly Pirrainen, and the listener suggested I look into the case of Sarah Pryor.
Another case connected loosely to the Pryor case is that of 16-year-old Cathy Malcolmson.
Cathy was working at the IGA supermarket when she was abducted on her way home from work.
The listener, who is from the Massachusetts area where these abductions took place, said there had been some talk that Sarah’s case may also be connected to Molly and Holly’s cases.
I decided to look into the Pryor mystery and was surprised by what I found.
One of the similarities I began to see was the area's geography and how close these incidents took place to one another.
Sarah was taken an hour from where Holly went missing, but all three of these cases occurred just off the Massachusetts Turnpike.
It may be a stretch to think these cases could be connected, but it doesn’t mean the idea should be discounted.
Some books and documentaries talk about how the construction of the interstate enabled a new type of killer.
