The Tragic Murder of Henry Bedard

1974 - Swampscott, Massachusetts. In the shadows of the early-December afternoon, somebody with a baseball bat beat the life out of 15-year-old Henry Bedard Jr. He had been on his way home to wrap a Christmas gift, and was found the following day in a well-travelled patch of woods that was popular amongst the town’s youth. Henry was a good kid from a good family, who, to this day, still can’t understand why somebody would have done this.  But police are still hopeful the right person will recognize the markings on the bat and come forward with the tip they need to crack this case, no matter how much time has passed. If you have any information on the murder of Henry Bedard Jr., please contact the Swampscott Police at (781) 595-1111.
