The Sad Story of Martha Moxley

Among Aunt Nancy's papers were newspaper clippings of the awful murder of 15-year-old Martha Moxley in Greenwich, Connecticut, on October 30, 1975. Martha Moxley was the great-granddaughter of Uncle Andrew and Aunt Inga, and the granddaughter of their daughter, Emma. The case was still unsolved at the beginning of 1998.



On January 19, 2000, a warrant for arrest was issued for Michael Skakel, nephew of Ethel Skakel-Kennedy, and a next-door-neighbor of the Moxley's at the time of the murder.  He was finally sentenced to 20 years to life in prison in 2002.
