(Lauren Lee Malloy) Rhode Island authorities found 30-year-old Lori Lee Malloy dead, naked and bruised in her Providence apartment exactly 30 years ago Tuesday.Her daughter, 31-year-old Lauren Lee Malloy, is expecting more answers in her mother's case "any day now" as officials reexamine Lori's cause of death after the original medical examiner assigned to her case botched it and concluded that she died naturally."Any day now, we should have the results from her forensic exam," Lauren, who founded a local cold case organization called Unsolved R.I., told Fox News Digital. "[T]hey still had the original rape kit that was done on the original histological specimen.
Everything they took from her in 1993 … that's all able to be retested. And then they exhumed her remains. They're able to retest all of that as well.
So, I'm just hoping that when we hear the new cause and manner of death, that … the police are able to move forward with their investigation."She added that the "East Providence Police Department (EPPD) is ready to act accordingly."CALIFORNIA COLD CASE CRACKED WITH DNA FROM ‘UNPROVABLE’ RAPE CASE: PROSECUTORSOrange County deputies arrested Kenneth Robert Stough Jr., who is accused of murdering Terrence Paquette, a convenience store manager, back in 1996.
