PORTLAND OR. POLICE may be ready to close the books on their oldest unsolved slaying. For almost 48 years, the vicious slaying of Mary Frances Reid, 22, has got unsolved--until now.
Reid was found murdered by her little sister on April 8, 1963. Two witnesses told cops at the time that a man named Johnny Lawrence had been in a relationship with Reid. They said he was the killer but now cops don't know if he's alive or dead.
