1974 - Swampscott, Massachusetts.\n\nIn 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\u2019s youth.\n\nHenry was a good kid from a good family, who, to this day, still can\u2019t understand why somebody would have done this.\xa0\n\nBut 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.\n\nIf you have any information on the murder of\xa0 Henry Bedard Jr., please contact the Swampscott Police at (781) 595-1111.\n\nEpisode sources and photos: https://www.murdershetold.com/episodes/henry-bedard\n\nSupport the show: https://www.murdershetold.com/support\n\n\n\nInstagram: @murdershetoldpodcast\n\n\n\nTikTok: @murdershetold\n\n\n\nFacebook: /mstpodcast\n\n\n\nWebsite: murdershetold.com\n\n\n-----\nSponsors:\n\nOneSkin: Get 15% off your order at\xa0https://www.oneskin.co with the code SHETOLD\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
