Dorthy Moxley, known for her relentless pursuit of justice for her daughter Martha’s murder, has passed away at the age of 92. Martha was killed in 1975, leading Moxley to become a prominent figure in Connecticut as she fought for her daughter’s killer to be brought to justice. In 2002, Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel was convicted of Martha’s murder after decades of waiting for an arrest. Despite Skakel being released from prison in 2013, Moxley maintained her belief in his guilt, attributing his freedom to his family’s wealth and influence. State prosecutors chose not to re-try Skakel in 2020 due to the passing of key witnesses, leaving Moxley feeling that justice had not been served. Her unwavering dedication to seeking justice for her daughter’s murder remained steadfast throughout the years, earning her respect and admiration. Moxley’s legacy will be remembered as a beacon of strength and determination in the face of tragedy.
