Cold Case Spotlight

Cold Case Homicide Investigation Ends

On Sunday, March 23, 1980, 18-year-old Carol Ann Barrett was visiting Daytona Beach while on Spring Break from Zanesville, Ohio with a group of high school friends. At approximately 2:00 a.m., Carol was abducted by an unknown assailant from the Treasure Island Motel, in Daytona Beach Shores. After interviewing Carol’s friends that had been in the room at the time of the kidnapping, a police sketch of the suspect was completed.

On Monday, March 24, 1980, Carol’s lifeless body was discovered by a passerby in a ditch line along I-95 near Pecan Park Road in Jacksonville, Florida. Following an autopsy, Carol’s death was ruled a Homicide. Tragically, the case went “cold” after years of work by detectives with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office along with the original jurisdiction.

In August of 2017, Carol’s case was revisited and ultimately re-opened by members of the JSO’s Cold Case Unit after reviewing all available evidence.

In 2020, a person of interest that had been formulated, Billy Mansfield, Jr. (White Male, 65), was ultimately identified as the suspect in Carol Barrett’s murder. Mansfield would have been 24 at the time of Carol’s Murder.

In September of 2022, after multiple interviews spanning two years, Billy Mansfield advised that he was in fact the suspect in the police sketch completed following the abduction. He went on to confess to the abduction from the Daytona Beach Shores hotel, as well as to her murder shortly thereafter.

Throughout the course of the follow-up investigation, the State Attorney's Office in the 4th Judicial Circuit was consulted with. Following the more than quarter-century investigation into Carol’s murder, it has been determined the SAO would not seek prosecution as Billy Mansfield will remain in prison in California on one life sentence for Murder, as well as four concurrent life sentences in Florida for Murder in separate cases.

Billy Mansfield continues to cooperate with detectives in other jurisdictions regarding additional Cold Cases.

Status Unsolved
Incident Location 10 Gary Road
Northwood, New Hampshire, 03261
Rockingham County
L.E.A New Hampshire Department of Justice Cold Case Unit, Concord, New Hampshire

Prior to her death, Dominique Davis lived with her mother, Tina Prescott, her five-year-old sister, and David McNeal, who was the brother of Ms. Prescott's fiance at 10 Gary Road in Northwood, NH. On February 19, 2004 at approximately 5:30 p.m., EMTs received a 911 call for an injured child at that address. When the EMTs arrived, they discovered Dominique lying on the ground and unresponsive. Dominique was transported initially to Concord Hospital and then to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center where she died two days later. An autopsy revealed that Dominique died as a result of blunt impact injury to the head. The circumstances surrounding Dominique's death suggest that the trauma may have been the result of nonaccidental, inflicted, abusive head injury.
