Kevin Crozier is a person of interest in the disappearance of 23-year-old Sabrina Hatheway who has been missing for nearly three months. However, Crozier and Hatheway's mother, Brenda Hatheway, believe there are other people responsible for Sabrina's disappearance.
Hatheway was last seen on December 20. According to the U.S. Department of Justice National Missing and Unidentified Persons System, Sabrina "was last seen with her ex-boyfriend whose house burned down January 1, 2015 and deemed arson."
Crozier, Hatheway's ex-boyfriend, was interviewed at length by GoLocal Worcester in February. He vehemently denied any involvement in Hatheway's disappearance.
In a Facebook message exchange sent to GoLocal Worcester between Crozier and Brenda Hatheway on January 21, Brenda Hatheway tells Crozier that she thinks Sabrina was the one responsible for trying to burn down Crozier's house. According to the messages, Brenda Hatheway believes that Sabrina's aunt and her aunt's boyfriend are hiding Sabrina and were involved in attempting to burn down Crozier's home.
The aunt that Hatheway considers responsible is a familly friend that Sabrina considers her "aunt."
In the conversation, Brenda Hatheway suggests that Sabrina's aunt and her boyfriend packed Sabrina's clothes and belongings from Crozier's home, and used a gas can from Crozier's shed to ignite the fire at Crozier's home.
Brenda Hatheway: "Kevin, I think Sabrina did that to your house and she is hiding at (Aunt's) house. I've been thinking the night the Fire Department came they (Aunt and Aunts boyfriend) showed before then and he trying to see if Sabrina was a suspect so he could tell (Aunt) to get her to hide."
Kevin Crozier: "I don't know what is going on, but I believe they know something and aren't saying anything. Whether it be who she was with, where shes been,or where she is, they're not saying and they're trying to put the focus on me so they aren't questioned."
Brenda Hatheway: "I agree. The police never questioned them."

According to the conversation, the Aunt and her boyfriend took "three plastic things with draws and a little one full of makeup and hair pieces, a bag with five to six pairs of shoes and a couple other bags with stuff in them."
According to Worcester County Court Records, two weeks after Crozier's home caught on fire, the Worcester Police were at Crozier's home to gather evidence of arson.
In a conversation between Crozier and Brenda Hathaway on January 22, Hatheway asked Crozier if he had gas cans in his basement. Crozier responded, "I had gas cans in my shed, but they were empty. There was one with about an inch or half-inch left in it just for the leaf blower."
Crozier then goes on to tell Hatheway that one of the gas cans was missing. "I had a can with a nozzle on it, but none of the cans in the shed had a nozzle on it when the fire investigator had me look."
Hatheway suggested to Crozier that they go to the aunt's house to see if there was a gas can in the garage and to ask the neighbors to see if they've noticed anything. "If you recognize them, then we can get the cops involved," Hatheway told Crozier. "I think they did that house."
Crozier told GoLocal that he was with Hatheway on December 20 at a party and then she stayed at his house. On December 21, he said he woke up there and Hatheway was missing.

Date of Incident: 7/11/1979
Type of Incident: Unsolved Homicide
Synopsis: 52 year old male was murdered on 7-11-79 while working at his liquor store at 82 Millbury Street by three unknown suspects. The perpetrators were not caught and the case went unsolved. In 2003 while reviewing the evidence in this case, Lieutenant David Grady located latent prints, which were developed from a carton of cigarettes that were dropped by the killer during the shooting. These latent prints were not mentioned in the written narratives.
In 1979, neither the WPD nor Massachusetts had an AFIS computer. One of these latent prints was searched in the State AFIS computer by Grady, and after 24 years, a suspect was identified. Further investigation determined that the suspect himself had been murdered in Puerto Rico in the 1990s.
