Rockland Prepares for Release of Second Killer of Pearl River Teen, Urge Parole Board to Reconsider

July 30, 2021 by Jeff Lewis

The second of two killers of a Pearl River teen could be walking the streets again soon, possibly here in the county. That is unless the parole board decides to reverse their decision earlier this month to free 60 year-old Robert McCain, convicted in the 1980 murder and sexual assault of Paula Bohovesky as she walked home from the Pearl River library. Rockland state senator Elijah Reichlin-Melnick sponsored legislation that would extend 2004’s “Joan’s Law,” which bans parole for those convicted of killing and sexually assaulting a child under the age of 14, “Paula’s Law” would raise that age to 18…

McCain could be released as early as next week, but Rockland Assemblyman Mike Lawler says he hasn’t heard what, if any, restrictions might be placed on him…

Rockland Assemblyman Ken Zebrowski says in this case it’s tough to understand the parole board’s decision…

Local officials have demanded McCain not be permitted to come to Rockland County once he is released, but where the parole board decides to put him is not known at this time.
