Death row inmate may have ties to other SWFL cold cases  

Cold case investigators are taking a closer look at the life of Roland Davis, Sr., who is currently on death row for the murder of an Ohio woman – he’s also the man accused of killing Sharon Gill in Charlotte County.

Cold Case Detective Kurt Mehl spoke with SWFL Crime Stoppers Trish Routte about Roland Thomas Davis Sr. and his ties to Fort Myers. We are urging anyone with information to come forward.

If you knew, saw, or even heard of Roland “Rollie” Thomas Davis Sr., contact Crime Stoppers or the Charlotte County Sheriffs Office. He was known to hang out at the Mayfair Lounge in North Fort Myers.

We are looking into any connections Davis may have to unsolved homicides or missing women from the 1980s and 90s. He used to hang out at the now closed Mayfair Lounge in North Fort Myers and has a history of violence.
