BOSTON (WHDH) - A New Hampshire man accused of a 1987 Roxbury murder appeared in court Thursday.

James Paige, 50, was charged with sexually assaulting and murdering a 19-year old woman nearly 30 years ago.

The murder went unsolved until police were able to test DNA from the crime scene and arrest Paige last month.

He is being held without bail.
