According to his friend, Richard Brunt, he was last seen at DQ Stables after the pair returned from a camping trip in July of 1984. Days later, Chris's car was found abandoned at a nearby mall. Chris was nowhere to be found. But Richard Brunt was hiding a violent past. Years earlier, he had been convicted of murdering his partner in Florida before relocating to New Hampshire, where he attempted to build a new life. As Chris's disappearance deepened, attention turned to the last person known to have seen him, and investigators soon began to question whether the same dangerous patterns that marked Richard Brunt’s past had followed him north.

Chelmsford, Massachusetts. 23-year-old Deborah Lynne Bates, known as Debbie, was trying to start over after leaving her abusive ex, George, with whom she shared a child. She wasn't perfect, but she was determined to build a better life. One February night in 1993, seven months pregnant, Debbie stepped out of her apartment for a pack of cigarettes and vanished. She never came home. Police treated her disappearance as routine, but her family knew she would never abandon her young son. The case lay practically dormant until 2004, when a gruesome discovery that was meant to stay buried turned up on the side of the hideaway—raising questions no one was ready to answer.

When he went inside, he found Judy dead in her upstairs bedroom. From the beginning, police had suspects. The case moved quickly. An arrest felt imminent. But then, a single scientific conclusion shifted the trajectory of the investigation. What should have been a straight path to justice became a decades-long detour.

]]> 3859 Justice for Nancy Williams https://murdershetold.com/episodes/nancy-williams 1981 - Winchendon, Massachusetts. On January 30, 1981, 19-year-old Nancy Williams picked up a last-minute shift at the Cumberland Farms in Winchendon, Massachusetts. Just two hours before closing, an unknown assailant entered the store, robbed it, and brutally stabbed Nancy, leaving her for dead behind the counter. The crime stunned locals, who struggled to believe something so violent could happen in their quiet town. Even more unsettling was the thought that the person responsible may have simply blended back into the community—never identified, never held accountable. Now, 45 years later, Nancy’s case is being revived in the hope that renewed attention, advances in forensic technology, and fresh tips can finally bring justice for Nancy.

But 26-year-old Scott Sampson—a father of two young boys—was already dead, and had been for hours, with no one calling for help. 35 years have passed, yet Scott’s sister remains anchored to the same questions that rose the moment his death was discovered. Imperfect but deeply loved, Scott was a devoted father, friend, brother, and son. And his mother’s dying wish remained heartbreakingly simple: to know who was responsible, and to know why. If you have information on the murder of Scott Sampson, you can call the Portland Police anonymous crime tip line at 207-874-8584. You may also text keyword “PPDME” and a message to 847411 (TIP411).

When the bouncer at Take Five Music Hall in Concord, NH saw 21-year-old David Braley darting into the woods after being kicked out, he thought little of it and moved on. But that fleeting glimpse would turn out to be the last time anyone saw David alive. Months of frantic searching ended on a cool spring day in 1990, when a body appeared along the Merrimack River.

]]> 2539 Major Updates in the Murder of Henry Bedard Jr. 1974 - Swampscott, Massachusetts. In the shadows of the early-December afternoon, somebody with a baseball bat beat the life out of 15-year-old Henry Bedard Jr. He had been on his way home to wrap a Christmas gift, and was found the following day in a well-travelled patch of woods that was popular amongst the town’s youth. Henry was a good kid from a good family, who, to this day, still can’t understand why somebody would have done this.  But police are still hopeful the right person will recognize the markings on the bat and come forward with the tip they need to crack this case, no matter how much time has passed.

On a cool April day in 1996, 32-year-old Michael Madore disappeared without a trace. He left behind everything—his possessions, his beloved dogs, and a letter claiming he was bound for Alaska to live out a childhood dream of becoming a “mountain man” like Grizzly Adams. But that dream was only ever a fantasy. The circumstances Mike left behind painted a confusing picture, and the details didn’t seem to line up. Nearly 30 years have passed, and Mike has never been  heard from again.

]]> 3419 The Disappearance of Doreen Marfeo Revisited 1990 - Johnston, Rhode Island. In July of 1999, 50-year-old Stephen Marfeo took action on a violent plan: he shot and killed his ex-girlfriend, Laura Vincent, and attempted to kill her boyfriend, Sal Puleo, before ultimately taking his own life.  For police, this was an open and shut case fulled by jealousy and domestic violence. However, they held out hope that this tragedy would help them unravel the mystery of what happened to Stephen’s wife, 34-year-old Doreen Ann Marfeo, who vanished without a trace from their Johnston, RI home in March of 1990. Stephen told police that Doreen’s behavior in the months leading up to her disappearance had taken a bizarre uncharacteristic turn. She abruptly quit her job, and was having late night panic attacks over something she couldn’t bring herself to tell her husband. Several months later, police began receiving anonymous letters in the mail... letters that claimed to have intimate knowledge about Doreen, and detailed what allegedly happened to her the day she disappeared… This episode was originally published in September 2023.

]]> 3272 The Unsolved Murder of Brian Allen https://murdershetold.com/episodes/brian-allen 2005. Orland, Maine. On the morning of July 15, 2005, 46-year-old Brian Allen was found shot to death in a bed at a home where he had been staying in Orland—a small blueberry town on the coast of Maine, where he worked. His death was ruled a homicide. Brian’s murder received little media coverage and quietly slipped onto Maine’s list of unsolved homicides. Now, two decades later, Brian’s sister Trista is breaking her silence. For the first time, she shares memories of her brother, why she had to step away from the fight for justice, and the deep determination that’s pushing her to seek out the truth—no matter the cost.

In the early morning hours of July 5, 2000, while working the Fourth of July graveyard shift as a security guard at Venture Corp in Seabrook, New Hampshire, Curtis Pishon vanished without a trace. Just after midnight, his car had mysteriously gone up in flames. Though the fire was later ruled arson, no one knows who set it—or why. That same night, Curtis disappeared. Both the Pishon family and investigators suspect foul play, and despite naming a person of interest, Curtis Pishon’s disappearance remains a mystery 25 years later.  This episode is dedicated to the memory of Curtis’s father, Nicholas E. Pishon, who passed away since our original interview was recorded.

]]> 2886 The Unsolved Murder of Dorothy Milliken, Part Two 1976 - Lewiston, Maine. In the early hours of a November morning in 1976, Dorothy “Dotty” Milliken left her home  to do some late-night laundry in Lewiston, Maine. She never made it back. A local paperboy found her body just before dawn, outside Beal’s Laundromat. She had been beaten to death in what police called a frenzied attack. Tonia was just seven when her mother was killed—a traumatic loss that reshaped the course of her family’s future. In the years since, she’s worked to understand what happened. Now, a new book revisits the case, pulling together decades of theories, suspects, new interviews, and questions to form a possible picture of that night. But police are still missing a critical piece of the puzzle: the person that knows who killed Dorothy Milliken. If you have any information on the murder of Dorothy Milliken, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South at ⁠(207)624-7076⁠ x9. The family is offering a $10k reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this crime.

Around 11 p.m. on July 19, 1988, a Cranston police officer came across an abandoned car in the breakdown lane of Route 10. The vehicle belonged to the mother of 18-year-old Lauren Morris, a recent graduate of Bristol High, who had been reported missing after borrowing it to run errands. Blood found inside the car suggested something was terribly wrong. Just beyond the guardrail, a short distance down the embankment, the officer discovered Lauren’s body floating in Spectacle Pond, a tire wrapped around her torso. Investigators pursued numerous leads, but none led to a definitive suspect. Despite early momentum, the investigation eventually went cold, leaving behind a trail of questions—and a family still searching for justice. If you have any information about the murder of Lauren Morris from 1988, please call Detective Robert Santagata of the Cranston Police Department at (401) 477-5169 or submit a tip to the Rhode Island AG’s Office Cold Case Unit at (401) 468-2233.

In October 1986, Charles Martin Vosseler abducted his two sons, Billy and CJ, leaving their mother, Ruth, desperate to follow their trail—all while picking up the pieces of a life she now realized had been built on lies. Charlie had taken everything: her possessions, her savings, and now, her sons. But he underestimated Ruth. He’d chosen an indefatigable adversary—one who would stop at nothing to bring her children home. Decades later, Ruth is still fighting. Still hoping. Still believing that somewhere, her boys are out there—having lived full lives, unaware of who they truly are and everything their father stole from them. If you have any information on the location of Charles Martin Vosseler or the abduction of his children, Charles Jason “CJ” Vosseler and William Martin “Billy” Vosseler, please contact your local FBI office or the Boston field office at (857) 386-2000.

On the afternoon of September, 12, 1988, a rail yard worker for B&M Railroad in Lawrence, MA made a horrifying discovery on the tracks: the body of 11-year-old Melissa Ann Tremblay who was missing from Salem, NH.


Investigators quickly realized this was no train accident—that something more sinister happened to the young girl—and her killer tried to cover up his crime by staging the gruesome scene. 


For decades the case was cold… until April of 2022, when a former corrections officer was arrested at his home in Alabama. Marvin “Skip” McClendon, Jr went to trial in December 2023… But did investigators get the right man?

On the morning after Christmas in 1990, a parks employee at Blunt Park in Springfield, MA, made a grim discovery: the body of 17-year-old Shana Renee Price. Initially, police suspected she had been shot, but an autopsy later revealed the brutal truth behind her death. Shana was a young mother to a baby boy, living a vibrant life surrounded by her friends and family. Her case received little public attention until 2022, when Springfield Police and the Hampden County DA released a phenotype composite sketch developed by Parabon Nanolabs. The sketch, created using DNA evidence found on Shana’s body, reignited hope that her tragic murder might finally be solved. However, police still need the public’s help to bring her killer to justice.

On the morning of December 28, 1946, the Brockton, Massachusetts police arrived at a crime scene that would soon captivate the region. The press called it the Christmas Tree Murder-the brutal killing of 35-year-old Rene Cote. Rene had no shortage of enemies. Among them was a so-called friend now sitting in jail, charged with his murder. Yet, investigators felt they were missing key pieces of the story. Rene's wife, Bertha Surprise Cote, whose beauty had captured the attention of the public, kept changing her account of what happened that night. Was she protecting a man she secretly loved from the death penalty? Or was she hiding something far more sinister?

On a chilly November morning, just two days before Thanksgiving in 1975, 25-year-old Ludger Belanger kissed his wife, Linda, goodbye, and ventured into the snowy woods of rural Maine in search of a buck.

On a rainy Saturday evening in April 1982, 18-year-old Lynn Burdick was working alone at the Barefoot Peddlar, a small country store in the Berkshires. By the end of her shift, she had vanished—along with the cash in the register. Known for her reliability, Lynn’s disappearance immediately raised alarms. Less than an hour before she went missing, just over 10 miles away at Williams College, a man attempted to kidnap a student in his car. Investigators couldn't help but question whether the two events were connected.  Though decades have passed without answers, there is renewed hope that someone will finally come forward with the key to bringing Lynn home.

After all, the teenager had a habit of staying out late and skipping school. But when Sonya missed an important appointment, the pit in her stomach began to grow. Despite her daughter’s independence, she always knew where Sonya was. As days turned into weeks, Sonya’s friends held onto the hope that she was somewhere warm, chasing her dream of becoming a model. But deep down, they knew something was wrong. Sonya wouldn’t just vanish without telling someone. Then, in the spring, a badly decomposed body was discovered in Stark Pond. The girl was wearing an arrowhead necklace and a Hampton Beach shirt—just like the ones Sonya Moore was last seen wearing.

Though the state knew Harmony was deceased and strongly suspected that her father, Adam Montgomery, was responsible, there wasn’t enough evidence to press charges.  But the facade was starting to crack as the pressure mounted, and investigators knew his ex-wife, Kayla Montgomery, was the key they needed to solve this case... if they could get her tell them the truth. If you have any information on the location of Harmony Montgomery’s remains, please call the new Manchester Police tip line at (603) 932-8997. If you are struggling with your mental health or with substance use disorder, you aren't alone.

]]> 4274 Anita Piteau: Huntington Beach Jane Doe, Part 2 https://murdershetold.com/episodes/anita-piteau-2 1968 - Huntington Beach, California. On the afternoon of March 14, 1968, a group of boys playing on a vacant lot in Huntington Beach, CA stumbled on a grim discovery: the body of a young woman. It was clear the woman had been murdered, but investigators were unable to determine who she was. Despite exhaustive efforts, the identity of the Huntington Beach Jane Doe would remain a mystery for over 50 years. Meanwhile in Maine, the family of Anita Piteau was still searching for her… and it wouldn’t be until 2020 that they would finally know what happened.  But questions still linger: who was her killer, Johnny Chrisco, and why was Anita in his car?  Huntington Beach Police are seeking information on Johnny Chrisco to try and answer questions about Anita’s death. If you have any information that can help, please contact them at (714) 960-8811.

As a teenager, she’d been committed to the Maine Industrial School for Girls: a reform school that aimed to turn rebellious, troubled, and misfit girls into promising young women.  When she left the school, Anita was far from reformed. If anything, she was more determined than ever to live her life on her own terms. In December of 1967, Anita packed up and went to California in search of adventure.  But a few months later, her family suddenly stopped hearing from her, and nobody could get in touch. Anita was a free spirit, but she’d never just cut off her family like this.  Did something terrible happen to Anita Piteau? Or was she just caught up in her newfound freedom and life in a new city?

When 15-year-old Judith Hand went missing after failing to report to her after-school babysitting job on September 10, 1971, the Farmington Police told her family she’d be back.  Her family wasn’t convinced. They knew something was wrong. Judy was extremely responsible, and wouldn’t just skip out on her job let alone not come home.  Thirteen days later, Judy's body was found buried in a decaying sawdust pile at an abandoned mill.

Sometime in the evening hours of October 31, 2010, somebody shot and killed 54-year-old Roberta Miller (who went by Bobbie) and her dog, Sport, in her home in Gilford, NH. According to her brother, it seemed like a personal attack or something professionally done. Bobbie had recently moved into the home after finalizing her divorce—a bitter battle that spanned over 3 years. She was attending college to earn a business degree, going on dates, and was looking forward to an independent future.  Bobbie’s family is frustrated with the lack of updates and progress, and they’re not afraid to speak out. On the surface, the answer seems clear. But as deeper layers of this case are pulled back, a cascade of questions and mystery are revealed, leaving room for doubt. If you have any information about the murder of Bobbie Miller, please call the NH Cold Case Unit at (603) 271-2663 or email coldcaseunit@dos.nh.gov.

]]> 2730 The Theresa Corley Story, Part One https://www.murdershetold.com/episodes/theresa-corley 1978 - Bellingham, Massachusetts. At the age of 19, Theresa Corley held a promising future. As the first of nine siblings to pursue college—a goal she worked to finance herself—she had aspirations of becoming a pediatrician.  But on the night of December 5th, 1978, Theresa, who was out celebrating with friends at Franklin's Train Stop bar, didn't return home. Her friend’s said they last saw her leaving the bar sometime before midnight on foot following a fight with her boyfriend. Theresa didn’t have a car, and the trek home was miles away.  Three days later, on December 8th, her nude body was discovered halfway down a steep ditch on the side of the highway. She had been strangled. As investigators dug into the mystery of Theresa’s final hours alive, unsettling narratives surrounding a party at a nearby apartment came to light, placing Theresa there after she left the bar. What secrets were being hidden in that apartment? Were they connected to Theresa’s murder? Determined to discover what really happened, Theresa’s sister, Gerri Houde, has embarked on a relentless quest for the truth; and she’s telling her story on Murder, She Told.  This is part one of Theresa Corley’s story.

]]> 3499 Identifying Susan Lund with Laurah Norton https://murdershetold.com 1992 - Clarksville, Tennessee. On the evening of December 24, 1992, 25-year-old Susan Lund reportedly left her home for ingredients to make a pie. The young mother never returned home. About a month later, female remains were located 300 miles away in Ina, Illinois, but investigators couldn't figure out who she was. 30 years later, the woman known only as Ina Jane Doe was finally identified as Susan Minard Lund. Susan's murder remains unsolved. Laura Norton, host of The Fall Line and One Strange Thing podcast, spent more than a year working with and learning from forensic experts across the country as she collaborated with anthropologists, DNA experts, and investigative genetic genealogists to help identify Susan Lund. Her new book, Lay Them to Rest, takes a fascinating deep dive into the dark world of forensic science, and a personal look at the people behind the scenes working to solve decades old mysteries. Today, Laurah joins me on Murder, She Told for a conversation about what it's like working to reconnect the names of the unidentified, how she approaches cold case and Jane Doe research, and what investigators need from you to help find Susan's killer.

]]> 4618 UPDATE: The Trial of Logan Clegg https://murdershetold.com/episodes/steve-and-wendy-reid 2022 - Concord, New Hampshire. On the afternoon of April 18th, 2022, Stephen and Djeswende "Wendy" Reid were shot to death while walking on the Broken Ground Trails near their apartment in Concord, NH.  Steve and Wendy represented the best of humanity. They had recently retired and moved back to Steve’s hometown of Concord to settle down and enjoy a slower pace of life after spending decades doing humanitarian work all over the world. Who would do this to such a beloved couple? In October 2022, police arrested and eventually charged 25-year-old Logan Clegg with their murders. The intricate and complicated police work that tied Logan to the crime scene came just before his flight on a one way ticket out of the country.  One year later, Logan’s trial has concluded. We now have a verdict in the case. This is an update to the episode “Justice for Steve & Wendy Reid: The Capture of Logan Clegg” released on November 8, 2022.

On Wednesday, October, 25th, 2023, an armed gunman entered two locations in Lewiston, Maine—Just-In-Time Recreation bowling alley and Schmengee’s Bar and Grill pool hall—and opened fire.  The shooter, who was identified as Robert Card, was on the run for 48-hours before taking his own life on Friday, October 27th. He killed 18 innocent people, and injured about 13 more. As a born and raised Mainer who creates this show from my home state, my heart is absolutely broken for the community, the families and friends directly impacted, and for this massive tragedy.  I felt compelled to create this short episode to honor the victims. My hope is that you walk away from this knowing something more about each of them as the amazing people they were, and not just as names on a list. These are the stories of Thomas Ryan Conrad, 34, Michael R. Deslauriers Jr. 51, and his best friend, Jason Adam Walker, 51, Tricia C. Asselin, 53, William A.

]]> 2175 Doreen Marfeo is Still Missing https://murdershetold.com/episodes/doreen-marfeo 1990 - Johnston, Rhode Island. In July of 1999, 50-year-old Stephen Marfeo took action on a violent plan: he shot and killed his ex-girlfriend, Laura Vincent, and attempted to kill her boyfriend, Sal Puleo, before ultimately taking his own life.  For police, this was an open and shut case fulled by jealousy and domestic violence. However, they held out hope that this tragedy would help them unravel the mystery of what happened to Stephen’s wife, 34-year-old Doreen Ann Marfeo, who vanished without a trace from their Johnston, RI home in March of 1990.

Documents, funeral instructions, photos and personal items of Sara’s had been organized and laid out on the table for police to find. The only thing they couldn’t find was Sara’s husband, Butch. It didn’t take long for police to realize the person who made the call to 911 was 66-year-old Harold “Butch” Knight. Butch had taken Sara’s vehicle and skipped town, eventually making his way up to a tiny town in rural Maine. By the time they found Sara’s abandoned vehicle, it was too late. They’d lost his trail.  Almost a decade later, police are still searching for Butch. This is the story of Sara Lee Knight, and Harold Wesley Knight, who is a fugitive of justice.

In September of 1981, the city of Portsmouth was rocked with the vicious murder of 23-year-old model and beauty school student, Laura Kempton. Laura had been home alone in her apartment when the killer broke in and took her life. One year later, in October of 1982, Portsmouth police found themselves in a nightmare déjà vu: another young model, 20-year-old Tammy Little, was found murdered and assaulted at her apartment. Just like Laura, Tammy was taking classes at Portsmouth’s beauty school.  Both cases were eerily similar, but investigators were hesitant to link them too soon. Decades passed without resolution in both cases, which had been inextricably linked in death… until a hot July day in 2023, when the NH Attorney General and Portsmouth PD held a press conference with a major update.

]]> 2314 Maine Unsolved: Mary Ellen Tanner, Part One https://murdershetold.com/episodes/mary-tanner 1978 - Kennebunk, Maine. On a hot summer day in July of 1978, a group of young sky divers made a chilling discovery as they flew over the skies of Gracie Evans Field in Lyman—the lifeless body of a young woman.  Her death was quickly ruled a homicide, and news spread like wildfire through the neighboring coastal Maine towns. The woman was identified as Mary Ellen Tanner, who had just celebrated her 18th birthday just weeks prior.  Mary was last seen on the evening of Friday, July 7th, 1978 on the Mousam River Bridge in the center of town, hitchhiking her way home, which was just a short distance away.  But Mary was holding onto a secret… and investigators couldn’t help but wonder if this gave her killer a motive to pick her up that night.  What happened to Mary Ellen Tanner?

Shirley Ann McBride, known as Tippy, mysteriously vanished without a trace during the summer of 1984. She was 15, and had recently relocated from rural Pittsfield, NH to her sister Donna's residence in nearby Concord. On the evening of Friday, July 13th, 1984, Tippy left to collect payment for her babysitting job but never arrived at her destination. Initially, the police considered her a runaway, assuming she would resurface soon, given her history. However, this time was different. Tippy left behind all her personal belongings, had no money, and hadn't informed anyone of her plans. Months went by with no sign of Tippy. Despite numerous tips, the offering of rewards, and her family's relentless pursuit of answers, Tippy's whereabouts remained unknown. Then, a tip reached the police station regarding a young man attempting to burn damp clothes that shockingly resembled the outfit Tippy was last seen wearing.

]]> 1718 The Tragic Murder of Kenneth Conrick https://murdershetold.com/episodes/kenneth-conrick 1979 - Gary, Indiana. It was October of 1979, and 8-year-old Kenneth “Kenny” Conrick had been dreaming for weeks about what Halloween costume he would pick for his favorite holiday. But somewhere on his walk home from school, Kenny vanished without a trace. Kenny was supposed to meet his babysitter, but he never he showed up.  The last known sighting of him was alongside his friend, walking down their familiar road. How could such a seemingly innocent walk turn into a nightmare? The community sprung into action, working together in a collective effort to bring Kenny home safely.  A few weeks later, the search for Kenny came to a tragic end; the little boy’s body was found behind the Salvation Army where he and his friends would play. He had been mutilated and strangled. Despite strong leads and multiple suspects, the investigation into Kenny's murder quickly stalled, leaving the case unsolved for decades. The search for answers raised various possibilities: was it a satanic cult? Someone known to Kenny? Or a predator waiting to strike? Then, in 2007, police interviewed a man named David Bowen, who was 16 at the time. Could Kenny’s killer have been right there in front of them all along?

]]> 2688 yes Patricia Newsom: East Haven Jane Doe Identified https://murdershetold.com/episodes/patricia-newsom 1975 - East Haven, Connecticut. On a warm August morning in 1975, a young woman's body was discovered in the drainage ditch behind Bradlee's Department Store in East Haven, Connecticut. She had died of asphyxia and was tightly wrapped in a tarp. Nobody knew who she was. For decades, investigators were haunted by the unknown identity of the woman. As the years passed, hope persisted that the next generation would have the technology to restore her identity and bring her family justice. In April of 2023, Police finally had their break: through genetic genealogy, the East Haven Jane Doe was officially identified as Patricia Meleady Newsom, an 18-year-old girl who had reportedly run away from a boarding school in New York sometime between 1973 and 1974. Maryann Collette has spent the past few years searching for her sister, while East Haven Police Captain Joseph Murgo has been trying to identify their Jane Doe.  Listen now to hear the remarkable circumstances that brought them together, the challenges of piecing together Patricia's life from 1973 to August 1975, and get a special look behind the scenes at how investigators today are trying to solve this New England mystery.  This is Patricia “Tricia” Meleady Newsom's story on Murder, She Told.

Virginia Sue Pictou Noyes had vanished without a trace from Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor in the early morning hours of April 25th, 1993. All eyes were on her husband, Larry Noyes, and his brother, Roger, who were both arrested after a violent altercation with Virginia at a bar shortly before her disappearance. Hospital staff said Virgina left without checking out, possibly on her own accord. This is the last place she was reliably seen. She was never heard from again. Virginia was a mother. A beloved sister and daughter. After 30 years of waiting, her family just wants to bring her home.  Through their own personal healing, Virginia's family is determined to shed light on the issue of violence and abuse experienced by Native women and people at a disproportionately higher rate. By sharing their stories, they hope to help other families and make a positive impact for the future of Indigenous people. This is an MMIW case from Maine.

This is an MMIW case from Maine. Virginia Sue Pictou is Mi'kmaw—part of Mi'kmaq Nation—one of Maine and Canada’s Native tribes. By sharing her story, we are keeping her name alive and bringing awareness to the epidemic that is violence against Indigenous women and girls.

]]> 2419 Bring Her Home: Virginia Pictou Noyes, Part One https://www.murdershetold.com/episodes/virginia-pictou-noyes 1993 - Bangor/Houlton, Maine. On the evening of April 24th, 1993, Virginia Sue Pictou Noyes was at a bar in Bangor, Maine with her husband, Larry Noyes, and his brother, Roger, when a brutal fight broke out. Both men beat Virginia, resulting in a double arrest for assault, and Virginia in the hospital. Sometime in the early morning hours, Virginia vanished. Police said she left the hospital on her own accord without checking out, and that they're reasonably sure she was seen at a truck stop in Houlton making a phone call—2.5 hours away in the direction of her home in Easton—trying to get back to her kids. The Pictou family isn’t so sure. Her brother, Robert Pictou, believes his sister was dead before she left Bangor... so what happened to Virginia? And 30 years later, why hasn’t she been found?

The little baby girl was rushed to the hospital where doctors tried everything they could. Aisha was later pronounced dead at just 8-months-old.

]]> 2577 Justice For Tracy Gilpin https://murdershetold.com/episodes/tracy-gilpin 1986 - Kingston, Massachussetts. On a brisk night in October of 1986, 15-year-old Tracy Gilpin left a friend’s house party in Rocky Nook to buy a pack of cigarettes at the Cumberland Farms gas station. When she left the parking lot around 11:30pm, it was the last time she would be seen alive. Three weeks later, Tracy’s body was found 11 miles away in Myles Standish State Forest. She’d been crushed by a 73 lb boulder. For years, the Gilpin’s fought to keep Tracy in the public eye. Her sister, Kerry Gilpin, inspired to help make a difference for other families, even became a state trooper (and eventually the superintendent) for the Massachusetts State Police.  As years went on and other cases were solved, they always wondered when their day for justice would come… and 32 years later, in 2018, it did; when police arrested 61-year-old Michael Arthur Hand in North Carolina. This is the murder of Tracy “Ashtray” Gilpin and what we know in the case against Michael Hand. Though an arrest has been made, the work is still not done. If you have any information on the murder of Tracy Gilpin, now is the time to come forward. Please contact the Massachusetts State Police investigators at (508) 894-2584 with any information.

]]> 2723 SOLVED: The 1971 Murder of Rita Curran https://murdershetold.com/episodes/rita-curran 1971 - Burlington, Vermont. In July of 1971, a 23-year-old elementary school teacher named Rita Curran was brutally attacked and murdered as she slept in her own bed in Burlington, VT. Her roommates just happened to be away, and in the span of 70 minutes, an unknown man entered the apartment and took her life. Rita’s murder shook the small city. It was brazen; and police had zero leads. For 51 years, Rita’s case remained unsolved. It was Burlington’s oldest cold case, and one of the most infamous true crime cases in New England. Ted Bundy was even considered to be a suspect at one point. Rita’s family came to the conclusion that her case may never be solved. Until February 21st, 2023, when Burlington police detectives and other officials announced that through genetic genealogy, they had solved the case: her killer was a man named William DeRoos, who was 31 at the time and lived just 2 floors above her. But who was he? And why did he murder Rita? This is a story of hope, and modern forensics. This is the story of Rita Curran; Burlington's newest solved case.

In 1947, an unknown assailant was violently attacking women on the streets of Pawtucket, RI, and Rita, who worked the late shift at the factory, was afraid she could be next.  Sadly, on February 1st, 1947, Rita’s fear came true. A man walking a trail in the woods discovered her body under a tree. She had been brutally stabbed to death over 30 times with a stiletto knife. Police had no idea who did this to her. A month after her murder, police question a boy named Raymond Patenaude, the brother of Rita’s best friend. He was already a potential suspect in their mind, but they didn’t have the evidence against him. Raymond told them of a strange dream he had, and came to the realization it wasn’t a dream at all, but a repressed memory… A memory of killing Rita. 76 years have passed since Rita’s murder, but that doesn’t mean it can’t still be solved.  If you or somebody you know has any information about the unsolved murder of Rita Bouchard, please call the Pawtucket Police Dept at 401-727-9100.

]]> 4322 Forever Young: The Story of Rebecca Pelkey, Part Two https://murdershetold.com/episodes/rebecca-pelkey-2 1988 - Hermon, Maine.  If you haven’t listened to the interrogation in part one, I suggest starting with that one first. In November of 1988, the body of 14-year-old Rebecca “Becky” Pelkey was found in the rural woods of Hermon, Maine. Becky went missing the week prior after a night out with friends, and was last seen in a car with a man named Ronald Boobar. Ron was 24-years-old. The following month, Ron was arrested for her murder. This is the story of Becky Pelkey, told through her family, and original transcripts and court records. You followed the investigation in part one, now follow the trial, the evidence, and the impact left from Becky’s death. This is an MMIW case from Maine. Becky is part of the Aroostook Band of Mi'kmaqs, one of Maine’s Native tribes. By sharing her story, we are keeping her name alive and bringing awareness to the epidemic that is violence against Indigenous women and girls.  Episode sources and photos: https://murdershetold.com/episodes/rebecca-pelkey-2 Support Murder, She Told: https://www.murdershetold.com/support Instagram: @murdershetoldpodcast TikTok: @murdershetold Facebook: /mstpodcast Website: murdershetold.com It’s time to end the violence.

]]> 3485 yes Nereida ‘Nettie’ Melendez: A Life Stolen https://murdershetold.com/episodes/nettie-melendez 1989 - Worcecster, Massachusetts. 17-year-old Nereida “Nettie” Melendez had a big day ahead of her, and plans for her bright future. June 5th, 1989, was just the beginning: her high school graduation. But when her name was called onstage to get her diploma, Nettie was nowhere to be found. Her family started to panic. Nettie was responsible, and it was highly unlike her to miss such an important event. Their panic ended in tragedy when her body was recovered after a family search the next day. To this day, her case still remains unsolved. Nettie’s brother, Peter Vasquez, and her cousin Doris, reflect on Nettie’s life, their frustrations with the slow moving investigation, and what they would say if they were face to face with her killer. If you have any information on the murder of Nettie Melendez, I encourage you to call the Worcester Police Dept at 508-799-8466, text TIPWPD to CRIMES (274637), or submit an anonymous tip.

She was 58, and lived on her own in an apartment in Brewer, Maine. She was doing well for herself after being diagnosed with mental health issues, and just wanted to live in peace. Alex James, who previously went by the name Joy Crafts Earley, never hurt a fly. On a summer evening in June 1995, Alex never came home from an evening stroll. The next day, her body was found near a storage unit, savagely murdered and assaulted. It was a seemingly random attack, and police had no suspects… until years later, when a 24-year-old man named Douglas Littlefield—who had been terrorizing women in the Bangor area—was finally apprehended for his crimes.  This is the story of Alex James, aka Joy Crafts Earley, and how survivors took down a sexual predator, and helped solve a murder.

It wasn’t until his neighbor pulled up at his work with an alarming message that his world was turned upside down: there was something wrong with his mother, Donna. Donna Anthony Fisher had been found unconscious from what appeared to be a medical event in her bedroom in Cranston, Rhode Island. A few days later on her 39th birthday, Donna passed away. But things took a turn when an autopsy revealed that Donna’s cause of death wasn’t an aneurysm like everyone thought, it was strangulation. Donna had been murdered. No charges has ever been made in Donna’s case, but that doesn’t mean it’s collecting dust. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Hear Donna’s story told through her son, Bobby, and walk through the case from the eyes of an investigator with the current detective, Robert Santagata. If there’s one thing they both want, it’s for this case to be solved.  If you have any information about the murder of Donna Fisher, please contact the Cranson RI Police Dept at (401) 942-2211.

No charges has ever been made in Donna’s case, but that doesn’t mean it’s collecting dust. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.

Hear Donna’s story told through her son, Bobby, and walk through the case from the eyes of an investigator with the current detective, Robert Santagata.

If there’s one thing they both want, it’s for this case to be solved. 

If you have any information about the murder of Donna Fisher, please contact the Cranson RI Police Dept at (401) 942-2211.

]]> 3053 no The Brutal Murders of Champa and Anita Patel https://murdershetold.com/episodes/champa-anita-patel 1996 - Windsor, Connecticut. On March 21st, 1996, 32-year-old Anita Patel stopped by her mother, Champaben Patel’s home, to drop off her toddler while she took her 4-year-old daughter to school. She had no idea that just behind the doors of the home, was a man attacking her mother. Anita yelled her daughter to take her brother and run. When police arrived to the Patel home, they walked into one of the worst crime scenes they’d ever encountered. Both Champa and Anita had been killed; tortured and set on fire. This was a brutal and awful crime. The Patel family sought comfort in one another in the immediate aftermath, mourning the loss of these two important women. But as time went on, the cracks in the family dynamic began to show, and they started questioning if somebody close knew more than they were letting on, asking themselves one important question: What if the killer was right there with them in the room? There is currently a $50k being offered in this case. If you have any information about the murders of Champaben and Anita Patel, please contact the Connecticut Cold Case Unit’s tip line at 860-548-0606, or email a tip to cold.case@ct.gov Episode sources and photos: https://www.murdershetold.com/episodes/champa-anita-patel Support the show: ⁠⁠https://www.murdershetold.com/support⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@murdershetoldpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@murdershetold⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠/mstpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠murdershetold.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ ---- Learn more about your ad choices.

Stephen & Djeswende "Wendy" Reid were ready to slow down and enjoy their golden years together. After impressive, lifelong careers as humanitarians serving those in need all over the world, they finally retired to Steve’s hometown of Concord, New Hampshire. On the afternoon of April 18th, 2022, the day after Easter, Steve and Wendy went for a walk on a trail system called Broken Ground Trails near their apartment complex. They never made it home. On the trail, they were shot to death in cold blood by a stranger; shaking up everyone in New England. Who would shoot such wonderful people? For 6 months it seemed like the police didn’t have many leads. A composite sketch had been released, but Steve and Wendy barely made the news anymore, despite the brazen nature of the crime…. Until October 13th, 2022, when the Concord police announced their previously unnamed person-of-interest had been apprehended for unrelated crimes in Vermont. His name was Logan Clegg, and this announcement came seemingly out-of-the-blue. A few days later, Logan was officially charged with two counts of murder. How did the police come to connect Logan to the crime scene?  The answer is complicated… and it came just in time, because Logan had a one way ticket out of the country in just 2 days… This is everything you need to know about the current investigation into the murders of Steve and Wendy Reid, and the charges against Logan Clegg Episode sources and photos: https://www.murdershetold.com/episodes/steve-and-wendy-reid Support the show: ⁠⁠https://www.murdershetold.com/support⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@murdershetoldpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠@murdershetold⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠/mstpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠murdershetold.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ ---- Learn more about your ad choices.

Why was she being punished?  In the height of an argument, she drew a knife in a threat against her step-father, John Phelps, who was the only thing standing in her way.

]]> 2369 yes The Incredible Life of Tot Harriman, Part Two https://murdershetold.com/episodes/tot-harriman-2 2001 - League City, Texas. When Tot Harriman arrived in the US after the fall of Saigon, Vietnam in 1975, nobody knew the lasting impact she would go on to have in greater Portland area in ME. With a big smile, hard work, and great food to share, she helped cultivate the Vietnamese community in Maine that stands strong today. When Tot was 57, she decided to move to Texas to be closer to her children. But in July of 2001 when she was going to look at homes, both Tot and her car vanished without a trace on Highway 35 between Houston and her destination of Corpus Christi. Her son, Chien Si fought tooth and nail to keep his mom’s case in spotlight— to make people care… but without clues pointing to an answer, the attention on Tot’s case tapered off, and the trail eventually went cold. To this day, her case remains unsolved.  Some think her case is connected to the Texas Killing Fields, others think she may have gone off the road, or been abducted. Her family just wants to know the truth about what happened to their mom. This is part two of Tot Tran Harriman’s story. If you have any information on Tot’s disappearance, I encourage you to contact the League City PD at (281) 332-2566.

When Tot Harriman arrived in the US after the fall of Saigon, Vietnam in 1975, nobody knew the lasting impact she would go on to have in greater Portland area in ME.

With a big smile, hard work, and great food to share, she helped cultivate the Vietnamese community in Maine that stands strong today.

When Tot was 57, she decided to move to Texas to be closer to her children. But in July of 2001 when she was going to look at homes, both Tot and her car vanished without a trace on Highway 35 between Houston and her destination of Corpus Christi.

Her son, Chien Si fought tooth and nail to keep his mom’s case in spotlight— to make people care… but without clues pointing to an answer, the attention on Tot’s case tapered off, and the trail eventually went cold. To this day, her case remains unsolved. 

Some think her case is connected to the Texas Killing Fields, others think she may have gone off the road, or been abducted. Her family just wants to know the truth about what happened to their mom.

This is part two of Tot Tran Harriman’s story.

  • If you have any information on Tot’s disappearance, I encourage you to contact the League City PD at (281) 332-2566.

On a hot summer night in 1988, 22-year-old Jane Boroski, who was 7-months pregnant, stopped at a convenience store on her way home from a fair, when she was attacked by an unknown assailant who stabbed her 27 times and left her for dead. Miraculously, Jane survived... and so did her baby. In the 1980’s, a serial killer was preying on women in the area surrounding the Connecticut River Valley in New Hampshire and Vermont. To this day, the identity of the killer is still unconfirmed, and remains one of New England’s most prolific unsolved cases. There are 7 known victims connected to the Connecticut River Valley Killer, and one survivor—who believes that without a doubt, she almost became his 8th.  But there is so much more to Jane Boroski than the night she was attacked, and 34-years later, she's ready to open up about it.

In July of 2006, when paramedics arrived at the apartment of 34-year-old Shawn O'Brien, they believed it was for a medical emergency. It wasn't until after he passed away—and the police consulted with the medical examiner—that they realized the magnitude of his injuries were not consistent with what allegedly happened: a fall from a seizure. His cause of death was blunt force trauma. By the time police got a search warrant, it had been 4 days and the crime scene was contaminated. What's worse, the medical examiner didn't have a clear story from police about how his injuries occurred, and ruled the manner of death as undetermined, beginning an uphill battle with the police (to investigate as a homicide) that continues to this day. 16 years later, the family is still asking themselves the same questions they did in 2006, and pushing even harder for the answers. His only daughter, Natalia St. Louis, remains determined to find out the truth about what happened to her father... and won't stop until she does.

Since then, there have been few answers as to what happened to Amy, and her case, although still open 15 years later, sits on a list of 100+ other cold cases in the state of Maine. But this story isn't about a murder. It’s about friendship, nostalgia, and legacy. The things that were, and a butterfly effect of the things that could have been. This is a revisit of the life and death of Amy Lynn Drake. This episode originally aired December 2020.

On the evening of September 28th, 1996, a man with a dog approached 6-year-old Jesus de la Cruz with the enticing offer of a shiny bike for him to play with. Jesus' bike had been broken, so he followed the man up the street and toward a park, excited about his new toy. He was never seen again. The man was later identified as Robert Levesque, but he claimed to have no knowledge about Jesus. On paper, he looked like the perfect suspect. But as the investigative layers begin to peel back and additional suspects emerge, detectives were left baffled with more questions than answers in a desperate race against time. The disappearance of Jesus de la Cruz remains one of New England's most haunting mysteries. It’s also every parent's worst nightmare: a total stranger abducting your child in broad daylight. If you have any information about the kidnapping of Jesus, I urge you to call the Lynn Police Dept at 781-595-2000.

At 55, Raynald Levesque was living the American dream he set out to achieve: he had a beautiful family, a community who loved him, and a successful local business he enjoyed. A proud French-Canadian, Ray was looking forward to traveling in his retirement, and meeting his future grandchildren... but Ray would never see those golden years. One morning in April of 1994, he was shot by an unknown man in his own home in Madison, Maine. The intruder stole cash and left Ray for dead. When he was discovered hours later, it was too late. For the past 28-years, Ray's case has quietly sat on the Maine State Unsolved Homicide list. Little progress has been made since the initial investigation.  But Ray's daughter, Julia, still holds onto faith that somebody has the key. She reached out to me to tell her dad's story, hoping somebody out there can help bring her family the long-awaited answers they deserve. If you have any information about the murder of Ray Levesque, please contact the Maine State Major Crimes Unit Central at (207) 624-7143 or leave a tip.

]]> 2336 yes The Disappearance of Lynne Schulze https://murdershetold.com/episodes/lynne-schulze 1971 - Middlebury, Vermont. For 18-year-old Lynne Schulze, 1971 was an exciting time. She was coming-of-age during a time of great change in America, and left her hometown in Connecticut to go to a quaint New England liberal arts school, Middlebury College. But three months after her freedom as a young adult began, something went wrong. Lynne missed an important exam; one she'd been studying for. That same day, she was spotted near a bus station in town, but had left all of her belongings in her dorm. At the time, it was easy to cast missing young people as counter-culture runaways; moving off the grid in the nearby mountains. But Lynne was responsible, and her family insisted she wouldn't just leave without telling them... but she just vanished, leaving behind little for police to go on... within months, Lynne's case sadly went cold. Until 2015, when an infamous millionaire named Robert Durst is arrested for murder, and this 44-year-old, small-town missing person case is thrust into the national spotlight. Is Robert Durst the key to solving this mystery? If you have any information about the 1971 disappearance of Lynne Schulze, please contact Thomas Hanley at the Middlebury Police Dept at (802)-388-3191.

His entire body was bruised and beaten. He made it to the hospital before he passed away. The police ultimately closed this case: they say it was an accident and his injuries were self-inflicted. But the details, crime scene, and circumstances simply don't add up, and his mother, Sarah, has devoted her life to finding the answers to what happened to her son. For this episode of Murder, She Told, we go "away" to North Carolina for a story that has a surprising connection to New England. This is part one of the case of Brandon Embry.

In April of 1850, as the sun shone on Woodbury Brook in Saco, Maine, a boy made a grisly discovery: the body of a young woman tied to a board. It was soon determined that the woman, known as Mary Bean, was killed during a botched abortion from the local botanic doctor, James Smith. During the course of the trial, it was revealed that Mary Bean was actually Berengera Caswell, a 21-year-old Canadian factory worker who was trying to make a life for herself in New England. The murder of Mary Bean was written into a fictional, salacious true crime novella, warning young women against the dangers of promiscuity and the inevitable demise of working mill girls. For years, the death of Berengera Caswell remained buried under the moral parable of her infamous pseudonym... until 2007, when the true identity of Mary Bean was unearthed for the modern era.

In December of 2011, her disappearance sparked a national media storm, catapulting Trista Reynolds and her missing wispy blonde-haired toddler into the white hot spotlight. The police declared that they believed 20-month-old Ayla was a victim of foul play, adding that the people who were with her that night—including her father, Justin DiPietro—were not being truthful. In January of 2013, police showed Trista the evidence they'd found all throughout the home... Ayla's blood. Trista believed more than ever her daughter had been murdered, so she took matters in her own hands to put the pressure on, letting the world know what happened to little Ayla in the DiPietro home that cold December night: she revealed the blood evidence to the public. The disappearance of little Ayla Bell Reynolds is the largest criminal investigation in Maine State History, and as of 2021, the case remains without justice.

By the time Nancy Fredette was able to get to the bedroom where shots rang out on the morning of May 26th, 1977, it was too late. The armed intruder had left through the back door, and her husband, Fred Fredette, lay dying on the bed in their Biddeford, Maine home. He passed away at the hospital later that night, and an investigation for his murder ensued. Weeks later, Nancy got a surprise when she herself was arrested for the murder of her husband. The state of Maine vs. Nancy Fredette is one of the most unique cases in Maine criminal history.

After celebrating her 63rd birthday at her favorite local dive bar and spending the day at a family wedding, Dorothea Burke went missing. Five days later, her body was found on the side on a country back road—she's been a victim of blunt force trauma.

For years her case sat on Maine's unsolved homicide list with no updates to family or media. And then in September of 2020, Maine State Police announced an arrest had been made: 57-year-old Kirt Damon Sr, a guest and local man who had been at the wedding that night.

When Kathleen Marie Flynn left for school the morning of September 23rd, 1986 in Norwalk, Connecticut it was just a normal day. But when 3:30 rolled around and punctual Kathleen still wasn't home from school, her mother started panicking. Later that night Kathleen's body is found in the woods. She'd been killed on her way home from school. Police quickly add 23-year-old Marc Karun to their suspect list based on a violent assault he'd committed earlier that year. There were similarities between that case and Kathleen's murder, but police don't have enough evidence to charge him. But this is the 1980's, and DNA evidence is decades away from what we know today. So Marc Karun walked a free man, terrorizing women in the Norwalk community, and spending short stints in jail... until 2013, when Marc Karun moved to a tiny town in the middle of central Maine and made his presence loud and clear... This is a story of a monster who lived amongst us. The story of innocence stolen, and the story of the rise of DNA evidence and the long, winding road to justice.
