Earlier today, a Facebook profile linked to a former NH State Trooper posted a number of alarming claims on a page run by Maura Murray’s family. James A. Conrad claims Maura was murdered, her body buried under a suspect’s new house, and that the state police and prosecutor’s know this but lack the evidence to…
Above is a screen grab from the MM Facebook page, today. On the page, Helena addresses the Butson’s sighting, acknowledging that it did occur and the family did know about it. She also confirms that Sara Alfieri told “the real story” to Fred. But she is now peddling back on what she told me in…
According to the new witness who came forward this week, saying she saw Maura with two friends at Butson’s Supermarket an hour before she disappeared, Fred Murray has known about the sighting from the beginning. And he tried to get the video before the authorities could properly track it down. I remember **** talking in…
I can share a few more details from the cashier from Butson’s in Woodsville who claims she saw Maura with two friends an hour before her disappearance. She personally checked their ID as they purchased alcohol. She says all the women had out-of-state ID. They were all out of state. Two were Mass, the third…
Here’s a little more from the nice woman who believes she saw Maura in her record store last week: Just let you know that the girl we have seen here in QC look like the pictures of Maura Murray but older of course! She looks like around 34… Like I said in another email. It’s…
We’re starting to get some follow-up info on our trip across the border. Seems there was a very good sighting in Quebec City. Not sure if this is related to the photograph below but I’m going to post everything as it comes in (at least the stuff I can verify). During our time in Quebec…
I’m devoting the next few weeks to filling in some holes in my reporting as I work on another draft of the book. Today, I spoke with Linda Salamone, who owns a condo in the Seasons Resort community of North Conway. Maura called her to check on availability of her rental the day she went…
A song written by Kurt, in 2010: What I Wouldn’t Give Where did you run Is there somewhere that your new life has begun Adrift In a sea of endless time What have we done To make you turn your back on us and run From our love That will grow on your return Why…
Just when you think you know everything about this case… An astute reader found this filing in Norfolk County, Mass. It’s a notice from the tax man, dated three days before Maura disappeared. Seems the county was about to seize the property in Weymouth where Fred was living when he wasn’t staying in motels. Does…
Recently I spoke to a couple people who knew Maura as a phenomenal high school runner from Hanson, Mass. The first was reporter Joe Reardon, who wrote for the Boston Herald. “She was a doll,” he said. “She didn’t have natural speed. What she had was endurance. She’d set the pace and run the faster…
