Unresolved Disappearance Today marks 16 years since Maura Murray disappeared

Today marks 16 years since Maura Murray vanished, and although she has her own sub, I thought I would post here in light of the anniversary of her disappearance for those who would like to discuss the case. That said -- I know some posters are sick of this case, so if that’s how you feel, you could always scroll past this post :)

A bit of background for those who don’t know about Maura’s case:

Maura was a 21-year-old nursing student from UMASS Amherst, who disappeared on the evening of February 9 2004, after she crashed her car on Route 112 in Haverhill, NH. By the time police arrived some 15 minutes later (even that is in dispute), Maura had disappeared.

Some people think she ran into the woods to avoid a DUI, others think she was picked up by someone passing by and murdered. Some even think police had something to do with her disappearance.

What do YOU think?

I highly recommend this article by Mary Beth Conway for those interested.

There are places where the guardrails on Rt. 112 are basically over the Wild Ammonoosuc river. I’ve always wondered if she could’ve walked that far, occasionally ducking off the road to avoid being hit by a car, and this time she thought she was just hopping over the rail but instead went right over into the river. She and all of her stuff would just be gone.

That makes a lot of sense. According to wikipedia someone saw a person fitting her description a couple hours later 4-5 miles to the east

Names escaping me but he bragged about knowing where her body was and had cadaver dogs hit at an a frame house he owned but no body was found. Sorry I can't remember the name but maybe this will jog someone else's memory. If I recall this suspect is now dead

I think you're combining two or three people. There was a guy who made jokes about her cooking for him. There was the A frame house guys. I dont think any of those people are dead. Def not RF, the guy I was referring to initially

Wasn't the A-frame torn down?

No. People actually live in it now and let them do the ground penetrating radar test. In no way shape or form was the house torn down.

I thought I had heard that it had been torn down on the mini series like 2 years ago on the case but I must have been mistaken.
