1978 - Kennebunk, Maine.
On a muggy Sunday afternoon in July of 1978, 18-year-old Mary Tanner was discovered in a field in Lyman, Maine. She had been beaten to death.
Two nights earlier, on July 7, 1978, Mary attended several parties around town to celebrate Kennebunk’s local festival. She was last seen hitching a ride on the Mousam River Bridge in Kennebunk around 11pm. What happened after that has remained a mystery for the past 45 years.
Mary had a lot of love to give, and today—more than ever—her friends and family want to make sure that despite the lack of progress in her case, Mary Ellen Tanner will not be forgotten.

True crime

1981 - Norton, Massachusetts.

In October 1981, 38-year-old Andrew Peter Dabbs, shot his girlfriend, Robin Shea, while driving through Norton, MA, leaving her to die on the side of the road. Robin was just 21. 
At first, police merely wanted to talk to Peter. But when he skipped town, they had no choice but to issue a warrant for his arrest for murder. 
After an encounter that almost got him caught, investigators counted the days until Peter slipped up again. 40 years later, both police and the Shea family are still hoping that day will come.
If you have any information on Andrew Peter Dabbs, please contact the Boston Field Office of the FBI at (857) 386-2000 or leave a tip at fbi.gov.

Andrew Peter Dabbs: Justice for Robin Shea

2004 - Northport, Maine. 
Something about 28-year-old Jeremy Alex was different. He wasn’t his usual free-spirited self—lately, he’d been acting more and more paranoid that bad guys were coming after him. 
Then, on the cool evening of April 24, 2004, Jeremy suddenly ran into his former teacher’s backyard in a panic, wad of cash in hand. Despite trying to calm him, Jeremy ran off into the thick Maine forest, never to be seen again.
The truth of what happened that night is just as bizarre and murky as it was in 2004. But the Alex family is hopeful that through a tangled web of speculation and rumors, the truth will eventually emerge. After all, how much longer can somebody keep a secret?

If you have any information on the disappearance of Jeremy Alex, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Central at (207) 624-7076 ext. 9.

Introducing: Military Murder

1987 - Roxbury, Massachusetts. 
It was Labor Day weekend in 1987. 19-year-old Dora Brimage was celebrating her friend’s birthday when she got into a car to head to a club called Joe’s Jaguar. She never came home. Her body was found the following morning at a construction site when the workers showed up for their shift.
For years, Dora’s case sat unnoticed in a pile of Boston’s unsolved crimes. It hadn’t gotten much coverage when it first happened, and it all but seemed like Dora had faded into history. 
Until 2013, when the DNA from her kit was processed for the first time, revealing a killer who had been there all along.

The Murder of Dora Jean Brimage

1983 - Kittery, Maine. 
Sometime after leaving work on February 3, 1983, 31-year-old Reeves K. Johnson vanished without a trace. Over the next three weeks, his bank account was drained to make strange purchases that weren’t discovered until the account was overdrawn. The case went cold almost immediately.
In 2021, Murder, She Told produced a special episode on Reeves’ case, but a lot has changed since then. This is not that episode.
In collaboration with the Kittery Police Dept, we have uncovered new information that wasn’t known before.
Listen to Reeves Johnson’s story with a fresh perspective and new interview, go behind the scenes of the investigation, and hear first-hand how we discovered the first major clues of this newly re-opened unsolved case. 
If you have any information on the disappearance of Reeves Johnson, please contact Sgt. Brian Cummer of the Kittery Police Dept at (207) 439-1638 or bcummer@kitterypolice.com.
