    200. Judi and Missy: A tale of two 2016 murders

    Judi Therianos and Missy Bevers had nothing in common except for the fact they were both beloved women and mothers who were murdered, senselessly, in 2016. Their murders didn’t have much in common, either. One got the usual local coverage, the other was an internet sleuth sensation. One was solved fairly quickly, the other, 10 years later, is still as much of a mystery as it was in 2016. But they both left devastated family and friends in their wake, and their homicides and the aftermath say something about the bigger picture 10 years ago — in a lot of ways, little has improved. To commemorate our 200th episode, we look at the two homicides from 2016, the same year we started this podcast.

    199. He hunted humans

    At first no one in central-eastern Ohio connected the killings — they were hunters, outdoorsmen, a jogger — all shot by someone who left no trace between 1989 and 1992. When they finally arrested Thomas Dillon for five murders, law enforcement was happy to leave it at that. But it was clear that Dillon’s carnage stretched far beyond the rural counties of that area of Ohio. Maureen presents. We also have updates on the arrest of Stephen Bouchard in the 1987 Maine murder of Alice Hawkes, and the latest on Maine’s favorite perv, Eliot Cutler. Rebecca gives the NNW treatment to the Netflix series “Clickbait.” To check out Maureen’s Maine-based Bernadette “Bernie” O’Dea mystery novels, including the award-winning (seriously!)

    198. ‘Unsolveable’ Alice Hawkes murder solved

    When we featured Alice Hawkes’ 1987 homicide in Episode 191 as one of our Maine Cold Cases of the 1980s, Maureen declared that it would never be “solved,” though there was s definite suspect.

    197. Mary Ellen Tanner, nearly 50 years of questions

    Mary Ellen Tanner had planned to go to Massachusetts for the weekend to attend the funeral of her boyfriend’s brother the weekend of July 7, 1978. It wasn’t until two days later that anyone knew she’d never left her hometown in Maine — when her beaten body was found in a remote field in Lyman, Maine. Over the decades, questions about the last hours of her life still haunt her friends, family, the town and the investigators who say they’re still looking for her killer. Rebecca presents.

    196. Dominique Dunne: Murder with no justice

    Dominique Dunne was 22 and a rising star in in Hollywood in 1982 — she had everything going for her, except when it came to her ex-boyfriend, Ma Maison head chef John Sweeney. She’d broken up with him after several severe beatings and nearly a year of coercive control, but he still wouldn’t leave her alone. When she tried to get the message across, he killed her. That was just the beginning, as a justice system more concerned about protecting the reputation of a man with a history of violence again women than getting justice for his victim let her, her family and her friends down again. Maureen presents. Rebecca gives the NNW review treatment to the Netflix doc “Victim, Suspect.”

    193. The 2025 Maine Homicide List

    Maine had 21 homicides in 2025, and we take a look at them. Guns and domestic violence continue to be the dominant themes, with mental health issues also a troubling contributing factor. From people who know each other all too well, to the bizarre seemingly random shooting of a guy on his motorcycle, there are 21 stories of lives lost that may resonate with you, no matter where you live. We also take a quick look at Maine’s biennial domestic violence homicide report, and what it says about how the public, police and the media perceive domestic homicide, and how that adds to the problem.
