    Trouble in Townsend: the Murder of Judith Viewig and the Disappearance of Deborah Quimby

    Townsend, Massachusetts is a small town of less than 10,000 residents bordering New Hampshire.  Townsend is part of Middlesex County, but it borders the Worcester County line and the cases we explore in this episode may be closely connected to each other, and other unsolved murders from the same area and during the same time period. We again return to 1973 and the unsolved murder of 31-year-old school teacher Judith Viewig in Townsend. Then we move forward four years to the same small town and the disappearance of 13-year-old Deborah Quimby in May 1977.
