Lori Taylor had been trying to break up with Nadim Haque for a while by May of 1996, but he wouldn’t take no for an answer. Then Lori ended up dead, stabbed to death in her Lewiston, Maine, apartment just minutes before her 14-year-old daughter arrived home from school. Nadim had all the usual excuses guys like him use. Would a jury buy it? Rebecca presents. T0 check out Maureen’s Maine-based Bernadette “Bernie” O’Dea mystery novels, including the award-winning (seriously!) Dying for News, clic

Arnold Nash kept ending up in Maine State Prison. Every time he did, he escaped. The first escape lasted 41 days and resulted in a wild and wooly central Maine manhunt.

In July 1970, three young men from Cape Breton set off on a great adventure across the border. The adventure ended in tragedy, on the tracks of the Bangor & Aroostook rail line in Maine. No one believed at the time — or now — that Ken Novak, Terry Burt and David Burrows would bed down on active railroad tracks for the night, and not react as a freight train beared down on them. No one but local law enforcement, that is. Nearly 60 years later, the search for what really happened to the the Cape B

In fall of 2012, Brianna Alley and Peter Neblett felt lucky that they’d been able to rent a house in the village of Hall Quarry on Mount Desert Island in Maine for a very reasonable price, even though the landlord seemed kind of sketchy. It turns out, though, that the man they thought was Richard Bellitieri may not be him at all, but an imposter. In fact, none of Rick’s friends had seen him since July 2012.

From three young men from New York in 1938, to Geraldine Largay in 2013, we take a look at some of the well-known, and not so well-known, people who’ve gotten lost on the 2,190-mile trail from Georgia to Maine. Many of them in
