A woman is found murdered in her residence In the small town of Bowdoinham, Maine, the quiet life of 90-year-old Emily Chase, a White female, came to a tragic end on February 19, 1978. She was discovered inside her home, the victim of an apparent homicide. The day before her body was found, she was seen alive at approximately 10:15 in the morning, a seemingly ordinary Saturday, as she received her mail from a friend.
This would be the last time she was seen alive.
For more than four decades, the circumstances surrounding her death have remained a mystery, leaving a lingering question in the community. Emily lived alone, and details about what transpired inside her residence have not been released to the public. The case is considered a cold case, a chilling chapter in the town's history that has yet to find its conclusion.
Despite the passage of time, law enforcement has not given up on finding answers. The Maine State Police continue to list Emily Chase's death as an unsolved homicide and periodically appeal to the public for any information that might shed light on this decades-old crime. No arrests have ever been made in connection with her death, and there have been no publicly identified suspects. The search for who was responsible for the death of Emily Chase continues, a silent testament to a life cut short and a plea for justice that has echoed through the years.
