A woman is found dead after neighbors report hearing an arguement Shirley Baldwin, 27, female, was last seen alive around 2:30 a.m. on Sunday, April 4, 1976, in Lisbon Falls, Maine. Later that day she was discovered lying on the kitchen floor of her apartment, where authorities determined she had died by homicide. The early statements from local officials characterized the scene as an apparent homicide, and contemporary notices fixed the date and place of death as April 4 in Lisbon Falls.
Investigators from the Lisbon Police Department and the Maine State Police pursued the case, treating it as a murder from the outset. Despite those efforts, the investigation did not yield a public identification of the person responsible. No arrests were announced, and the case remains officially unsolved, with state authorities continuing to highlight it among Maine's open homicide investigations.
