  • The Disappearance of Michael Madore (Maine)
    Aug 21 2025

    When Michael Madore vanished almost 30 years ago, the first theories of his disappearance were pulled from letters found at his house: he was supposedly leaving behind his home and belongings and dogs to start a new life in Alaska. That’s the story police in Milo, Maine, first heard when Mike was reported missing.

    But now, without any sign of life for nearly three decades and no indication that Mike made it to the Last Frontier for a fresh start, his sister and brother-in-law want answers. They want the truth. More than anything, they want to bring Mike home where he can finally rest.

    • If you have information relating to the disappearance of Michael Madore, please contact Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit - North at (207) 973-3750, toll-free 1-800-432-7381, or leave a tip.

  • The Murder of Denise Robert (New Hampshire)
    Aug 14 2025

    She was out on her usual Sunday night walk when an unknown killer pulled up and shot her, leaving her mortally wounded in the street of what locals considered a safe neighborhood. Why someone would target Denise Robert and take her life still doesn’t make any sense to her family and those who knew her best, even 10 years later.

    This case is not short on theories. Police have fielded questions about everything from a possible gang initiation to serial killers, but we still don’t know what really happened.

    • Anyone with information regarding the murder of Denise Robert is urged to contact the Manchester Police Department Crimeline at (603) 624-4040. You can also submit a tip at manchestercrimeline.org.

  • The Murder of Christine Grega (Vermont)
    Aug 7 2025

    When Christine Grega and her husband, John Grega, set off for a family vacation to Vermont with their young son, it was a trip meant to mend their relationship. Instead, the weekend ended in devastation when Christine was found in their borrowed ski condo, the victim of a violent attack.

    After two decades filled with investigations, prosecutions, an exoneration, and lawsuits, it still isn’t clear what really happened on the night of September 12, 1994.

    • Vermont State Police keeps an online database of all the state’s unsolved homicide cases. Christine Grega does not appear on the list. If you know anything about the murder of Christine Grega, you can submit a tip anonymously by texting the keyword VTIPS to 274637 (CRIMES) or via the tip form.
