About this episode

It wasn’t unusual for months or even years to pass without contact between Marilyn Lehan and her family, but when her brother decided to make a spontaneous visit to Marilyn’s home in Maine one summer, it set off alarm bells. The stories about her last known whereabouts don’t make sense to her family, and at this point, no one knows for sure the last time she was seen alive.

  • Marilyn Lehan would be 70 years old today. If you have information relating to her disappearance, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit - North at (207) 973-3750 or toll free at 1-800-432-7381. You can also leave a tip by visiting the link here
