The Murder of Pamela Webb (Maine)

AUDIOCHUCK
About this episode

When Pamela Webb left her home in Winthrop, Maine, on the first Saturday of July in 1989, her dog and Bible beside her, she could not have anticipated that her road trip would be interrupted by a still unknown predator. There was no shortage of potential connections to explore following her presumed abduction and murder, but so far, the perceived similarities have not developed into any publicly named suspects or arrests.

What happened to Pamela Webb, and what are investigators doing to answer that question today, more than 35 years later?

  • If you have any information that could help close this case, please share it with Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South at (207) 624-7076, extension 9. You can also leave a tip via the tip form.
  • New Hampshire State Police are also investigating Pamela’s murder. Submit a tip using the Cold Case Unit tip form.
