The Unsolved Case of Judith Hand

1971 - Farmington, Maine.

When 15-year-old Judith Hand went missing after failing to report to her after-school babysitting job on September 10, 1971, the Farmington Police told her family she’d be back. 

Her family wasn’t convinced. They knew something was wrong. Judy was extremely responsible, and wouldn’t just skip out on her job let alone not come home. 

Thirteen days later, Judy's body was found buried in a decaying sawdust pile at an abandoned mill. Though her cause of death was undetermined, there was no question the baby-faced teen had been murdered. While the agonizing search for Judy had ended, the hunt for her killer had only just begun.

The murder of Judy Hand remains unsolved. If you have any information, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit-South at (207) 624-7076 X9, or toll free at 1-800-228-0857.
