Segments: .... the brutal 1980 killing of a Maine teenager....

I've probably seen it and just don't remember it, but does anyone remember this? Its always rare to see segments about people from Maine

Yes, the murder of Joyce Mclain (of East Millinocket, Maine). Someone posted a message here recently, and is said to be a Maine resident. According to this person, Mclain's murder remains unsolved.

I've only seen this segment once, when it originally aired and I was only 7. Joyce was found in a field near her school, and at the end of the segment they showed a candlelight vigil that friends and family held for her on the 8th anniversary of her murder. I remember thinking about that segment for a long time after seeing it.

If you would like I have an extra copy of that segment I could mail to you at no charge if you would like it email me at abcde131@yahoo.com

The segment aired yesterday (god those 80s hair-dos were awful) and there was no update however, I did some independent research and found that another murder was committed twenty two years later in the same town which for many brought Joyce's case back into focus - alas no suspect has been found although also mentioned was that the "paper mills" have now closed down (UM alluded that workers at the mill might have done Joyce in) -Here is a brief excerpt -

"For many townspeople, Rossignol's homicide brought back memories of Joyce McLain, a 16-year-old East Millinocket girl who was bludgeoned to death 22 years ago while jogging behind the high school. Like Rossignol, McLain was a good student and musician. Her killer was never found.

"She had a very promising future ahead of her, like Dawn, and it does bring it back," said Thomas Tetu, interim principal at Schenck High School."

Iwould like more information on Rossignal's case if you have it. Thanks.
