The Murders of Cyrus Everett and Donna Mauch (Maine)

MAINE MURDERS, 1964: When a cryptic poem landed on the editor's desk at the Fort Fairfield Review in 1984, it would be the beginning of the end of a 20 year saga that cast a dark shadow over the small Aroostook County town.

Two highly publicized murders, plagued by inexperience, rumor, and political drama, would go unsolved for two decades until finally, the spider himself got caught in the tangled web he believed he was weaving.

These are the Fort Fairfield Murders of Cyrus Everett and Donna Mauch.
