Judy Lord - Homicide

On May 20, 1975 at approximately 12:30 PM, the body of 22 year old Judy Lord was discovered in her Royal Gardens apartment.  She had been suffocated and strangled.  At the time of her murder, Judy Lord lived with her 17-month-old son Gregory.  Judy was last seen alive on the evening of May 19, 1975 at about 10:30 PM, when she left a volleyball game that was being played in a common area of the apartment complex.

Crime scene technicians spent over two days processing the apartment for evidence.   Over the years numerous interviews have been conducted with friends, neighbors and acquaintances.  In spite of the efforts of investigators and the New Hampshire State Police Crime Lab, this case remains unsolved.


 Shirley Ann "Tippy" McBride - Disappearance

Shirley Ann McBride who was known to her friends as “Tippy,” was last seen in Concord on July 13th, 1984 leaving her sister’s apartment on Union Street. Shirley Ann was 15 years old at the time of her disappearance. Shirley has not been seen nor heard from since. She was wearing light summer clothing at the time of her disappearance.  She left behind money, clothing, and other personal effects.  Although this case has not been ruled a homicide, the circumstances surrounding her disappearance would suggest foul play was involved.

 


 David Braley - Suspicious Death

David Braley, a 21 year old Belmont, NH resident was last seen alive at the Take 5 Music Hall Night Club in Concord on November 10, 1989.  His body was pulled from the Merrimack River in Manchester, NH on March 18, 1990.  Police believe that David was involved in an altercation behind the nightclub that November evening and was badly beaten.  Police believe that David’s body was later dumped into the river. Although this case was not ruled a homicide by the State Medical Examiner, the circumstances surrounding David Braley's death are suspicious and would suggest foul play was involved.
