Maura Murray

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has released an alert on Maura Murray from their Violent Crime Apprehension Program, which tracks serial offenders.

“My heart is heavy upon learning that these remains do not belong to my little sister,” Julie Murray, sister of the missing Maura Murray said.

The potential new evidence in the Maura Murray case was discovered just a little more than 20 miles away from where the college student crashed her car into a tree, then vanished, on Feb. 9, 2004.

“If it’s truly Maura, the people that are responsible can be brought to justice," said the missing college student's sister, Julie Murray.

Maura Murray vanished back in 2004 after last being spotted on a New Hampshire road.

Julie Murray said she and her family may end up digging up a basement themselves — but that it shouldn't have to come to that.

Supporters returned to the crash site where Maura Murray, a nursing student at University of Massachusetts-Amherst, was last seen 15 years ago.

"There were cadaver dogs that got positive hits in a basement in the area around the crash scene, and also, there was a ground-penetrating radar report to corroborate that," Kurtis Murray said as his family holds out hope they may yet find Maura's body 15 years after she vanished following a car crash.

“There were rumors out there that Maura was taken and brought to this A-frame and was actually killed in the A-frame."

One element of the Maura Murray case has boggled those who are enthralled with it: the phone call that Maura received from her sister a few days before she vanished.
