UMaine Assisting Police in Cold Case Search, Media Report
WGME (Channel 13 in Portland), the Sun Journal and the Daily Bulldog reported the University of Maine is assisting with a search for a teenage woman who went missing in 1986. The new search for Kimberly Moreau is a coordinated effort with state police, the Maine Warden Service, and local and county police, according to reports. Ground-penetrating radar equipment from UMaine is being used in the search of a property in Canton, the reports state. “We actually have a couple of professors that have come down and given us their time, as well as their equipment,” Detective Sgt. Mark Holmquist from the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit told the Sun Journal. “Basically, (the ground-penetrating radar) scans the ground underneath and looks for any signs of any gaps within the ground that aren’t normal.”
