About this episode
2005. Orland, Maine.
On the morning of July 15, 2005, 46-year-old Brian Allen was found shot to death in a bed at a home where he had been staying in Orland—a small blueberry town on the coast of Maine, where he worked. His death was ruled a homicide.
Brian’s murder received little media coverage and quietly slipped onto Maine’s list of unsolved homicides.
Now, two decades later, Brian’s sister Trista is breaking her silence. For the first time, she shares memories of her brother, why she had to step away from the fight for justice, and the deep determination that’s pushing her to seek out the truth—no matter the cost.
If you have information that could help solve Brian’s case, please contact Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit North at (207) 973-3750 or toll free 1-800-432-7381. You can also leave a tip here: https://www.maine.gov/dps/msp/about/report-crime/major-crimes-unit-north
