As much as I love Dogs and are amazed what they can be trained for - I wouldn't put too much investment into the sniffer dogs for this case.
Teens make mistakes, young adults make mistakes and adults make mistakes BUT the circumstances in this case get me suspicious of things that might have happened. Sounds like the case was treated as an accident at first and I think a lot of precious time was missed investigating the hard facts! JMO I personally think she was abducted and the scene was staged......
21-year-old Maura Murray disappeared on Monday, February 9, 2004 following a minor 1-car accident on Route 112 near Woodsville, New Hampshire.

Just caught up on this case, but as I say in many of these.. People underestimate how far people can travel by foot. These search areas that are conducted for missing people are entirely too narrow. They do it for obvious reasons (money, personnel available to search, etc..), but people can travel FAR when they are out and about and get lost. It's absolutely nothing to walk 3 miles in an hour, even in mountains.
I always remind people of James Kim whose car broke down with his family in the Oregon Mountains during a snowstorm. He was cold and hungry and managed to walk 16 miles away from his vehicle looking for help through the snow and rugged mountain terrain.
Could she have been abducted by an opportune sexual predator? Of course. But there's lots of evidence pointing towards a distraught, troubled person with alcohol issues that ran away from a DUI accident.. IMO, odds are strongly in favor of an exposure/hypothermia case here and her body is further from the crash site than what has been searched so far.
I feel 80% that she ended up dying in the woods vs 20% was picked up and killed by an abductor.
Anyone hear about a passing motorist seeing a woman describing Maura and her clothes traveling quickly on foot heading east around 8/9 pm on that night? Only heard it once or twice, but it was mentioned a while after she was reported missing which makes me believe the witness isn’t so credible.
People who are not from the area and have never been there do not realize the rock crevices, small caves etc. that inhabit the place. Tuckermans Ravine, Huntingtons Ravine still have snow in May most times.
Soil scanned on property could help in NH cold case
After 14 years, there are still no answers in the search for Maura Murray. The 21-year-old vanished on a stretch of Route 112 in Woodsville, New Hampshire, while on a mysterious trip she never told anyone about. Now, a new push to find clues in her disappearance has a crew returning to the area.
In Woodsville, New Hampshire, a high-tech gadget is scanning the ground using radar. The property it's checking was one of interest in the Maura Murray case 14 years ago. All these years later, her father is still looking for answers and says he's thankful for the people who still support him in his search.
"This something that has to be done and it's in a place that absolutely has to be ruled out," dad Fred Murray said.
