S2 E13 What Really Happened to Liz Perkins?

Author: Locating the Lost March 14, 2022 Duration: 59:35

On the evening of July 31st, 2018 Liz Munster, who also goes by the name Perkins had been picked up at a friend's house in Augusta  Maine by a male individual at about 8:30pm.  She never came home, her family believe she overdosed at his home and he disposed of her body on the side of the weeks mills road in Augusta Maine in the early hours of August 1st,2018.  This man admitted to police she had been with him that night and took them to the location where her body was found yet he has never been charged with any crime.

Laws need to change in Maine in regards to illegally disposing of a human body.  Detectives told the family they could do nothing more than charge him with littering.   Why is this man still walking free?  If she died of an overdose, text messages show that he provided her with the drugs.  Due to decomposition, the medical examiner was unable to rule a cause of death for Liz Perkins.  

We urge you to take a moment and sign a petition for the family to try to get a bill that would change the laws in Maine in regards to disposal of a human body at the link below

There are names that linger in the air of a town long after the news vans have left, and stories that exist only in the fragmented memories of those left waiting. Locating the Lost sits with those stories. This isn't a procedural rundown of cold cases, but a deliberate effort to recenter the human beings at the heart of every disappearance. Each episode focuses on a single person who has vanished, weaving together the details of their life, the circumstances of their last known moments, and the enduring impact of their absence on family and community. You'll hear the subtle tensions in a detective's voice, the raw hope in a sibling's recollection, and the heavy silence that follows an unanswered question. The goal here isn't sensationalism, but preservation-giving auditory space to narratives that risk fading from public consciousness. By tuning into this podcast, you become a witness to these searches, understanding that every case file represents a world upended. It's a sobering, necessary listen for anyone who believes that forgetting is a second disappearance.
