When two women known to spend time in Manchester, New Hampshire’s inner city both dropped out of contact with their families in the late 1990s, it wasn’t entirely out of character from the lives they once led. But for Mindy West’s father, who had watched her working to get her life back on track, he just knew that something was wrong. Rosalie Miller’s brother, too, worried as weeks passed without contact from his sister, despite her history of disappearing.

The violent predator on the streets of Manchester and surrounding communities at the time of their murders has never been caught for what they did to Rosalie and Mindy. It’s possible there’s even more than one violent predator still at large, because there’s still no conclusive connection between their cases. Yet the similarities cannot be ignored.

• If you have information relating to the unsolved homicides of Mindy West or Rosalie Miller, please contact the New Hampshire State Police using the cold case unit tip form.

Stefanie Damron’s parents say that their 13-year-old daughter walked out the door and into the woods one September afternoon in 2024, and she hasn’t been seen or heard from since. They have their own suspicions about what happened to her, but so far, a multi-agency effort hasn’t been able to prove what happened to Stefanie more than a year later.

Active missing persons cases are some of the most challenging cases to cover. At the same time, active missing persons cases, especially when a child is missing under suspicious or concerning circumstances, are the cases that need the most urgent attention. Uncovering information while leads are still warm is critical.

That’s why I’m releasing two episodes today. These two missing persons cases out of Maine need a signal boost in a big way. So please, listen, share, and get their names and faces out there. Investigators need more information to bring them home.

• Stefanie was last seen wearing blue jeans, a long-sleeved blue shirt, and black Harley Davidson hiking boots. She is a white female, 13 years old at the time she was reported missing, with brown shoulder-length hair, green eyes, 5 feet tall, and 130 pounds.
• If you have information about the disappearance of Stefanie Damron, please contact the Maine State Police Houlton Barracks at (207) 532-5400 or call the FBI’s toll-free tipline at 1 (800)-CALL-FBI. You can also submit a tip via the FBI form.
• The FBI is offering a $15,000 reward for information leading to the safe return of Stefanie Damron and/or information leading to the arrest and prosecution of anyone involved in her disappearance.

In early 2023, pleas for help reached the small Aroostook County town of Washburn, Maine from across the world in Indonesia. Family members and friends of Attiin Rachmawati Shaw hadn’t heard from her in over a year and the stories they were told about her suspicious disappearance didn’t make any sense.

If you look at your feed right now, you’ll see two episodes released on the same day. Both of the Maine missing persons cases I’m covering are in need of some major attention because the investigations are active and ongoing. Getting these names and photos circulating in the public could bring in the leads that investigators need to make progress.

• According to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System, Attiin was 33-years old when she disappeared. She is 4-foot-7 inches tall and 110 pounds with Black hair and a noticeable birthmark on the top center of her nose.
• If you have any information relating to the disappearance of Attiin Shaw, please contact Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit North at (207) 532-5400 or submit a tip online.
