Linda Perkins: 我丈夫Ludger Belanger于1975年11月25日失踪，那天早上他去打猎，说一个半小时后回来接我去上班。这是我最后一次见到他。他为人守时可靠，如果他打伤了鹿，一定会追踪到找到它为止，不会轻易放弃。警方最初没有重视，要求等待72小时才能报案，这让我非常痛苦和绝望。多年来，我一直没有放弃寻找他，也和警方保持联系，但进展缓慢，我感到非常沮丧和无力。2020年，有人挖到一条疑似他穿过的裤子，我寄予厚望，但至今没有收到检测结果。我这么多年来一直活在痛苦和恐惧中，不仅为了我自己，也为了我的三个女儿和19个孙辈，我必须找到真相，让他得到应有的尊重和安息。 Narrator: Ludger Belanger于1975年11月25日失踪，案情扑朔迷离。调查人员发现了他的踪迹，他打到了一只鹿，并在雪地里拖着鹿走了一段路，之后上了别人的车。这辆车是1965年的别克，车内被清理干净，后座和车顶内衬部分缺失，车标上有一根鹿毛。警方找到了这辆车的主人David Svenningsen和他的朋友Danny Collins Jr.，但他们否认见过Ludger。David Svenningsen的家后来发生爆炸，他伤重不治身亡。几年后，Danny Collins Jr.的朋友Charles Christensen Jr.声称Collins承认枪杀了Ludger。警方对别克车进行了检测，但没有发现血液。尽管案件线索不断，但始终缺乏关键证据，导致案件长期悬而未决。Ludger的妻子Linda Perkins多年来一直坚持寻找丈夫，并积极参与缅因州冷案联盟的活动，希望能够找到真相，让丈夫得到安息。

MAINE MISSING PERSON, 1975: It was November 25, 1975 in Washington, Maine and Ludger Belanger stepped out into the freshly fallen snow, leaving deep boot prints as he disappeared into the woods in search of a buck. That was the last time his young wife Linda saw him, 46 years ago this year. But as the investigation revealed, it’s not the last time anyone saw him.

His name remains on the Maine Missing Persons list, but the details of Ludger Belanger’s disappearance point to much more than a man who walked into the woods and never walked out. Tracks in the snow tell stories that those involved won’t.

Linda Perkins continues the search for her husband and father of their three girls. She is on Dark Downeast to share his story.

This is Unsolved Missing Persons case of Ludger Belanger on Dark Downeast.
