Unsolved Ludlow Lake Teen Murder Hints at Clues Found
Metal detector sweeps at Ludlow Lake yielded beer cans, a rusted pipe wrench, wire, farm implement pieces, and about a dollar in change. A 1939 commemorative dime and buffalo nickel were among the coins found, but none advanced the investigation into Julie Widgeon’s death. Two trees with her initials were cut, but the probe remains unproductive. Sheriff Grant notes possible informants may still hold critical information.
