Sean D. Conway was 27 when his body was found in a wooded area of Newfield, Maine, on January 23, 1991. He had last been seen a week earlier, on the evening of January 16, at a residence and motorcycle shop in nearby Cornish, where he had been visiting acquaintances and reportedly involved in the sale of handguns. Witnesses said he left the shop on foot around 9:30 p.m., allegedly to buy beer, and never returned.

Because the body was discovered a considerable distance from where Conway was last seen, and because investigators classified the death as a homicide, the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit opened a long-running investigation. Authorities interviewed multiple people over the years and considered several individuals potential suspects, but no arrest has been announced and police have not released the specific cause of death.

Conway’s family continues to seek answers. If anyone has information about his movements in Cornish or Newfield in January 1991, please come forward.
