Sarah Hajney was 16 when she vanished from McLean, New York, on October 4, 1996, while house-sitting at her parents’ home with her 16-year-old friend Jennifer Bolduc. Both girls failed to attend school that morning and were reported missing by family members. Sarah’s father’s car was later found abandoned, a detail that early on suggested something criminal had occurred.

Investigators focused on neighbor John B. Andrews, who had a criminal history. Authorities say Andrews abducted the teenagers, took them to a remote cabin, and subjected them to violent assaults before killing them. Their bodies were dismembered and scattered across multiple counties in upstate New York; partial remains were recovered. Andrews was arrested and indicted on multiple counts, including murder, kidnapping, and aggravated sexual abuse, but died by suicide in his jail cell on November 2, 1996, before trial.

The deaths of Sarah and Jennifer deeply affected the nearby town of Dryden. Partial remains were recovered and the case is described as a homicide; it is technically still open. Does anyone who knew Sarah or Jennifer have information that could help clarify unanswered details?
