my hometown in Maine...
Neighbors had long wondered whether something might have happened to the woman with the distinctive, wild red hair who lived alone in a tidy white mobile home not far off Route 109.
What no one knew until Friday was that she had been dead for as long as 2˝ years.
Mail had been piling up for so long that the post office began returning it to senders. Property taxes went unpaid to the point where a lien had been placed on the home and foreclosure proceedings were imminent. Neighbors who knocked on the door never got an answer.
Although Wells police went to McNulty’s mobile home on Atkins Lane several times to conduct welfare checks, it wasn’t until Friday that they finally entered and found her body in the bedroom.
“It is a sad situation,” Wells police Lt. Gerald Congdon said Wednesday. “She was the type of person to always have her shades down and her curtains drawn. She was very much a loner.”
