Melissa Tremblay: The Investigation (New)

1988 - Lawrence, Massachusetts.  Part one of two. On the afternoon of September, 12, 1988, a rail yard worker for B&M Railroad in Lawrence, MA made a horrifying discovery on the tracks: the body of 11-year-old Melissa Ann Tremblay who was missing from Salem, NH. Investigators quickly realized this was no train accident—that something more sinister happened to the young girl—and her killer tried to cover up his crime by staging the gruesome scene.  For decades the case was cold… until April of 2022, when a former corrections officer was arrested at his home in Alabama. Marvin “Skip” McClendon, Jr went to trial in December 2023… But did investigators get the right man? A lot has happened since the original Murder, She Told episode, but to get to the end, we have to start back at the beginning: This is a full story update on Melissa Tremblay featuring new interviews, exclusive court documents, and records. This is part 1 of the story of Melissa Tremblay. If you have any information at all on the murder of Melissa Tremblay, please contact the Lawrence Police Dept at 978-794-5900.
