Greenville, ME – Maine State Police are once again asking for the public’s help in solving a decades-old disappearance that has haunted the Greenville area since 1976. Attorney Joseph Bichrest, originally from Pennsylvania, vanished nearly 50 years ago, along with his jeep.
According to Maine State Police, investigators learned that a credit card in Bichrest’s name was used in Philadelphia two days after he went missing. However, neither Bichrest nor his vehicle has ever been located.
Authorities say anonymous reports over the years have suggested that Bichrest may have been murdered, with persistent rumors claiming that his jeep could be hidden in one of several quarries around Greenville. Despite multiple searches, no evidence has been found to confirm those claims.
State police are urging anyone with information to come forward. Tips can be submitted by calling (207) 973-3750 or through the Major Crimes Unit North online form at maine.gov.
