Northfield, VT – Vermont State Police are renewing efforts to solve the decades-old homicide of Elwyn White, whose remains were discovered more than 20 years ago in Washington County.
According to Vermont State Police, White, 40, was reported missing by his roommate on Aug. 21, 2001. On May 1, 2002, a turkey hunter found his remains in a shallow grave off Berlin Pond Road in Northfield. Authorities later determined his death was a homicide.
The case remains unsolved, and investigators are once again appealing to the public for information. Detectives with the Major Crimes Unit say any details, no matter how small, could assist in bringing closure to the case.
White’s killing is among several long-standing cold cases still under review by Vermont State Police. Officials have encouraged residents to come forward with any knowledge related to his death or other unsolved homicides in the state.
Community members with tips are urged to contact the Major Crimes Unit directly. Investigators stressed that even information that may seem insignificant could help move the case forward.
