Webster Plantation is among the smallest communities in Maine, if not the country. With a population of about 80, the two-road town has fewer residents than a New York subway car during rush hour.
It’s so tiny that Stephen McCausland, spokesman for the Maine State Police, didn’t even know it existed until a few days ago.
“Frankly, before Sunday, I’ve never heard of it,” he said. “It’s that remote, and it’s that small.”
That small-town ambiance was shattered last weekend when authorities discovered the bodies of a couple, who were known by many in the community.
An investigation is ongoing, and authorities say there are no suspects.
Situated near the center of the state, Webster Plantation is a throwback to a bygone era. Violent crime is rare in the rural farming area.
“This is one of those places where everybody left cars unlocked and keys in the vehicle,” said Bob Jacobs, owner of the Millstream Grocery.
Police have released few details about the crime.
