The Nebraska State Patrol is once again asking for the public's assistance in the 5-year-old case of the disappearance of 58-year-old Linda Dillard of Fairbury, who was last seen near Table Rock on June 16, 2021.

Volunteers and law enforcement conducted a large scale, three-day search near the Table Rock Wildlife Management Area in March of 2022.

Investigators say they are confident Dillard's remains were not in the area where she disappeared.

The State Patrol believes Dillard, who was reported missing four days after she was last seen, may have been the victim of a crime.

Search warrants filed in Lancaster and Pawnee counties indicate she may have been kidnapped or murdered.
