The Still Unsolved Murder of Darien Richardson (Maine)

MAINE, 2010: In January of 2023, yet another year passed without justice for Darien Richardson and her family.

You first heard Darien Richardson’s story on Dark Downeast in August of 2021. Since then, I’ve stayed in touch with Darien’s mother, Judi, and this case is one I keep coming back to, especially now that I’ve become a mother to a daughter.

I’ve decided to re-release Darien’s story as an extended episode in hopes of furthering the Richardson family’s fight for answers, to support their advocacy for responsible gun laws, as well as bring awareness to their mission of helping those impacted by violent crime.

To support Darien and her family, download the reward poster and share it on social media. You can also make a donation to Remembering Darien, the organization founded by Darien’s parents in her honor to help innocent victims of violent crimes heal and rebuild their lives in the aftermath of incomprehensible violence.The $15,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and indictment of the person responsible for Darien Richardson’s death still stands. As the ethical true crime content consumer that I know you are, share her story, say her name, and support this family’s fight for justice.
