State Patrol Asks For Help From The Public In Missing Persons Case

Lincoln, NE (March 18, 2022) The Nebraska State Patrol begins a search today (3/24) for a Fairbury woman who went missing last June in southeast Nebraska.

Linda Dillard was last seen near Table Rock in Pawnee County on June 16, 2021. The search will focus around the Table Rock State Wildlife Management Area through Saturday, if necessary.

NSP investigators said Dillard may have been a victim of a crime of “theft, assault, kidnapping, and/or murder.”

Dillard joined friends in Pawnee County in mid-June, where they drank and smoked meth at a farmstead.

After a search of the property, a wig belonging to Dillard was found as well as her clothing.

Dillard was last seen wearing a black t-shirt, black DKNY boxer brief shorts, and brown Birkenstock type sandals. Dillard is described as a white female, 5’0”, 130 lbs., with blue eyes and brown hair (possibly dyed or wearing a wig).
