Heartfelt stories
Born on August 2, 1983, Molly Ann Bish is a sixteen-year-old American girl who disappeared while working as a lifeguard in Warren, Massachusetts.
Molly's disappearance
Molly Bish, 16, began working as a lifeguard at Comins Pond in Warren, Massachusetts, in the summer of 2000. Bish's mother, Magi, saw a man with a mustache in a white car parked on the beach where Bish's lifeguard stand was located. She disappeared on June 26.
He seemed strange at the time, but she didn't think much of him until Bish disappeared.
On June 27, Magee took her child out of the lifeguard station near Comins Pond. Maggie stated that there was no sign of the stranger or his white vehicle from the previous day. However, minutes before Bish arrived, another witness said he saw a man matching the stranger's description in the pond's parking lot.
Who killed Molly?
A local worker also reported seeing a similar car parked in a cemetery with a path leading to the pond. Before she disappeared, Magi Bish was the last person to see her daughter.
Molly Bish's parents contacted police hours later, informing them that a lifeguard had not been on duty all day and that Bish's belongings had been left unattended at her place.
The shocking discovery of her body
A thorough search was immediately carried out. It was the most extensive and expensive search for a missing person ever conducted in Massachusetts. Several American TV shows covered her story, including Missing, America's Most Wanted, Unsolved Mysteries and 48 Hours.
In the fall of 2002, a hunter found a blue bathing suit in the woods near Whiskey Hill in Palmer. He told Tim McGuigan about it in May 2003, who alerted the authorities. Bish's body was recovered after a thorough search of the area. Her body was found on June 9, 2003, 5 miles (8.0 km) from her family home.
Although a cause of death has not been determined, investigators believe Bish was murdered and her body buried.
Her body was not found for three years
A Connecticut resident was briefly investigated for the crime in 2005 when he was charged with attempted kidnapping.
A suspect was investigated in 2009. Florida resident Rodney Stanger, who was convicted of killing his girlfriend, has lived more than 20 years in Southbridge, Massachusetts, just a few miles from Warren. A year after Bish's murder, Rodney moved to Florida. Stanger's 20-year-old girlfriend, Crystal Morrison, was killed, and Morrison's sister contacted Massachusetts authorities.
Stanger was known to own a white car that looked similar to the car seen the day before Bish disappeared. He was also known to hunt in the woods where Bish's body was found.
Furthermore, Stanger matched Maggie Bish's description of the man seen in the white sedan the day Molly Bish disappeared. In her case, Stanger has not been charged.
Who Killed Bish Molly?
During the 2009 investigation into Bish's murder, police also questioned Stanger in connection with the 1993 murder of Holly Pierenen, who disappeared in Sturbridge. In 1993, Bish and Piirainen were the same age, and Bish wrote a letter of hope to Piirainen's parents. In this case, Stanger was not charged. David Pouliot, who died in 2003, was named by authorities as a person of interest in 2012 based on forensic evidence in connection with the Pieranen case.
Massachusetts private investigator Dan Malle listed Gerald Battistoni as a suspect in Bish's death in November 2011. In the early 1990s, Battistoni was sentenced to prison for repeatedly raping an underage girl. He attempted suicide in prison after media headlines made him a suspect in the deaths of Bish and Pieranen.
Battistoni, who has a criminal record dating back to 1980, was in the area where Bish's body was found and looks like the man Maggie spotted in the parking lot the day before Bish disappeared.
No arrests have been made and the person behind Molly's death is sadly still unknown.
