By Tom Stanton Mar 28, 2022 | 11:19 AM

The Nebraska State Patrol completed a three-day search operation in and around Table Rock State Wildlife Management Area without finding the remains of Linda Dillard, who has been missing since last June.

NSP says although the search effort did not locate Dillard’s remains, significant ground was covered that will assist in the investigation.

“What our investigators learned this week directs the case into the next phase,” says NSP Lt. Eric Jones.  “We are now confident that Linda is not in this large area. Our investigators continue to believe Linda may have been the victim of a crime. We urge anyone with information or anyone who was involved in her disappearance to come forward.”

Numerous tips have been received through Nebraska Crime Stoppers and other avenues in recent days. Nebraska Crime Stoppers continues to offer a reward for information in this investigation. Tips can be made anonymously through Nebraska Crime Stoppers via the Nebraska Crime Stoppers website, the “P3 Tips” mobile app, or by calling 1-800-422-1494.

Throughout the three-day operation, teams searched more than 1,100 acres of land in and around the Table Rock State Wildlife Management Area, 24 miles of roadside ditches, 1.5 miles of river, 2 local farms, and a local lake area. The search team consisted of 44 law enforcement officers, 65 volunteers and support personnel, 15 mounted patrol teams, and 8 dog teams trained for human remains detection.

“We’d like to thank our partners in this week’s operation,” said Lt. Jones. “This large effort would not have been possible without their assistance.”
