Both of the following links are threads on the New Boston Police Police Facebook page and there are many comments on both threads. The police are responding in the comments to some of the posters. I believe that KW posting on first thread is his wife and other family members are also posting.

I came here because I have been following Devins case from the beginning. I live in New England and have just been baffled by this case. I wish there was more discussion to read but from everything I can put together IMOO I think he wandered off into the woods. I hope his family gets some answers soon, his poor wife I feel so bad for her.
 
There's not much in New Boston other than the Space Force. It says he went to college in Manchester. Maybe Lang Station is a place he and his friends used to go hang out? It's not far from Manchester at all. Otherwise, it's a really random location to stumble upon.

I do too.... but i know they have searched extensively....
Nothing makes sense on this case.
And his wife's continued messages on FB are just hearbreaking.

Unless you live there, it is hard to realize just how small the NE states are. His residence is only 20 miles from the convenience store in Keene NH. New Boston. another 40 miles towards Manchester.

I know they searched long and hard in New Boston....
I just keep thinking, did someone pick him up in New Boston...

I live here in NH. New Boston isn't a place people say "hey, let's go hang out in New Boston today". I've lived in NH for 18 years and I've never heard of the hiking trail his car was found at. That's why I wonder if it had been a place he went in college. Maybe reach out to some old friends and see if they had a spot?
 
Mr. Whitham has been confirmed as found deceased.
