Investigators continue to sift through a mountain of garbage for evidence in the case of a missing Essex couple.
A team of FBI and state police specialists rolled into the Casella Waste landfill in Coventry over three weeks ago. They are digging through tons of trash in hopes of solving the disappearance of Bill and Lorraine Currier. The Essex couple disappeared nearly a year ago.
Police won't say whether they believe the Curriers' bodies are in the landfill, but it's believed this search stems from an earlier search at the site of a demolished home in Essex. Debris from that home would have been dumped in Coventry.
The U.S. Attorney won't say what, if anything, they've found in the landfill but he expects the digging will continue for at least a couple of more weeks.
