Christian Nielsen. The Quiet Guest. The Violent Weekend. | Hitched 2 Homicide

In September 2006, the quiet Black Bear Bed & Breakfast in Newry, Maine became the center of one of the state’s most disturbing murder cases. Over Labor Day weekend, Christian Charles Nielsen shot and killed four people: inn owner Julie Bullard, her daughter Selby Bullard, handyman James “Jimmy” Whitehurst, and Selby’s friend Cynthia “Cindy” Beatson. What began with a supposed fishing trip to Upton, Maine ended in a horrifying chain of murders at a peaceful mountain inn near Sunday River. Nielsen, a cook who had been living at the Black Bear B&B, later confessed to killing all four victims. Prosecutors said he gave no real motive—only chilling explanations that left investigators, families, and the community searching for answers. In this episode of Hitched 2 Homicide, we examine the Black Bear Bed & Breakfast murders, the relationships between the victims, Julie Bullard’s dream of starting over in Maine, the timeline of the Labor Day weekend killings, and the aftermath of one of Maine’s most shocking true crime cases. sources used for this podcast JOIN THE IN-LAWS AND OUTLAWS FOLLOW H2H ON INSTAGRAM FOLLOW H2H ON X Start Kris's Books today for FREE Christian Nielsen murders, Black Bear Bed and Breakfast murders, Black Bear B&B, Newry Maine murders, Maine true crime, Labor Day weekend murders, Julie Bullard, Selby Bullard, James Whitehurst, Jimmy Whitehurst, Cynthia Beatson, Cindy Beatson, Upton Maine murder, Sunday River Maine, Maine serial killer case, true crime podcast, Hitched 2 Homicide.
