BREAKING: Bodies of missing McDonald County couple found

Authorities say the couple’s small white poodle is still missing as investigators search for clues in the deaths of Leo and Katherine Lindeman.

  • On Sunday, authorities discovered the bodies of Leo Lindeman, 73, and Katherine Lindeman, 74, on a neighbor's property in Anderson, Missouri, ending a month-long search for the missing couple.
  • The couple was last seen September 15; they were reported missing nine days later after a neighbor discovered their home's doors and windows open with no sign of occupants.
  • McDonald County Sheriff Rob Evenson said the bodies were found "about 400 to 500 yards from the Lindeman's home," though the couple's small poodle, Itty Bitty, has not yet been located.
  • Investigators previously executed search warrants and sent the couple's laptop to a computer lab for examination; Evenson described the investigation as "frustrating" due to lack of solid leads.
  • Authorities previously searched approximately 15 acres of surrounding property, but the cause of death remains unclear as investigators continue examining evidence and awaiting results from multiple search warrants.
