WEST PARIS – Police say two men found dead at a remote house over the weekend were shot to death.

Timothy Mayberry, 50, and Todd Smith, 43, died of multiple gunshot wounds, the State Medical Examiner’s Office said Tuesday. No one had been arrested in the case as of Tuesday night.

“We have interviewed a number of people and we will continue to do that to learn as much as possible,” said Stephen McCausland, spokesman for the Maine Department of Public Safety. “And now our focus is to find who or whomever is responsible for the deaths of these two men.”

McCausland said police have recovered “a great deal of evidence” from Mayberry’s residence, and much of it will be processed at the state’s crime lab.

He said he could not release information on suspects, the type of weapon used or where the men were shot.

A passing motorist spotted Mayberry’s body Saturday outside his house at 89 Tuelltown Road. Smith, of South Paris, was found dead inside the house. Mayberry, who owned a painting business, is believed to be a friend and sometime employer of Smith.

A Sumner house searched by police Monday in connection with the killings was still marked off as a crime scene on Tuesday. The Evidence Response Team of the state police Criminal Investigation Division was searching the house.

The property is owned by Duane and Naomi Waterman, both 32, according to a clerk at the Sumner Town Office and court records.

Duane Waterman was questioned by police but later released, McCausland said. A 1993 Jeep Cherokee registered to the Watermans was seized Monday as part of the investigation.

According to court records, Duane Waterman was convicted in 1994 in Oxford County of burglary and theft, and of possession of a firearm by a prohibited person in 2003.
