Philip Fournier Held Without Bail in 1980 Maine Killing

BANGOR, Maine _ Philip Scott Fournier is being held without bail after his first court appearance following his arrest in connection with the death of an East Millinocket girl more than 35 years ago.

State Police say the 55-year-old Fournier killed 16-year-old Joyce McLain, who had disappeared in 1980 while jogging. Her body was found two days later behind a school in her hometown.

Fournier was arraigned Monday at the Penobscot Judicial Center in Bangor. A judge ordered him held without bail pending a hearing that was not scheduled.

Fournier did not enter a plea during the brief appearance.

He was previously identified as a person of interest in the homicide when he was sentenced in 2009 to 6{ years in prison for possession of child pornography. He was released last year.
