In a continuing effort to shed light on even the smallest pieces of information, the New Hampshire Attorney General has released a number of documents pertaining to the Maura Murray case that, until now, had never been seen by the public.

The information was released in response to a Right-to-Know request from Express Publisher Josh Cutler. The Right-to-Know law is the New Hampshire version of Massachusetts's public records law. Until this point, many of the documents had only been seen by Maura's father, Fred Murray.

The information includes the police report of an Hadley Accident Report, Massachusetts, the day before she disappeared.

At 3:30 a.m., according to the Hadley police, Maura crashed her father's 2004 Toyota Corolla at the intersection of North Maple Street and North Hadley Road. Officer Mark Ruddock took the report.

"Due to operator inattention she went through the 't' intersection and struck the snow bank and guard rail," reads Ruddock's report.

Maura's car was towed and she was given a ride to a local motel.

Maura was not cited by police in the accident, but there has been some speculation that this crash may have upset her and led to her wanting to get away to New Hampshire -- although Fred Murray told the Express he was not angry about the crash.
