***Norwich man accused of murder appears in court

NEW LONDON – The lawyers for a 56-year old Norwich man accused of shooting his wife over Labor Day weekend said Tuesday in New London Superior Court that they are waiting for the state to finish reviewing testimony for a probable cause hearing.

James F. Hodgdon Jr., of 6 Forest View Drive, is charged with murder in the Sept. 7 shooting death of his wife, Dianna, at the couple’s Forest View Drive condominium.

Supervisory Assistant State’s Attorney Lawrence J. Tytla, a prosecutor on the case, said the state is waiting for discovery to review testimony for a probable causing hearing.

In addressing Hodgdon, Judge Hillary B. Strackbein said they aren’t waiving the hearing, but are giving the prosecutor and defense attorneys time to review materials. Defense attorney Fred M. DeCaprio is representing Hodgdon.\

Hodgdon is scheduled to appear in court again on Dec. 8.

On Sept. 7, Norwich Police responded to a 911 call from Hodgdon at 8:09 p.m., in which he stated he shot his wife and she was dead. When they arrived they found Hodgdon near the open garage door to his condo unit. Hodgdon told police she was shot during a fight as the pair struggled over a shotgun.

Interviewed at the scene by police, Hodgdon told police he was arguing with his wife and she intentionally pulled over his motorcycle, causing it to fall onto the ground, in an attempt to damage it.

The shooting, Hodgdon told police, came after a day of arguing with his wife.

Hodgdon said he had gone to his garage Monday evening to get his shotgun and kill himself, according to the police report.

As he sat with the gun, he called his supervisor at Millstone Nuclear Power Station, where he has worked as a security guard for 26 years, and told the person if he didn’t show up at work there were letters in his locker to be sent out to those addressed. He also posted a goodbye message on Facebook, according to the report.

The police report also says Hodgdon said his wife came downstairs into the garage and “began to belittle him by calling him names.”

He told police he then put the gun down and went into a furnace room toward the front of the garage to get an overnight bag to leave. He then heard his wife “in the garage slamming the shotgun on the ground,” returned to the garage and told her to stop, and that the gun was loaded.

He then grabbed onto the shotgun and she pulled the gun with both hands from the barrel end, according to the report. He told police he pulled back, put his finger on the trigger and pulled it.

His wife then fell back onto boxes next to a refrigerator, he said.

Hodgdon told police he pulled the trigger “because of the stress and panic Dianna caused him.”

This is in my home town with a population of 1500 people.  The family lives about a mile from me. The state is so broke the state police murder investigators and murder prosecutor don't got enough money to complete the investigation. It is still a open case.   

***Man dies after being shot in Hinsdale NH

UPDATED 5:48 PM EDT Oct 14, 2013  

Investigators say man apparently shot during family dispute

HINSDALE, N.H. —A shooting death in Hinsdale is being treated as a homicide, but so far, police have not made any arrests.

Investigators said the shooting may have been the result of a family dispute. Dustin Curtiss, 26, died after he was shot at least three times, officials said.

Neighbors said they watched Curtiss grow up on High Street and were proud of him when he enlisted in the Marines and went on to marry and have daughter.

"I used to watch Dustin play soccer because of my grandsons," said neighbor Richard Hood. "One was a year ahead, and one was a year behind. They all played on the same team."

Investigators said shots were fired inside 68 High St. about 10:15 p.m. Sunday. They are calling the incident a family dispute that ended in homicide.

"You can see we have the crime scene van here, and we're taking a look through the house," said Assistant Attorney General Geoffrey Ward. "It's ongoing. We're looking into exactly what went on here last night."

Curtiss was pronounced dead after he was transferred from a Vermont hospital to UMass Medical Center in Worcester, Mass.

"At this point, we're inside 24 hours of this," Ward said. "We're talking to everybody, which is really the most I can say at this point into everything that happened that night."

Neighbors say Curtiss' father, Mark Curtiss, works at Vermont Yankee, and his mother is a nurse. Mark Curtiss is also a volunteer firefighter and has acted as the town's dog catcher.

Investigators said there would likely be no further updates on the case Monday.
