Pulling a NH State "Dilapidated Hinsdale Bridge" on The Murder of Dustin Curtiss?

Manchester to hire 5 more officers


MANCHESTER — The police department will be hiring five additional officers in the coming weeks, a fraction of the number the city's police chief says are needed to deal with rising crime.

Mayor Ted Gatsas announced the plan at Tuesday's meeting of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen, following a presentation in which Police Chief David Mara outlined his request for additional officers.

Mara said, based on a recent workload assessment, that he believed the force needed 26 more officers in the patrol division and four more in the street crime unit, which consists of plainclothes officers who deal with quality of life issues.
At a projected cost of $84,000 per officer, for salary and benefits, funding the chief's maximum request would cost approximately $2.4 million.

The presentation marked the first time that Mara made his staffing request explicit since new numbers confirmed that crime has surged over the past year, increasing 24 percent in 2013 over the previous year, led by a 46 percent jump in robberies.

Gatsas and most of the aldermen at Tuesday's meeting were more concerned about how to pay for a smaller number of additional officers immediately than in dealing with Mara's maximum request, which likely could only be addressed through the budget process for the next fiscal year
You think, the state thinks they won't be spending money wisely prosecuting this Hinsdale murder case of a war hero in a low population area? Cherry pick the easy and winable cases...

Hometown prosecutor gets paid, and now awarded, for doing ‘the right thing’
For nearly a decade, Jeffery Strelzin has been the state’s legal point man on some of its most unsettling crimes. As the chief of the Department of Justice’s homicide unit, Strelzin, a senior assistant attorney general, is the first person police officials contact when investigating suspicious deaths. He has prosecuted several high-profile cases, including that of convicted cop killer Michael Addison and of Christopher Gribble and Steven Spader, the young pair found guilty of brutally murdering a Mont Vernon mother in her home in 2009.

It’s a demanding job, made increasingly so in recent years as budgets have contracted. But Strelzin, who is the state’s longest-serving homicide chief, seems to find more pride than stress in the work.

Violent crime in Manchester up in 2013

By MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader

MANCHESTER — Violent crimes reported to police increased by 24 percent in Manchester in 2013 over the previous year, led by a 46 percent jump in robberies.
The 736 reported violent crimes — comprised of murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault — topped the previous two years, each of which saw 593 such reported crimes, according to Manchester Police Department figures released to the New Hampshire Union Leader.
Police Chief David Mara said much of the city's crime is traced to the need for money to buy illegal drugs...

Just saying, bet you an enormous amount of the crime in NH is generated by the heroin and other opiates crisis. So the major crimes unit and the state prosecutors departments are terribly underfunded. Then we got a runaway addiction problem leading to major crimes overwhelming our courts, prosecutors and major crimes, beside the historic issues with the state policing. This is all driven by a penny pitching state ideology of limited state government....like I said; our 1921 route 119 dilapidated bridge is a symbol of the ideology of limited state government and out addiction to our generalized hatred of government. What does these institutions look when they become overwhelmed...

We are just putting this on the backs of our children and grandchildren who are mostly in deep financial trouble as it is. We are building up a generation of lost souls...this is going to be so costly in the future
 

I just think a number of our children see no hope in the future...so why even have a good standard of behavior.

No one sets out to die a heroin junkie.

The highly addictive narcotic is a drug of last resort for addicts who can never be sure of its potency or purity, but either graduated to it after abusing other street drugs or turned to it as a cheap alternative to prescription painkillers they no longer can afford, according to law enforcers.

Its use is on the rise statewide, as seen when heroin for the first time became the top killer of all drug overdoses in 2012. It was responsible for 38 of the 164 drug deaths that year.

The number of people who died from heroin in 2013 already shows a 50 percent increase and could go higher once all pending cases are closed. So far, heroin is responsible for 57 drug deaths in 2013, a year when authorities expect the total deaths will reach 200.

"It's a huge problem," said Dr. Thomas Andrew, the state's chief medical examiner.

Andrew said the number of total unintended drug deaths rose 400 percent from the 53 recorded when he started as medical examiner in 1997.

Serious issue

Speaking from a personal point of view as a physician, Andrew described the situation as a "public health crisis," but isn't sure the "social will" exists to really attack it.

"Are we going to decide as citizens that it is worth going after this problem in an aggressive way, or are we willing to write off these people as not worth the effort?" he asked.

"Are these really acceptable losses to us? ... In the end, every one of these cases is someone's son or daughter or sister or brother.

Attorney General Joseph Foster says his office needs five to 10 additional attorneys over the next several years. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER COURTESY)
Early last week, state prosecutor James T. Boffetti was heading off to Brentwood where he has been filling in as Rockingham County Attorney since James Reams was stripped of his prosecutorial duties pending a criminal probe.
Then it was back to Concord to resume his normal duties as head of the state's Consumer Protection and Anti-Trust division. Waiting for him was the escalating and potentially life-threatening Fred Fuller Oil & Propane Co. debacle that left hundreds of residents with empty or near empty home heating oil tanks during an arctic blast of sub-zero weather
At about the same time, a 2009 video of three Seabrook police officers slamming a drunken driving defendant into a wall and pepper spraying him while in custody went viral on YouTube, prompting the New Hampshire Attorney General's criminal bureau to reassign investigators from existing criminal cases to launch a public integrity probe of the officers involved.
More staff needed
In a department whose most high-profile unit — homicide — just came off one of its busiest years in recent memory, these and other cases have further strained the office's 58 staff attorneys - a number that barely budged since the early 1980s. It's a point Attorney General Joseph A. Foster has publicly pounced on since taking office last May as reason why he will ask for another five to 10 attorneys over the next several state budget cycles.
"I think we are unusually busy. They (staff) have gone through cycles like that before," Foster explained.
"We work hard and buckle down and get the work done - perhaps at a slower pace than we would like, but they will get the work done, and they will do it right," he added.
Prosecutors cope by reshuffling priorities — a practice they call triage — with the emphasis given to cases involving public safety and meeting deadlines in pending court cases, Foster and Deputy Attorney General Ann Rice explained.

Former Attorney General Michael A. Delaney said this is one of the office's strengths."There are a lot of major, pending investigations right now and I think that office has always done an incredible job of handling some of the most important investigations in the state with limited resources," said Delaney, who served as attorney general for four years before he chose not seek reappointment last spring.

Given the first two weeks in a homicide case are the most critical, they get top priority. No matter what else is going on at the time, two prosecutors immediately are assigned to work with local and state police agencies on each homicide, Senior Assistant Attorney General Jeffery A. Strelzin said Friday.

"This is definitely one of the busiest years we've had in my time in the office," Strelzin said of the 25 homicides in 2013. Strelzin has been in the office 13 years and heads the homicide bureau. The state averages 19 homicides a year.
Until the case is finally over, the work doesn't go away. A case typically takes one to two years to prosecute so you have a constant backlog of cases. However busy your prior year was, coming into your next year you know you will probably have 20 new (homicides)," he explained.
Added paperwork
In addition, the office must respond to an increasing number of habeas petitions filed by convicted defendants seeking new trials and works on 150 active state and federal appeals a year, he said. They include the capital murder and death penalty appeal of Michael K. Addison which prosecutors have been working on since a Manchester police officer was killed in 2006 and likely will continue another 15 years, Strelzin said.

In addition, the criminal division handles several high-profile cases that have consumed enormous state, local and federal resources. They include that of missing Conway teen Abigail Hernandez, which remains an active and ongoing probe since her disappearance in October. The office also is working with the Hillsborough County Attorney's office in a criminal investigation of how a Manchester man became paralyzed with a broken neck suffered sometime after he entered Elliot Hospital emergency room to his being taken into custody by Manchester police and Hillsborough County Department of Corrections in October.


Prosecutors said it was not possible to give a precise number of total cases the office handles.

The onslaught of new cases since late fall has contributed to the delay in completing the investigation of the officer-involved fatal shooting of a suspected drug dealer in Weare last August, Foster said. Foster previously said he hoped to have the preliminary finding complete by the end of November.


But a Nov. 24 double fatal shooting of two men in Manchester and the Dec. 7 deaths of a Vermont couple on Interstate 89 in Lebanon by a man authorities alleged deliberately caused the collision in a failed suicide attempt diverted staff from the Weare case, he said.


"That's one of the problems. Every time one of these major issues come up, we all get pulled off to work on a new fire," Rice said.


Constant reshuffling

Not only have state prosecutors handling the case been diverted to other homicides, but the state police investigators working the case also were assigned to the newly-breaking homicides, prosecutors said.

Rice said the Weare officer-involved shooting investigation has taken "longer than most of the office-involved shootings that we have been involved in certainly. Without commenting on the substance of the case, I can say it's a complex issue."

Foster would not comment on when he expects the report to be ready.

Former Attorney General Delaney noted New Hampshire is one of the few states in the country that requires each of its law enforcement officers to undergo the same basic core certification training at the state Police Standards and Training Academy before they hit the streets.

"It's excellent training. And that is just the starting point. All of the agencies have their officers involved in regular training above that," Delaney said.

FBI's New England chief worried about budget

Posted: 10/28/2013 05:00:26 PM EDT | Updated: about 4 hours ago

PORTLAND, Maine (AP)- The FBI's Boston chief has a lot to worry about between terrorism, conventional crime and intelligence gathering. But these days, one of his biggest concerns is his budget.
Vincent Lisi, special agent in charge for Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, told reporters in Portland on Monday that one of his biggest challenges is dealing with the mandatory budget cuts known as sequestration. He said the cuts amount to $700 million of the national FBI budget this year.

He said vacant positions aren't being filled and training has been slashed. He said it could be a few years before any new field agents are hired.

Instead of doing "more with less," the FBI is performing threat assessments and prioritizing its most important duties as it becomes accustomed to doing "less with less," Lisi said.

"It's doing less with less," he said. "You can't keep doing more with less. Otherwise, you'll end up being a mile wide and an inch deep."

NH to add 10 troopers
State budget includes $723K for new officers
By John Toolejtoole@eagletribune.com
More state troopers are coming soon to New Hampshire highways.
Early next year, drivers on Interstate 93 should notice an increased presence, as will those on highways in remote parts of the state.
State police are actively recruiting for the 10 new positions Gov. Maggie Hassan and the Legislature authorized under the recently passed budget. The state budgeted $723,384 for salary and benefits for the new troopers.
The new budget provides for 343 troopers. There were 333 slots before, with 12 current vacancies due to retirements or other departures. The agency also must manage with troopers on leave for military service

CONCORD — The New Hampshire attorney general's homicide bureau investigated 25 new cases in 2013, two of which have yet to yield arrests.

The state had 19 homicides in 2012 and 25 homicides in 2011, according to Senior Assistant Attorney General Jeffery A. Strelzin, the chief of the homicide unit.

About 36 percent of the cases were related to domestic violence. That is lower than the historical average, over more than 40 years, of around 50 percent. Other points from 2013 files, according to Strelzin, include:


• There were three fatal officer-involved incidents. There were two such incidents in 2012, and five officer-involved fatals in 2011.

• The state saw four double murders in 2013, which is more than what is usually recorded.

• The state is seeing more cases involving defendants making competency claims and insanity defenses.

Keene: David Wheelock, 48, of Keene, was shot multiple times and died Dec. 21 in his Keene residence. No arrests made. The state continues to investigate the homicide and ask for anyone with information about the shooting to call police.

Manchester: Two men die after a shooting at 331 Lake Ave. in Manchester on Nov. 24. Police said Edgar "Eddie" Hoffens, 22, of Manchester, died at the scene. Charles Cable, 20, of Manchester, died later at the Elliot Hospital. No charges brought to date.

Hinsdale: Dustin Curtiss, 26, of Hinsdale, was shot multiple times in the torso and upper extremities Oct. 13 during an apparent family dispute that turned violent. No one was arrested in connection with the incident, which remains under investigation.

Hampton: Robert Roderick, 56, died Oct. 3 after an assault in Hampton. Authorities charged Peter Bartoloni, 70, with second-degree murder for allegedly beating his roommate with a sledgehammer.

Manchester: Wendy M. Lawrence, 45, of Canterbury, was fatally wounded in an officer-involved shooting in Manchester on Sept. 30. A state trooper pulled her over while driving south on Interstate 89 and confirmed she was a habitual offender with a suspended license. Lawrence drove off, speeding toward Concord, and onto I-93 and into Manchester, where troopers attempted to stop her at an intersection. A trooper fired at the vehicle, hitting Lawrence. She was taken to Elliot Hospital where she was pronounced dead. Attorney General Joseph Foster determined it was a justified use of force.

Weare: Alex Cora DeJesus, 35, died from gunshot wounds in an officer-involved shooting in Weare as officers attempted to apprehend him in connection with a drug deal investigation Aug. 14.

Manchester: Muni Savyon, 54, of Manchester, shot his 9-year-old son Joshua with a handgun several times during a visitation at the YWCA at 72 Concord St., Manchester on Aug. 11. He then shot and killed himself.

Nashua: Two adults are found dead at their home at 17 Middle Dunstable Road in Nashua. Reginal Danboise, 67, killed himself by hanging after stabbing his wife, Mary L. Danboise, 63, to death.

Charlestown: Kelly Robarge, 42, of 124 Happy Acres Road, Charlestown, is reported missing and then found dead. James R. Robarge, 43, of Charlestown, is charged with reckless second-degree murder in the death of his wife on June 27.

Nashua: William Grant, 83, and his wife, Eleanor Grant, 78, are found dead in their Nashua home on June 17. An autopsy reveals death by stabbing. No arrests are made in the case, but investigators conclude evidence suggested Shawn Burne, 37, who died of an overdose Aug. 22, killed the couple during a robbery.

Somersworth: Noah York, a 2-year-old boy from Somersworth, is pronounced dead at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital in Dover on June 14. An autopsy reveals death by smothering. Authorities charged Jared Pope, 30, of Somersworth, with manslaughter.

Laconia: Zachary March, 27, of 24 McGrath St., in Laconia, is found dead June 10. Authorities charge Kasey Riley, 19, of Laconia, with second-degree murder by strangling.

Manchester: Michael Larocque Jr., 24, of Manchester, dies from a gunshot wound at an apartment on Lake Avenue in Manchester. The resident in the apartment said he armed himself after hearing unknown people outside his apartment at 2:43 a.m. Shortly thereafter, the man's apartment door was kicked open and two unknown men rushed inside and charged him. The resident fired his gun several times during the break-in, killing one of the intruders, the man identified as Larocque. The Attorney General's office concludes it is a justified use of force.

Belmont: Priscilla Carter, 59, of 20 Sunset Drive in Belmont, and her son, Timothy Carter, 39, of the same address, are found dead from multiple chop wounds and blunt-force injuries on May 24. On July 9, Shawne Carter, 31, of Belmont, is charged in the death of his mother and brother.

Manchester: Mark Donnelly, 31, a father of two from Manchester, was killed in a drive-by shooting in the area of Pine and Prospect streets in Manchester on May 18. He died from a single gunshot wound to the chest. The shooting occurred after an argument with a man, witnesses said. No arrests have been made and the case remains under investigation.

Manchester: Michelle Hogarty, 46, found dead in her home at 316 Mammoth Road in Manchester on May 1. Her husband, John Hogarty, 55, is charged with first-degree murder in her stabbing death.

Walpole: Larry Albert Bohannon, 51, with a last known address of Grafton, died from gunshots to the head and chest March 29 after police officers pursued him in connection with a Vermont armed robbery. The attorney general determined it was a justified use of force.

Exeter: Amanda "Amy" Warf, 36, of Hampton, is found dead in an abandoned building in Exeter on March 7. Aaron Desjardins, 36, of 67 Railroad Ave., Epping, is charged with first-degree murder in his ex-wife's death. Sarah Desjardins, 34, of 67 Railroad Ave., Epping, is charged with conspiracy to commit murder and hindering apprehension in connection with the case.

Littleton: Catherine "Kitty" Houghton, 70, is found murdered in Littleton on Jan. 28. Rodney Hill, 37, of West Danville, Vt., was charged in her murder.

Nashua: Judith Rolfe, 66, died Jan. 19 from multiple blunt impact injuries to the head. Duane Rolfe, 65, her brother, was arrested and charged with second-degree murder.

The Attorney General's office is also prosecuting two counts of second-degree murder against Robert Dellinger, 53, of Sunapee, in the deaths of Amanda Murphy, 24, and Jason Timmons, 29, of 35 Fern St., Wilder, Vt., on Dec. 7. He is accused of knowingly driving his truck across the median on Interstate 89 in Lebanon in an attempt to kill himself and crashing into the couple. Murphy was also eight-months pregnant.

The New Hampshire Attorney General's office continued to investigate and prosecute older homicides. On July 14, 2013, there was an arrest in the homicide of Daniel Langlois, 25, a Manchester man who was shot Dec. 27, 2012. Jesus "Scoobie" Fernandez, 27, of Manchester, was charged with second-degree murder. And, in June 2013, the state brought charges against Thomas Milton, 30, and William Edic, 31, in the death of Anthony Renzzulla, 44, who was attacked in state prison in Concord in 2010. Renzzulla died from his injuries on Nov. 26, 2011.
