I was referring to WN being incompetent.. which I understand is not mentally insane.. thanks.. I did find this as far as competency: NH RSA135:17 Competency; Commitment for Evaluation. – I. (a) When a person is charged or indicted for any offense, or is bound over by any district or...

I agree with you... reporters can only work with what they are given and the investigator is tight lipped. I am wondering why none of them traced down the ex-girlfriend... to find out the real status of case. Did she drop the charges after so long? Did she move? How long was he in the...

Took the following from your link. It was in various newspapers that WN checked himself in to a mental health facility. My granddaughter committed herself and she was in the hospital for 60 days, but that is because she wanted to leave. Conclusion The He-M 306 rule delineates a process...

That rule applies to involuntary admissions as far as I can see. WN voluntary submitted himself.

What does He stand for? I understand that NH laws are RSA's..

This is my new theory. If someone is involuntary committed to a mental health facility.. they can only stay there 10 days. If they voluntary committee themselves they can stay there until they are well or indefinitely. Also (I think this is so but not 100 percent sure).. A person who is in...

Found this on: http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Plea+of+temporary+insanity If this true, shouldn't WN have gone to trial? The insanity defense should not be confused with Incompetency. Persons who are incompetent to stand trial are held in a mental institution until they are...

What I heard also.. thanks

Does anyone know when WN and LCN was married?

What a tragic story. Did they know this kid? I live in NH and am on vacation, didn't see this until tonight. Prayers are with you.

Most of the time it is fun, but this past month has been nothing but meeting and all of them 3 hours long... Although the story is good.. the hard seats and other stuff that go on at the meetings are dry and boring... I'm not at the Jersey Shore where the VHI is made (although I lived...

No I am not doing reporting on this... I'm on vacation this week and at the Jersey Shore. I work for a weekly paper that is in the Dartmouth/Lake Sunapee area of NH. I live about 2 hours away from Stewartstown, and am currently working on a story regarding decisions made by a local school...

Don't know if I would trust that.. First of all there are a lot of mountains in NH and they are filled with granite which makes a problem for radio waves to travel. So if one spot has cell service the house next door might not. There is only one corner of my house that I can use my cell...

I agree

Yes, and no. Perhaps some are lazy. I don't believe that they get their news from the AP.. The AP usually picks up stories from a reporter (who gets paid for it) and then it releases it.. Some reporters send directly to AP also.. I usually get my information from the most direct source...
