Home invaders turn heel when ‘confronted’ inside (NH)
New Hampshire Union Leader ^ | 9/18/2005 | PAT GROSSMITH

Posted on 09/18/2005 8:23:34 AM PDT by Mr. Mojo

GOFFSTOWN — Two men broke into a Channel Lane home Friday night but “fled immediately” when “confronted” by the homeowner, police said.

Sgt. Pat Sullivan said no further information was being released yesterday because detectives are still gathering evidence in the case. He would not comment when asked if the homeowner confronted them with a gun and would not name the homeowner.

Neighbors, however, told the Sunday News that police were at the home of Michael Boisvert of 15 Channel Lane and went door-to-door asking people if they saw anything.

In a news release, police said the men “fled immediately upon being confronted by the homeowner.”

No one answered a knock at Boisvert’s home yesterday morning. There is no telephone listing for him.

A surveillance camera is mounted above and to the right of the main entrance of his beige sided home situated along the Piscataquog River.

A “No Trespassing” sign is posted on a white picket fence in front of the residence while a decal, with a drawing of a hand holding a revolver pointed outward at a caller, warns:

NOTICE! If you are found here tonight You will be found here tomorrow

Selectman and state representative Bruce Hunter has lived on Channel Lane for more than 20 years.

He said he was watching the ballgame Friday night when an officer knocked on his door. He said police canvassed the entire area.

Hunter said he did not know what happened.

Neighbor Mary Lou Parker of 22 Channel Lane said she was working when police were at Boisvert’s home Friday night. Her son, she said, told her about it.

She said Boisvert is a body builder who has lived at the residence for about eight years.

Parker has lived on the normally quiet street for about two years. She said last year her next-door neighbor was charged with selling drugs. That home is vacant now, she said.

Gary Bilodeau, 43, had lived there. He was charged with possessing a controlled drug with the intent to sell it.

Senior Assistant Attorney General Susan Morrell identified him this year as one of more than a dozen people involved in an alleged drug ring headed by Christopher Bouchard of Manchester.

Bouchard, 33, was living the high life at the time of his arrest, residing in a sprawling North End home on Union Street and driving a $100,000 Mercedes.

The men involved in the Channel Lane home invasion were described as: a black man in his mid-20s to early 30s, about 6 feet tall and weighing 200 pounds, wearing a black sweatshirt; a white man, in his mid-20s to early 30s, about 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-10, weighing 170 pounds. He was wearing a white sweatshirt.

The men fled in a small white car.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Goffstown police at 497-4858.

In another incident described as a home invasion Thursday, a Fremont man was shot to death at 80 Pine St. in Rochester. The Attorney General’s Office has not commented on reports that the man was shot after he broke into the home.

An autopsy revealed that Bryan Gaedtke, 21, died from a single gunshot to the chest.

The residence is the home of Geoff and Jocelynn Hamann and their two children.

The death was ruled a homicide, but Assistant Attorney General Peter Odom said that does not necessarily mean criminal charges will be brought; rather, the term means one human killed another human.

Then don't use the term "Homocide".

Use "Self Defense"

Sigh ... It must be the full moon of August. I needed a road map to follow that story. Of course the mere mention that one of the suspects was black probably blew my concentration out of the water.


I got back on track after I got to the part about the white suspect and the white car ... I think.

Oh good, thanks for the "Armed Citizen Archive"

I am doing a proposal paper for my liberal taught Soc class on women getting their CCW. The point is of course that an armed woman is less likely to be raped, killed.

Let's see, black man ... black sweatshirt. White man ... white sweatshirt. Was there mention of someone wearing a green sweatshirt :)?

That should be easy enough, if you were allowed to bring a gun to the class room. But... well...

This will undoubtedly go down in the anti-gunner "statistics" as being "another case of a gun-wielding thug threatening 'children'."

(Remember that anti-gunners list 19-25 year-old gangbangers as "children" in their mortality stats.)

I did a presentation on basically the same for my Contemporary American Society class. Got thumbs up and "I agree's" from some of the students. Pretty cool!

http://www.gunowners.org/fs0404.htm

Rapes averted when women carry or use firearms for protection

* Orlando, FL. In 1966-67, the media highly publicized a safety course which taught Orlando women how to use guns. The result: Orlando’s rape rate dropped 88% in 1967, whereas the rape rate remained constant in the rest of Florida and the nation.

* Nationwide. In 1979, the Carter Justice Department found that of more than 32,000 attempted rapes, 32% were actually committed. But when a woman was armed with a gun or knife, only 3% of the attempted rapes were actually successful.

Misery loves company. However, when the "pinging poster" is on your side, as well as others of some note, it is much easier on the psyche. ;)


BTW ... Keep up the great work.

thanks a bunch

A Story, different class same liberal BS:

Several years ago when MI first passed the updated CCW law and there was a big liberal media to do about it...
I did a paper on the law for my liberal Legal Assisant Ethics class. My class hand out was the entire CCW law! I had a an awesome flimsy presentation also if I do say so myself

After my presentation I asked if there were any questions anticipating some arguements
You could hear a pin drop!
Not even Miss Liberal Teacher
One of my finer moments!!

heh heh! Fun, isn't it? Anytime I can apply the Second Amendment to an assignment, I do so!

I also did a research paper on CCW for Wisconsin for Written Comm. It was twice the length of what was required, and I had a ton of references. Charts, maps, tables... It was a labor of love! He graded me very well on it.

It's too bad the first two were able to get away. The guy who was killed chose the wrong profession, and he paid for it with his life. Stupid criminals. All of them.

Then don't use the term "Homocide".

I know. Here in Alabama it is not a crime to kill someone - only to illegally kill someone. I would have been ruled "so sad...too bad" here. Same in Texas I believe.
