It would be, but the murder case could be jeopardized if any legally-improper connection were made to that subject.

Although the details will come out eventually, the AG shouldn't divulge that kind of information now: Think back to when you've read, "The subject was previously in jail on another charge".

If he's been improperly questioned by police while behind bars, the jury is more likely to convict him based on reputation rather than on the evidence presented of the crime charged. (Improving chances of an appeal).

I'm both frustrated and impressed by the silence from the Attorney General's office: Senior Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Strelzin must run a tight ship. (So, yes).

Yes...and...no.

As yet, however, there are no indications that this is a premeditated murder.

I'm reading locally that the silence is creating uncertainty and fright among some Wolfeboroians.

Although I'm going to contradict every Wolfeboro blog and forum AGAIN, the word from the Attorney General's Office is that:

"...there is no indication the public is at risk..."
