Four arrested in brutal murder of NH mom

[Jim]

Looks like possibly feral teenager types in this murder. I doubt she had access to a gun to protect herself and her daughter.

Note the comment about how people in Mont Vernon routinely "don't lock their doors." Coming from Boston, it blows my mind that some folks here in NH still have that attitude. Being in a rural area does NOT make you immune from crime.

I think some people are very, very naieve and then when something like this happens they are shocked. I'm not shocked at all by this. This is the kind of crap that goes on sometimes and you have to take steps to protect yourself and your family.

These little bastards should have been shot and killed the minute they started breaking into the house. One round after another should have been headed their way until they ran away or were killed.

Four local young men are under arrest in connection with the violent stabbing death of a Mont Vernon mother and the vicious attack on her daughter.

Steven Spader, 18, Christopher Gribble, 19, both of Brookline, William Marks, 18 and Quinn Glover, 17, both of Amherst, will be arraigned late this morning in Milford District Court, according to the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office.

Spader and Gribble are charged with first degree murder in the death of Kimberly Cates, 42, and attempted murder in the attack on her 11-year-old daughter. Marks and Glover are charged with burglary, conspiracy to commit burglary and armed robbery.

Cates' body was found Oct. 4 inside her 4 Trow Road home. Her 11-year-old daughter was alive but severely injured when police arrived at the family's ranch-style home, one of four houses on a dirt road.

We're probably going to be funding their accomadations at the local jail for the next X amount of years. Wipe them off the planet for good and be done with it.

Here is an earlier story about people moving to Mont Vernon to "get away from crime" and that sort of thing. Note the comments by the antis in the article:

That's ridiculous. People are just stupid. It's very simple unarmed = defenseless future victim

Although...you do get the occasional commenter who gets it:
"My heart goes out to this woman's family and friends.

I wanted to put my two cents in on the crime and gun comments. There will be violence and crime any where you go. So for Spencer in New Boston good luck finding a town or state with no crime. For Mom in Mont Vernon, think before you post...the doors open from the inside out, it just doesn't allow people INTO the building. I am a mom whose husband works nights, my best protection is being prepared. I have two large dogs that sleep near the front door, I have .357 SIG in my bedroom and a Louisville slugger under my bed. If an intruder got into my house he's not going to hurt my family without a fight.

This is why I love my aussie. He is very friendly and barks at anyone who gets within 10ft or so of the patio. The big ball of fluff prevented a home invasion and the if bad guy decided to still try and get in would be having 2 230gr. .45 ACP center mass.

The UL put up a picture of one of the freaks.


Christopher Gribble, one of the teens facing first degree murder charges in the killing of Kimberly Cates, posted this webcam photo of himself on his Facebook page. He described the knife, which he named "Maxam," as his favorite.

I disagree. If they are guilty, they should have to SEE the execution coming. Let them face it directly.

Oh-oh, I see some gaming headphones. Any bets on how long it will take before someone tries to blame this on Counter Strike (or whatever "violent" video game the kids are playing these days?)
