District courts may scale back on hours, because its security staff is being cut. Yesterday, the State Supreme Court refused to step in to protect the jobs of part-time district-court security officers who've been laid off. The court suggested the baliffs take their case to the superior court first. Administrative District Court Judge Edwin Kelly says most of the part-time bailiffs have agreed to remain on the job for now at reduced pay, but he suspects they won't stay long. Kelly says he'll have to start cutting full-time officers next month. And he adds, if there isn't enough security to ensure public safety - the courts will reduce hours in October. |

A Newmarket man has pleaded innocent to the second-degree murder of a Laotian neighbor last month. 35 year -old Richard Labbe is charged with recklessly causing the death of 62-year-old Thung Phetakoune. Labbe broke down in court while expressing sorrow for the death. He said he told the state that he would willingly plead guilty to causing Phetakounes death, but the state would not accept his plea. Authorities allege Labbe pushed Phetakoune causing him to fall and hit his head. Witnesses said they heard Labbe make disparaging comments to Phetakoune beforehand. |
| Disability Protest Return to index of stories... |
A disability rights group is not happy a New Hampshire conference will include a college professor who says euthanasia should be legal for some severely disabled people. The Governors Commission on Disability conference will include Princeton bioethics professor Peter Singer. He supports euthanasia for severely disabled infants aged up to 28 days old and for some adults. Not Dead Yet, a national activist group, said the invitation was appalling. Michael Jenkins, the commission director, said he invited Singer to let his opponents have at him. Other speakers at the October fifth conference include advocates for people with disabilities. Governor Jeanne Shaheen's spokeswoman, Pamela Walsh, says Singer's viewpoints are despicable and that the best way way to defend against them is to make sure people know about them. |
