Show notes

The Benoit family lived on Main Street, in Kingston, Ma. Melissa was an eighth grader at a local catholic school. The family had suffered a tragic loss of the Dad, Richard Benoit. On September 15, 1990, Melissa visited a friend in the afternoon and then paid her respects at her dad's grave, she was struggling with that life altering loss. She walked from the cemetery and was never seen alive again. The FBI and the Kingston Police were soon alerted and one of the largest searches in Massachusetts history was soon undertaken. The investigation eventually focused on Henry Meinholz, a neighbor who lived fifty feet from the Benoit family. Meinholz was a deacon at a local church and he taught Sunday School. Thirteen year old Melissa Benoit was soon found in a shallow grave. She had suffered unimaginable horror at the hands of this "neighbor". Kingston would never be the same again.

Pam Smart (REPLAY) We know who, but why? Did Pam think she'd get away with this crackpot scheme?? Feb 20, 2022

Show notes

Pam Smart was highly educated with a handsome new husband and a career many would envy. She manipulated a fifteen year old boy into thinking she loved him. Naturally though there was only one obstacle. Pam's husband Greg. Pam asked young Billy to kill her husband and in typical teenage fashion, Billy told half of his social circle. Pam went to a school board meeting, but left her home's rear door open for her teenage lover and his dimwitted friends. Billy Flynn, Patrick Randall and JR Lattime conspired to commit murder. The conspiracy quickly crumbled. The trio served most of their lives in prison for this ambush home invasion-homicide. Pam Smart maintains that yes, she had an affair with a minor, but she did not ask Billy Flynn to kill her husband. She is serving a life sentence and will not likely, be paroled, if she maintains total innocence in this brutal crime.

Brianna Maitland 2004- Brianna's disappearance is a true whodunit, Its believed that her "friends" know more than they're saying Jan 24, 2022

Show notes

Brianna craved independence and she was on her way to life goals she had set. She appeared to fall into a tough crowd that was involved in hard drugs. Some poor decisions led to some teenage strife. She departed her job late at night and her car was found the next day at an old landmark in the area. The police seemingly could not ascertain that her car, abandoned with doors open and items strewn about, was a crime scene. That set the negative tone going forward, at least in terms of the investigation. Precious time was lost at the beginning of the investigation and Brianna was never seen again.

Kimberly Cates Part 2- This case cries out for the ultimate sanction, yet 3 of 5 will be paroled. Jan 17, 2022

Show notes

Home invasion homicide should trigger the ultimate sanction in this country, nothing less. These monsters plotted executed, and celebrated the invasion of the Cates home and the destruction of their lives. Steven Spader and Christopher Gribble will die in prison. Autumn Savoy provided an alibi and helped dispose of bloody clothing and weapons has already been released from prison. William Marks and Quinn Glover will likely be freed by 2029, these sanctions simply do not provide justice for the Cates family or the rest of the community. New Hampshire was changed forever by these monsters.

Kimberly Cates-New Hampshire's most brutal and notorious homicide Jan 08, 2022

Show notes

In October 2009 17 yr old Steven Spader and 19 yr old Christopher Gribble masterminded the most brutal and senseless home invasion murder in New Hampshire history. A team of losers murdered a mother in her bed and used a machete and a knife against an innocent family. Several of those involved will be paroled. This deranged group celebrated everything they did. Capital punishment was certainly warranted in this case. Tune in today and share your hometown podcast!
