Eric Spofford, formerly tied to New Hampshire's largest addiction treatment network, is now facing serious legal repercussions following accusations that he organized vandalism against journalists. Following an investigative report by Lauren Chooljian, Spofford has been indicted by a grand jury for allegedly paying an associate $20,000 to vandalize the homes of reporters from New Hampshire Public Radio. This incident reflects a troubling trend of violence against journalists in the U.S., coinciding with alarming events such as the murder of reporter Jeff German.
Now comes this grand jury indictment against Spofford. It accuses Spofford of having devised a scheme to harass and terrorize Chooljian and the other victims.
Federal prosecutors later charged four men - at least one of whom, Eric Labarge, was an associate of Mr. Spofford's - with organizing or conducting the vandalism.
