NH families of the missing and murdered demand answers from AG’s office
In New Hampshire, there are about 130 active missing persons and unsolved murder cases under investigation.
At the New Hampshire State House in Concord, families of some of those cases gathered to demand that their loved ones are not forgotten.
Among them was Valerie Haynes Alvarez.
Her niece, Trish Haynes, was last seen in New Hampshire in 2017.
Her dismembered body was found a year later.
Alvarez is frustrated with the way the case has been handled.
“Trish’s case is not an unsolved case. It’s unprosecuted,” she said. “It’s like reliving it. We don’t want to have to keep reliving it, especially in the light of they have not charged the people who did this.”
Julie Murray, the sister of missing UMass student Maura Murray, is a key member of the group organizing the event.
She is urging the New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella’s Office to be more responsive to these families.
Maura Murray has been missing for more than twenty years.
“We want a response to an email. We want a return phone call so that we feel some small sense of hope that somebody cares,” Julie Murray said.
Members of the Attorney General’s staff attended the event and talked to families
In a statement, the AG said resolving cold cases is a top priority.
The daughters of 2015 unsolved murder victim David Oldham, says what’s needed, is very simple.
“Everybody deserves justice. It doesn’t bring them back, but it least gives us answers,” Ashley Pittman, David Oldham’s daughter, said.

CONCORD, NH — From all of us to all of you, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Holidays.
We hope you have a great time with family and friends during this joyous time of the year.
Unlike last year, when it was kinda dreary due to not having any snow, there is a little bit on the ground this year, thankfully. It’s incredible how something as simple as a little white stuff on the ground can make the mood festive.
If you need some posts and videos to get into the holiday spirit, check out some of the ones I put together this season:

This year, I ran out of time and did not get to put together a Christmas lights video. I ran out of time last year, too. However, I’ll make a mental note to do one in 2025; it’s work to put together, but they are a lot of fun.
If you haven’t seen the prior videos, check them out here:

I’ll have a few “Best Of” posts next week, and we can then welcome in the New Year.
Until then, stay safe and enjoy your time with your family and friends.
