New Hampshire GOP Event Vandalism Leads to Arrest, Disturbing Find
In an alarming turn of events, Lawrence Anthony Dunlap, aged 37, found himself under arrest for purportedly defacing nearly a dozen vehicles parked outside a Republican event in New Hampshire. This discovery led to a search of his home, which brought to light weapons, a “manifesto”, and other troubling items. Police apprehended Dunlap after connecting him to the vandalism that took place at the Christa McAuliffe Auditorium at Concord High School during a bi-annual GOP meet on April 13.
“It seems as if someone knew there was a Republican event going on at the high school, and this was their chance to tell Republicans they hate us,” GOP delegate Di Lothrop remarked in the wake of the incident. “Divisiveness at its worst!”
In addition to the havoc wreaked on the parked cars, reports of threats made at a similar time also came to light. Through an obtained surveillance video, Concord Police Det. Sgt. Benjamin Mitchell recounted, a bearded, long-haired suspect could be seen on a long skateboard near the vandalized vehicles.
Once Dunlap was identified as the suspect, he was promptly arrested. A subsequent search warrant executed at his residence brought some alarming discoveries.
According to the police, Dunlap’s home contained “firearms, a manifesto, suicide notes, and a bag containing zip ties, masks, and gloves.” A weapon identified as a “medieval mace” was also among the items seized from his possessions. Deputy Chief John Thomas disclosed the finding of eight guns, including an AR-15.
In addition to these physical items, Dunlap’s online activities also raised concerns. He had been vocal about his political views, dubbing the U. S. Capitol riots of Jan. 6 as “domestic terrorism” and denouncing former President Donald Trump as a dictator.
WMUR-TV reported a section of the manifesto that had been obtained via the search warrant, which read, “I can’t continue to exist for everyone else. I truly despise humanity and all the filth we have accepted as acceptable. I’m sorry for the pain I know I will cause with this decision.”
Meanwhile, Dunlap’s defense attorney, Jim Rosenberg, sought to decouple the items found in the raid from the act of vandalism. “This is a person with no significant prior criminal record, who has struggled with regard to his professional relationships work-wise recently,” Rosenberg argued in court.
Despite Rosenberg’s efforts, the judge refused bail, citing concern for both the community and Dunlap’s safety. Dunlap now faces 11 felony counts of criminal mischief.

The attorney for the 17-year-old accused of attempting to murder Ricky Pearsall, a first-round draft pick for the 49ers, is challenging the charges. According to the defense, the incident, which occurred during an attempted robbery earlier this month, does not constitute attempted murder.
“It was a rather extended struggle between Mr. Pearsall and my client,” stated public defender Robert Dunlap in an interview with David Lombardi of TheAthletic.com.
“They were really fighting back and forth on the sidewalk. As you might imagine, Mr. Pearsall gets the best of it. He does kind of — I don’t know if you’ve ever wrestled or not — a nice hip toss and throws my client to the ground and ends up on top of him. . . . I think [the video] supports that this is an attempted robbery and not an attempted murder.”
Dunlap also addressed and refuted a report alleging that his client had brought a gun to school.
“My client did not have a gun at school,” Dunlap said. “It’s a false report.”
Despite these arguments, prosecutors have chosen to charge Dunlap’s client with attempted murder. However, they have not yet determined if the young defendant will be tried as an adult.
The next court hearing for this case is scheduled for September 26.

A son, armed and vigilant, responded to a potential burglary at his mother’s unoccupied home in West Virginia during the early hours of the morning. The encounter ended fatally for the alleged intruder.
Authorities reported that the son, checking on the residence around 3:45 a.m., encountered an individual who turned toward him holding an object.
“Unwise move on the part of the intruder.”
The Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office received a call from a male stating he had just shot an intruder at his mother’s Inwood home on Winchester Avenue.
Upon arrival, deputies discovered a male lying face down with a gunshot wound. Immediate life-saving measures were administered until emergency medical services arrived, but the individual was pronounced dead shortly after.
The deceased was identified as 38-year-old Joshua Boone from Williamsport, Maryland. The sheriff’s office confirmed that Boone’s next of kin had been notified.
The investigation revealed that the son, identified by WDVM-TV as Michael Marshal, had gone to the home after hearing about a possible break-in. Marshal told deputies that Boone turned toward him “with something in his hand,” prompting Marshal to fire his handgun.
Boone was located in the garage of the residence, where the fatal shot occurred.
The Department of Criminal Investigators processed the scene for evidence and is conducting a thorough investigation into the shooting. Once the investigation is complete, the case will be presented to the Berkeley County Prosecutors Office.
Authorities are urging anyone with information regarding this case to contact the Criminal Investigations Division at 304-267-7000.

Just another leftist nut case whos crime will never make it to the mainstream media. If voter fraud does not give the win to Biden in November, then look for the left to lose its mind with more riots and looting and assaults. Stay armed people
