Manchester is both Money Magazine’s “Number One Small City in the East” and the biggest city in Northern New England. Manchester is home to skiing, sports teams, Manchester International Airport, and many theaters which make it a fun place live and an easy place to visit.
Recently in Manchester, a Hillsborough County Superior Court jury handed down the first death sentence in New Hampshire since 1949. The defendant Michael Addison was confronted by Officer Briggs and his partner in a Manchester alley and when Addison was ordered to stop, he instead turned and killed Briggs. No date has been scheduled for the execution, but the Manchester jury’s unanimous decision seems to illuminate the peoples’ attitude in such a heavily publicized case.
