On July 12, 2016, my post mentioned an encouraging sign in the Stacey Burns murder case. A source informed me that two New Hampshire State Police detectives drove to Wolfeboro and interviewed this source for over an hour about new information which seemed pertinent to the case. At the end of that interview, my source was told that they would “follow up” on that information.
This would seem to me to mean that the investigators would check out that information by going directly to the person claiming to know who killed Stacey Burns. While in Wolfeboro for the book signing this last weekend, I interviewed this person myself. The story told is a fascinating one and one which I would think the police could validate or dismiss in a very short time with the resources available to them.
It has been almost six weeks since that initial interview. In that time, no one in law enforcement has approached the individual for any kind of follow-up. Here are some conclusions that might logically be drawn from this. You choose whichever ones fit your idea of an explanation.
- The police know this individual and have already investigated his claims thoroughly.
- The police do not feel that either my source or the person mentioned in the initial interview have sufficient credibility for them to take the time to investigate the claims.
- The police already have their suspect and would rather not have any other possibilities muddy the waters.
- There is, indeed, a conspiracy surrounding Stacey’s death, a conspiracy reaching into many levels of the Wolfeboro community and even beyond.
- Despite being an “ongoing” investigation, the murder of Stacey Burns is not on a high priority list for anyone except her friends and family who continue to work to keep it in the public eye.
Three months into the eighth year, folks . . .

As the source who interviewed with the state police recently, I can assure the readers that I have sufficient credibility. A former resident of the area, I come to town every summer to relax and unwind. I know lots of people who have lived in town their entire lives. I have heard the rumors over the years about this murder and while 2 of the suspects seem obvious, I have always had the nagging feeling that someone and something entirely else was going on and is going on. I have learned to listen to instinct.
My story is this: while waiting for dinner at a local restaurant, I started talking with a man who has lived in the area for 4 years (not a local). When the conversation waned, I brought up the Stacey Burns murder (as it is always on my mind when I am visiting) Without hesitation or provocation, this man tells me that it’s funny I should mention this – he works with a guy whose ex-girlfriend says she killed Stacey. He told me his co-workers name and what he did for a living and where he was currently working. After sleeping on it, I decided to call the Wolfeboro police with this information. An hour later, I received a call from the State Police who asked if they could interview me in person. When the interview was done, they DID say that they would follow up with this information. Apparently they never have.
Based on all of the above, I would choose scenario # 4.
I wonder, would the interviewee tell the story here anonymously?
Power is an illusion. It can be brought down. This case can be solved. What is the truth?
Believe it or not this kind of ‘thing’ happens alot in prolonged murder cases. For example, 2 years after the murder, Scott Brodrick told Dicky Mullen that I confessed the murder to him. Dicky told his x wife (an attorney) and she insisted that he contact the Police with that info. I would love to have been there when the crown vicks and the escalades pulled into Dr. Brodricks driveway and those shinny headed,shinny shoed, slick talking detectives summoned him out (I had not spoken to Skiddy Breadhead in years). Then a year later the same kind of thing happened again with Brownie and Hunter. For some strange, sick reason people just love to get involved in this kind of thing. My belief is that Stacey’s case has been solved, it WAS the husband, but because, one, there is NO pressure from the public or the family to make the arrest and two, they could lose, that Gov. Hassan and her puppet ag, Joe Foster have stonewalled this for the next bunch of politicians to deal with.
I can answer that. She had many that she spoke to daily or at least every other day.
Patiently Watching and Waiting: Was one of “best girlfriends” interviewed on 20/20?
No she was not. Mr. J Vittum should actually know the answer.
I knew there was a connection. My gut told me all along. Only one of us has the missing link it seems. What is it going to take to bring this shit down? What are we dealing with here? Corruption? Immorality? Evil? Sin? No one should be able to take the life of a person and get away with it. If the people in authority won’t (or can’t) respond, then you go the next level. If they won’t (or can’t) respond, then you go to the next level. You keep going until someone listens and pays attention and DOES something! We are talking about murder. Precious life extinguished. Why was this done and what CAN BE DONE?
