The man who stabbed to death 22-year-old Dover resident Michael Barrett last year was justified in his use of deadly force under the law, according an investigation by state and local authorities released Friday. Barrett’s father disagreed with the finding, saying “they murdered my son.”
New Hampshire Attorney General Gordon J. MacDonald’s investigation states Bailey Manning, 22, stabbed Barrett March 11, 2017, at 18 Edgewood Road in Durham, where Manning was living at the time with two roommates. Manning told investigators the details of the incident, stating he sold drugs to Barrett and used drugs with him and others prior to the deadly confrontation, and Manning’s story was corroborated by others. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
