WMUR is reporting of ANOTHER fire in Berlin.....I lost count of all the fires that that town has had in the past couple years! That's 2 fires in 1 week! Are these fires suspicious (arson?) or are they caused by people cutting corners heating their houses?

It sounds like their little fire bug is back

Incredible! I can't get over how many there have been.

being from berlin everybody has a hunch.....i guess in the downtown fire last saturday they used over 2.2 million gallons on the fire.....on a typical day the town uses 800,000 gallons just from everyday use......i heard it was a tough one to get under control.....espicially with the temps being where they were.....anyways, many of the buildings that are disappearing are unoccupied and have been long standing......i personally think they are being set not by a hoodlum, but by someone else that just wants to get rid of the buildings.......i guess you can try to read between the lines on that quote......i would bet some of them are true fires, but i now those 4 story apartment buildings are death traps and should of been torn down long ago......the mainstreet and some of the town does need a face lift and maybe this will help......if you notice no one is getting hurt except for the one a few years back.....i don't know....they need to stop

The more the economy tanks the more there will be, for any number of reasons already listed!

BERLIN, N.H. -- A man has been arrested and charged with six counts of arson in connection with a string of fires in Berlin.

Kerry Tibbetts, 27, of Berlin, was arraigned Wednesday on one arson charge in relation to a fire at 645 First Ave. Bail was set at $50,000 cash. Police said he would be arraigned on the five remaining counts Friday afternoon.

Berlin police said they investigated the fires with the Fire Department and the state Fire Marshal's Office over the past two years. In addition to the First Avenue fire, Tibbetts was charged in connection with fires at 648 First Ave., 844 Third Ave., 486 Goebel St., 30 Main St. and 468 Champlain St.

LANCASTER, N.H. - A man charged with setting six fires in Berlin, N.H., tells police in court paperwork how he started some of them.

Twenty-seven-year-old Kerry Tibbetts was arraigned Friday on six counts of arson.

In court paperwork, police said Tibbetts told them that in one case, he "poured a lot of gasoline on the building and that the building 'went up like a rocket.'"

Police said Tibbetts also told them that "starting a fire is a type of stress relief for him and that the relief 'will sometimes last for days.'"

According to the paperwork, Tibbetts also told police that he selected certain buildings where he spent time as a child. He said he burned one because father abused him there, according to the paperwork.

In the paperwork, Tibbetts said another building chosen because his mother left the family when they lived there.

I glad they got that maggot. Try a punching bag. Try trimming a bonsai tree. Try self mutilation for God sake.....burning down houses for "relief". I'll show you relief.

Sometime I wish it was the old old days again. Saturday morning....center of town.....set up the gallows....This clown is gonna be put in prison where a head-doctor can coddle him and try to understand why he did what he did. BLAH BLAH BLAH. It bugs me. Michael Addison.....there's another $1,000,000+ out of all our pockets to keep that clown around so that he can appeal. Throw a rope over a tree......

Bring back the days of eye for an eye. People hide behind the beaurocratic bull**censored** that complicates TRUE justice.

Wow. That felt good.

Fishback, I know what you mean. these people don't deserve the time of day. Its frustrating to say the least. Look at that jack a$$ that murdered 2 in Mass and than came up here and murdered Eli Whitney. He got the death penalty only because the feds prosecuted him. Its been 9 years since Eli died. give everyone a break and put him to death already!!!! I knew Eli and him and his family didn't deserve this. He played the blame game too, he said that he tried to call the FBI but got disconnected so he killed 3 people.

I say fire squad. Let me shoot first. Oh sorry I didn't mean to shoot you in the leg, my aim must be off. Oh I hit your other leg. Gee I'm so sorry NOT

I'm a pretty liberal minded person. I know my last post isn't really a demonstration of that. I have a problem with people that don't want to be a productive part of society. If you don't want to be a productive part of socitey, that's ok. Just don't be a DE-structive part of society. If you chose to go that route, that's fine too. Just understand that there are gonna be consequences. I wouldn't consider myself to be a "God fearing" individual. But I do invest some faith into KHARMA! When KHARMA doesn't pan out.....it really aggrevates me. And when KHARMA doesn't pan out and we (society) get the bill....it makes me downright ANGRY!

The GOLDEN RULE mixed with some EYE FOR AN EYE would go along way.

Looks like Judd Greg may get the nod for a position with Obama. What do you say fellas? You think that Governor Lynch would SELL us his position?
