NH Country Club Shooting Suspect Makes First Court Hearing
Hunter Nadeau faces second-degree murder for killing Robert DeCesare and injuring others at a country club; authorities found no evidence of a hate-based motive.
- Monday, Hunter Nadeau, 23, waived a formal arraignment via video from Hillsborough County jail at Nashua Circuit Court and Judge Tara Spony set a probable cause hearing for Oct. 1.
- During a wedding reception, the gunman allegedly entered Sky Meadow Country Club armed and opened fire in the Prime restaurant; Nadeau had not worked there for a year.
- One patron was killed, identified as Robert DeCesare, 59, while two other shooting victims and four additional injured patrons were hurt; the Attorney General's Office ruled DeCesare's death a homicide.
- Nadeau now faces one count of second-degree murder and could receive 25 years to life; prosecutors said they will present evidence to a grand jury and have 90 days to seek indictments.
- Community members held a candlelight vigil Sunday, and New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella said `He was making a lot of different statements and it appears to us that it's more likely that those statements were intended to create chaos during the event and that they don't really give us much of a sense of his motive.
