    From the Orleans County weekly newspaper, this happened about 20 minutes west of where the guy drove his tractor over a bunch of Sheriff's Cruisers, and a couple miles from where I grew up :lol3

    Woman charged with attempted murder in North Troy stabbing

    Police: 'I hope I killed him,' suspect says

    ====================================================
    A Newport Center woman denied charges of attempted second-degree
    murder and aggravated domestic assault Friday following a knife attack that
    left her husband, Sean Ahlquist, injured, the police said.

    “I hope I killed him,” Jennifer Ahlquist, 40, told Orleans County Sheriff’s
    Deputy Jonathan MacFarlane as he escorted her out of a trailer in North
    Troy on Thursday, court records say. Her husband was found motionless
    inside.

    MacFarlane said he returned to the trailer and secured the bloody 8-inch
    steak knife with a 4-inch blade, a court affidavit stated.


    Sean Ahlquist, 42, needed two stitches to close the stab wound to the
    right chest and was later released from North Country Hospital. He reported
    to state police that he and his wife had marital problems for a month, and
    he told her he wanted to separate, State Trooper Deb Munson said in an
    affidavit.

    MacFarlane and the Vermont State Police responded to a trailer rented by
    Allison Whittemore, 19, of North Troy at about 4:25 p.m. Thursday when she called 911.

    State Trooper Brian Connor said Jennifer Ahlquist arrived unannounced
    and uninvited at Whittemore’s home on Vermont 105, assaulted Whittemore
    and scuffled with Sean Ahlquist before grabbing the knife.

    “I’m going to kill you. I’m going to kill your little girlfriend,” Whittemore
    quoted Jennifer Ahlquist as saying, according to court papers.

    Whittemore hid in the bathroom and heard Sean Ahlquist yell that he had
    been stabbed and to call 911, Connor said.

    Whittemore, who turns 20 on Saturday, sustained minor injuries and
    scratches to the face and neck, police said.

    The defendant told police she was driving down Vermont 105 planning to
    visit her grandchildren when she spotted her tan Ford Explorer parked
    behind a residence, Connor said. She said she knocked several times and
    eventually entered and found her husband of 26 years on a bed with
    Whittemore and “snapped,” Connor said.

    Her husband and Whittemore said they were not in bed when his wife
    entered, court records state.

    Judge Howard VanBenthuysen ordered Ahlquist held without bail at the
    request of the Orleans County State’s Attorney’s Office.

    Ahlquist also pleaded not guilty Friday to a felony charge of unlawful
    trespass and a misdemeanor count of simple assault on Whittemore.


    The attempted-murder charge carries a possible sentence of 20 years to
    life. The other three charges carry a combined 19 years in prison and
    $28,000 in fines.

    How much of your ride is pavement?Does Vermont require off road sticker or would Ct street plates be OK?
    I would like more information on trails and skill level needed.

    VT doesn't require off road registration. Your street plates are fine.

    The rides are not officially organized. You need to talk around and find a group to ride with. I road two track with some other small bikes last year (DRZ-400) that I met around the fire. We cross paths with some big bike groups on a few of the many dirt secondary roads in the area. Some groups covered a lot of miles of tar/gravel roads on Saturday.

    The tar roads lead to gravel roads. The gravel roads lead to jeep trails (lots of houses off the beaten path). The jeep trails lead to atv trails. Lots of elevation changes, but not super technical. The biggest things are the "rain bars". They are diagonal ditches cut across the trail for erosion control. They will wear you out after a few hours.

    One little story about fornication and here they come. Must be thinking VT girls are easy. Be careful you don't meet up with the crazy one with the knife.

    Anyone know a dirty route to/from camp? 2 track or class 4-6 is good.

    Hey everybody!
    The hated KLR of doom will be making an appearance this year after all.

    Oddly enough it's BECAUSE I'm moving out of Barnard!

    I'm moving to Grafton, VT to take over the historic Grafton Forge, and that means I need to be in VT for the weekends. (I normally go out of state for a few months in the fall)

    So, fuel up your Zippos, bring gas!

    ER, I mean... ShrineClown.

    Is there camping space?

    In, Meat, Tent!

    You don't actually NEED the tent unless it's raining too hard to stay up all night to feed the fire...
