CONCORD, NH – One now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t tiny piece of evidence – the only thing that may connect Logan Clegg to the
A defense witness who is an expert in analyzing digital photos punched holes in the prosecution’s case that a troublesome shell casing tied to the shooting deaths of Djeswende and Stephen Reid was at the crime scene before it was found May 20, 2022, a month after the Concord couple was shot.
“There’s sufficient evidence” that Clegg may be the person who shot Djeswende and Stephen Reid to death, and all of the indictments will pass to the jury, Kissinger said after hearing the defense and state make their case in a 15-minute motion hearing after the state rested its case Tuesday.

Concord Police Det. Danika Gorham, whose testimony began Tuesday, outlined a painstaking months-long connect-the-dot investigation that led police to Logan Clegg 150 miles away, six months after police believe he shot and killed Djeswende and Stephen Reid.
