Tucker Cockerline, a 33-year-old from Salem, New Hampshire, has been sentenced to 27 months in prison and three years of supervised release for his role in a conspiracy to stalk and harass two journalists from New Hampshire Public Radio (NHPR). The harassment was in retaliation for an article published in March 2022 by journalist Lauren Chooljian, detailing allegations of sexual misconduct by Eric Spofford, founder of Granite Recovery Centers. Cockerline, along with co-conspirators Eric Labarge, Michael Waselchuck, and Keenan Saniatan, vandalized the homes of the journalists and their family members using bricks and red spray paint. The coordinated attacks included spray-painting derogatory terms and phrases like “JUST THE BEGINNING” on the properties. Labarge and Waselchuck have also pleaded guilty, while Saniatan is expected to plead guilty in an upcoming court hearing.
